When you're going to be out all day or if you're traveling, the last thing you want is for your phone to die before you can get home to a charger. Keeping a portable power bank in your bag can get the job done, but they're not all created equal. Some are clunky and will take forever to charge your phone by just 10%. Luckily, Anker makes plenty of great options. Plus, two of our favorites, the Anker Zolo Magnetic Power Bank and Anker MagGo Power Bank, are on sale now at Amazon.
Anker is the biggest name in third-party chargers, and their Zolo Power Bank is one of the best portable chargers out there. With wireless and wired options, it can charge your device multiple times over without delay.
- Wireless and wired options
- Safe low-temperature charging
- Soft, skin-friendly surface
- Bulkier than other Anker models
Our tech experts on the Reviews Team have tested plenty of power banks for our best portable chargers guide, with one of Anker's models coming out on top as the best overall. Available in four colors, the Zolo model features both wireless and wired charging options, with the capacity to get up to two full charges on an iPhone 15 or 1.5 for an iPhone 15 Max. It's made with safety in mind, and charges at a safe low temperature, so you can stick it in your bag or pocket without worrying.
With the launch of Apple's MagSafe-capable iPhones, Anker is upping its game with a line of attractive wireless solutions aptly called MagGo. This one is a lightweight and compact wireless portable charger compatible with iPhones 12 through 14. It magnetically snaps to the phone and can slip back into a pocket or purse for easy, no-hassle charging.

- Smart display
- Prop-up stand
- Lower efficiency charging for non-Apple devices
The MagGo Power Bank improves on Zolo's technology, offering fast wireless charging. In under 45 minutes, it can charge an iPhone 15 up from zero to 50%. With convenient features like a stand to prop up your device while it's charging, you'll barely notice that it's there. The smart display on the side of the power bank also makes it easy to check the charging status of your device at a glance without ever turning it on. Plus, the power bank is available in five fun shades.
With each model having hundreds of five-star ratings, Amazon shoppers also love these power banks. "This Anker power bank has been a game-changer for my iPhone," said one Zolo reviewer. "The magnetic attachment is super strong; it snaps right on and stays put even when I'm walking around. No more fumbling with cables! The wireless charging is so convenient."
Shoppers love the MagGo version for its user-friendly features. "I love that it has a small display showing the battery percentage. No more guessing how much charge is left," said one MagGo reviewer. "One feature I didn't think I would care about but now use all the time is the foldable stand. I prop my phone up while charging, whether I'm on a video call, watching something, or just keeping an eye on notifications. It's super convenient and has become one of my favorite things about this power bank."
With the current discounts on Amazon, both of these power banks are more affordable than ever. Add the Zolo to your cart for just $25 or the MagGo for $70 while the deal lasts.
