Apple's MagSafe Battery Pack will boost your iPhone 12—but for how long?

Got an iPhone 12 or iPhone 12 Pro and always seem to be running out of battery? Apple has a new accessory to help you out: The MagSafe Battery Pack (fave. co/2WGFueK) is available for $99.

As the name of the product implies, the battery connects to the iPhone 12 via MagSafe, the magnetic connector located on the back of the phone. According to the product description on Apple’s website, the MagSafe Battery Pack “automatically charges, so there’s no need to turn it on or off.” However, you can’t use two MagSafe products at once, so if you’re using the wallet, you will need to swap it out.
