If you have iPhone 12 or iPhone 13, you should seriously use Apple’s MagSafe accessory system. Good news! Three of our favorite MagSafe accessories are on sale for Amazon Prime Day: Anker’s MagGo 633 for $96 ($24 off), MagGo 637 for $70 ($30 off)and MagGo 623 for $60 ($20 off). These three are wireless chargers of sorts, but they have a few extra tricks up their sleeves (details below). For the first two, these are the lowest prices we’ve ever tracked.
We strongly recommend using a MagSafe iPhone case because it will not weaken the MagSafe system—MagSafe cases have their own ring of magnets inside. And what do you know? Apple’s official MagSafe cases are all on sale for $39 ($10 off).

Why we love Anker’s MagGo accessories
All three of these Anker MagGo products will allow you to magnetically attach your iPhone to the front, charging your phone wirelessly. All are attractive and well built. I have been using each of them for almost a year without any problems. However, each has unique characteristics.
With the iPhone 12 series, Apple introduced the MagSafe accessory system. On the back of all iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 devices is a ring of magnets that allows you to attach a variety of magnetic accessories to the back of the device, such as portable batteries and even PopSockets. It also makes wireless charging less fussy as you don’t have to precisely place the phone on the pad or stand – the magnets ensure perfect alignment. Cue Jesse Pinkman Magnets GIF.
The MagGo 637 is my personal favorite and has been on my desk the longest. This little sphere has three AC outlets on the back, two USB-A ports and two USB-C, one of which can produce 65 watts of power (enough to charge a MacBook). It’s a nice docking station system that lets you get rid of the power cord by the legs and organize your cables a little better.
The MagGo 633 is my second favorite. First, it can be charged wirelessly two device. Your iPhone plugs into the rectangular base, but you can charge a case for wireless headphones (or another device) on the circular base. But here’s the thing: the MagSafe base actually doubles as a portable 5,000mAh power bank. When you’re ready to leave home, just pull out the power bank and throw it in your pocket – you’ve got a lightweight battery to charge your iPhone, without cables. When you get home, plug the power supply into the docking station. It will start charging automatically, so you never have to remember to top up your power bank. It can also charge the battery and your iPhone at the same time. It’s a genius system.
Finally, it’s here MagGo 623. This one is also a dual wireless charger. You can magnetically attach your iPhone to the circular base to charge it. This puck-like top hinges so you can adjust the angle. Push it all the way and the circular top of the cylinder can also charge a pair of wireless headphones. As much as looks like as a portable battery, it is not, and will need to plug into a wall outlet via the USB-C port to charge your devices.
