The best Qi2 batteries for iPhone and Pixel

이 아티클은 최신 Qi2.2 인증 보조배터리가 iPhone 16 이상에서 최대 25W 무선 충전을 지원하며, MagSafe 기반 자석 부착으로 휴대성을 높였다고 설명합니다. Android 진영에서는 Pixel 10 시리즈 일부와 Samsung Galaxy 26의 제한적 지원에 그쳐, Qi2.2 활용 범위는 아직 iPhone 중심입니다. 테스트한 7개 제품 중 빠른 무선 충전 성능을 앞세운 Baseus PicoGo AM52가 주요 추천 제품으로 제시됐습니다.

Qi2.2 보조배터리는 USB-C 고속 충전에 이어 무선 충전에서도 체감 성능을 끌어올리며, 스마트폰 액세서리 시장의 새 경쟁축이 되고 있습니다. 다만 Android 제조사의 표준 채택 속도가 느려, 당분간 MagSafe 생태계와의 호환성이 제품 선택을 좌우할 가능성이 큽니다.

Compact power banks have gotten a lot faster in the past year — and it’s not just their USB-C charging speeds that have received a boost. The newest Qi2.2-certified models can wirelessly charge an iPhone 16 or later at up to 25W. Combine that with their ability to magnetically snap on via MagSafe, and you’ve got yourself an essential add-on that’s easy to take on the go.

Qi2 is a magnetic wireless charging standard that’s based on Apple’s MagSafe tech, so almost all modern iPhones support it. While the latest iPhones offer the fastest charging rates, older models (dating back to the iPhone 12) support 15W Qi2 charging speeds, which is still suitably quick. (The iPhone 17E also maxes out at 15W, and the 16E doesn’t have wireless charging at all.)

On the other hand, Android phones are a mixed bag, with very few models supporting Qi2, let alone Qi2.2. Google’s Pixel 10, 10 Pro, and 10 Pro Fold support Qi2 charging at up to 15W; the 10 Pro XL supports Qi 2.2 at up to 25W. Samsung’s Galaxy 26 lineup is “Qi2 Ready,” which means they can use Qi2 chargers at up to 15W if they have a magnet case. And that’s pretty much it.

We know you want the best, whichever phone you have. Some of you may be willing to pay a lot for it, while others may simply want the best possible model for the least amount of money. Of the seven we tested — which vary in features, design, and charging speed — we landed on two picks that should satisfy most people’s needs. 

The Qi2.2 battery with the fastest wireless charging speeds Baseus PicoGo AM52 Qi2.2 Magnetic Power Bank

Where to Buy: $79.99 $63.99 at Amazon (with Prime, with built-in cable) $79.99 $59.99 at Amazon (no built-in cable) $79.99 $69.99 at Baseus Dimensions: 2.6 x 4 x 0.6 inches, 196 grams / Wireless charging speed: Qi2.2 25W, Qi2 15W / Wired charging speed: Advertised as 45W, but a bit slower / Passthrough charging: Yes / Ports: One USB-C port / Built-in cable: Yes, non-removable / Advertised battery capacity: 10,000mAh, 36Wh

The Baseus PicoGo AM52 is about as no-frills as power banks come, both in design and features. The all-black battery pack has a sleek aluminum case, with soft-touch silicone on the magnetic side to prevent it from scratching your phone while charging. It can charge devices via Qi2.2 and USB-C simultaneously, but using both requires you to press the power button (and there’s a steep speed penalty as it splits the power).

The AM52 consistently offered the fastest wireless charging speeds of any power bank I tested, and it’s often the most affordable of the bunch. It wirelessly charged an iPhone 17 Pro Max to 65 percent in one hour and the Pixel 10 Pro XL to 50 percent, which is on par with the slightly pricier Sharge Icemag 3. The Iniu SnapGo Air slightly outperformed the AM52 in some wireless tests, but lagged behind in others. Baseus’s model lacks a built-in display — meaning you can’t see the remaining charge — but two of the four LED indicators were still full after an hour of wireless charging, indicating it still had some juice left.

I tested the version with a built-in USB-C cable, which usually retails for $64 at Amazon if you’re a Prime member ($4 more than the cordless version). Sometimes, it drops to $40 or so with a coupon, and in terms of wired charging speeds, it was also among the fastest of the seven batteries I tested. It charged both the iPhone and Pixel to about 90 percent capacity within an hour, though it’s not necessarily hard to find a battery that supports fast wired charging.

The Baseus AM52 advertises a top speed of 45W via USB-C, though it didn’t reach those speeds with any of the devices I tested. It topped out at about 38W while connected to the iPhone 17 Pro Max and 33W while attached to the Pixel 10 Pro XL, both of which advertise higher wired speeds (the Iniu SnapGo Air topped out at 39W). The Baseus also topped out at 39.1W while plugged into my M2 MacBook Air, which isn’t far from its advertised rating, while the Iniu reached 43W. In other words, get the Iniu if you value fast wired speeds and the Baseus if you want fast wireless charging.

The other Qi2.2 batteries I tested

Sharge’s Icemag 3 (39.1Wh) is the coolest battery of the seven that I tested, and it delivers great wireless and wired charging speeds (25W and 30W, respectively). No issues here, but it usually costs a fair amount more than the Baseus or Iniu model.

Iniu’s SnapGo Air (39.2Wh) came close to being our top pick thanks to its fast wired charging, relatively low price, and LED display that
