MagSafe Monday: Lisen’s ultra-slim 0.3’’ MagSafe battery is the product Apple should have launched alongside the iPhone 16

Apple released a single version of its MagSafe battery a few years ago but was never upgraded or replaced. It eventually was removed for sale. It was a great product, and I wish it had stayed around. It was never designed to be the biggest battery, but it was great for getting through a heavy-use day. That’s exactly what the LISEN Ultra Slim MagSafe Power Bank offers. It’s what I envision a modern Apple MagSafe battery would look like.

At just 0.3 inches, this power bank is similar to the iPhone 16. It’s comparable in thickness to some MagSafe wallets I’ve used. The same slim profile you’ve expected for holding credit cards now has enough battery to keep your phone alive through a busy day.

Slim and subtle

The LISEN Ultra Slim MagSafe Power Bank’s biggest selling point is its thinness. It’s so slim that it seamlessly attaches to your iPhone without feeling like you’ve added a brick to your device. It’s about as pocket-friendly as you can get for a power bank, making it a perfect companion for those who value portability and minimalism.

This isn’t the bulky power bank you’re used to seeing. It’s so think that you might even forget it’s there when you’re using it. And while 5,000mAh isn’t the highest capacity you can buy, it’s more than enough for most day-to-day needs. Think of it as a backup for when you’re on the go. It’s not designed to give you 2-3 full recharges or get you through a weekend.

Fast charging, minimal fuss

Despite its slim size, the LISEN Ultra Slim doesn’t skimp on performance. It can charge your iPhone to 100% in just two hours. Whether you’re heading to offsite meetings, running a bunch of errands, or just trying to make it through a marathon day of travel, this power bank keeps you powered without feeling like you’re carrying around a brick.

Thin as a MagSafe wallet

One of the most unique aspects of the LISEN Ultra Slim is how closely it resembles a MagSafe wallet. This power bank feels just as natural for anyone already used to using a MagSafe wallet. During my testing, I often left it on all day and forgot it was there—even long after it had run out of power.

Wrap up on LISEN Ultra Slim MagSafe

The LISEN Ultra Slim MagSafe Power Bank isn’t trying to be the most largest MagSafe battery option on the market—it’s trying to be the most convenient. It’s for people who want a MagSafe way for getting a little extra juice but not trying to make it last for a long weekend.

If you’ve been on the hunt for a power bank that doesn’t scream, “I won’t be around wired power for 4 days” this might be the perfect solution. With its thin design and solid performance, the LISEN Ultra Slim MagSafe Power Bank proves that sometimes, less really is more when it comes to chargers.

You can buy it from Amazon or LISEN in multiple color options.
