Review: Anker’s 100Mah Maggo Slim Bank is the most delicate so far

ANKER is famous for its charging portable accessories, from wireless charging to power transformers. However, Power Banks is likely to be the company for the first time. In a sea of ​​similarly designed performances, ANKER stands out as a prominent and worthy of trust in space. Earlier this year, the company launched the Maggo 2.0 charging products from the next generation, including ANKER MAGGO Power Bank (10K, SLIM).

The line that corresponds to the Maggo 2.0 collection is the ability to charge ANKER is its support for the latest QI2 wireless standard. Depending on the Magsafe from Apple, QI2 is magnetic alignment, attachment, and peak wireless charging from 15 watts. But does ANKER MAGGO Power Bank (10K, Slim) make the reinforced and constructive building bank the most reliable power bank to date? Is it worth a place in our brief list of the best energy banks?

Price, availability and specifications

ANKER announced the first wave of Maggo 2.0 products on September 5, 2024. There were two entrances to the collection that was 10,000 mAh per hour Energy banks; One focused on Apple Watch, 10K, Slim (appeared here), designed for smartphone service.

Skilled watches at $ 75, making this new input cheaper for $ 15 than ANKER power bank. This is before the (repeated) sales that the brand seems to be working.

Anker sells Maggo Power Bank (10K, Slim) at four finishes: Aurora White (in the picture in this review), Black Stone, Aura Pink and Teal Oasis.

What is the use of ANKER MAGGO 10,000mah Slim Power Bank?

More portable and adaptable

The entire Maggo 2.0 accessories shares a clean aesthetic and it seems that it takes the sermon from natural materials, such as stone. The non -brilliant end in the round upper part of the Slim technically may be made from 75 % of recycled plastic after 75 %, but the texture and the way in which the light strikes are similar to the characteristics of soft marble.

The edge of this specified energy bank is a parameter through a continuous metal strip, which adds strength to the construction and a distinct touch, with the permission of its wonderful feeling and polished edges, which shed light in certain angles. Ensure wore a flat wireless charging surface with a silicone layer adding an additional grip, which facilitates its recovery from a pocket or bag, with it also helping to adhere to the back of your phone, and works alongside the built -in magnet.

Although the company that already offers the power bank that is compatible with the Qi2, 100,000 mAh, the Slim magic is its relatively restricted profile. The previous Maggo, which was recorded at 0.78 inches (19.8 mm), was shown, while this new alternative provides the same large battery during the measurement of more than 25 % thinner (0.58 inches or 14.7 mm). Therefore, the device is more susceptible to pocket and less interfering in the hand while using your phone. It is, in fact, the deserted bank of 10,000 mAh per hour so far.

QI2 support guarantees the maximum of 15W when wirelessly charges. But this also means that despite the similarities with Magsafe, this open standard provides wider support for technology speed and magnetic attachment. Now, the options are minimal behind iPhone; HMD Skyline is the only one smartphone that corresponds to the Qi2 at the time of writing this report, although Slim will work with other Android phones through cases compatible with Magsafe.

In terms of juice, the number of miles will vary based on your device’s capacity and temperature. (Anker’s Activeshield 2.0 technology monitors the operating temperature inside the thinner to maintain safe charging behavior.) But the company quotes slightly more than 1.8 full recharge to iPhone 15 Pro (which is its own battery itself 3,274 mAh).

For speed, I managed to recharge 15 Pro to 38 % after 30 minutes, reached 50 % in less than 40, while Skyline HMD that I called for this review (with a 4600 mAh battery) 31 % after 30 minutes and 50 % after 55 minutes.

The shock of 30 watts is charged inside and outside (the model that has no head in 20W) is a single main charging feature is the slim lords on its predecessor. Provided that you have a charger compatible with a PD that comes out of at least 30 watts, you can re -fill your device at a double speed (compared to wireless charging), and getting more longevity from the power bank, as well, as it is lost less than its capacity on an area of ​​10,000 mAh per hour as heat. Recharge the iPhone 15 Pro via a 27W wire connection means that it reaches 51 % of the charging after 30 minutes.

Slim is also faster, with a continuous re -Power bank at a rate of 25 % every 30 minutes. In the test, fully re -charging took place for two hours (half an hour faster than Ensen’s quotes within its official characters). And if you are curious, you can also re -fill the thinness with wireless connection while charging your device wirelessly.

What is bad in the Bank of Anker Mago 10,000 mAh per hour?

Stability, alignment and clarity

Reducing the fats to grant SLIM the same name, and a new silhouette comes more than that, with some additional concessions, compared to the former Maggo Power, which has an area of ​​10,000 mAh in ANKER.

Perhaps the most frustrating change is an integrated Kickstand loss. This will not be very bad if you can stand in a straight position, but in the case of iPhone 15 Pro, the charging panel alignment with the Magsafe Magnet Safin means that the bottom of the thinness sits below the iPhone base directly. As such, it is just tips for the front (the first screen) if it is left not supported. The problem is more apparent on the HMD horizon, which sits the Qi2 magnetic beef on its back. As a result, you can only set your phone below the slim face on a flat surface, assuming that you still want to see the screen.

I like the Slim has one button to enable/disable the Connect immediate feature (with a five -second printing press) or shipping (with a second piston). But although a single press reveals the remaining fees of the Energy Bank, it is only transported using four LED lights, each indicating 25 % of the total battery capacity. Although it is functionally good, after seeing the in -depth ideas that are offered the previous model, with its colored integrated smart view (charging rate, the remaining battery in hours/minutes, time to recharge in hours/minutes), and four LED lights, from paradoxes, to leave you relatively in the dark.

The silicon fascia that provides a fist in the hand and the back of the back of your device is a double -border sword, as it also sticks to dirt and particles easily. Set the thinness on a dirty cafe table or throw it into the Acting jeans, and you will likely have to spend time wiping it before capturing it on the back of your device.

Should you buy it?

At slimming below the current QI2, which has an area of ​​10,000 mAh, it is clear that it was denied that this new version of Maggo 2.0. But if you want to rest and longevity for such a deer wireless power bank without additional enlargement, the Slim is located near the front of the package at the present time.

Its design is elegant, as it seems that the colors available are aimed at completing a set of tastes and fashion, while the balance of transportation against the capacity is indescribable. It is a shameful thing that Kickstand and silicone go like this dirt magnet, but these are the shortcomings that I can overlook.
