If you have an iPhone, you probably shouldn't skip this Amazon Prime Day deal that's still live

Amazon’s October Prime Day, aka Prime Big Deal Days, might be over, but if you didn't shop the 48-hour sale or still want to find an epic deal, I have one for you. Specifically, if you have an iPhone—any model—I have a recommendation that shouldn’t be skipped.

No matter if you have the latest iPhone 15 Plus, a 12 Mini, or an iPhone 14, there comes a time when your iPhone will eventually deliver a low power warning, or worse, strike 0 when you need it most. The solution? Well, it could be to remember to charge your phone, but having a battery pack is a good fail-safe.

One of my favorites, Anker’s 622 Magnetic Battery, is still 29% off in five colors thanks to a post-Amazon's October Prime Day sale. It's not quite as good as the 43% discount, but it is still $20 off the regular price.

And the Anker battery is unlike other portable chargers you're probably familiar with because it does a little bit extra. It snaps to the back of any MagSafe capable iPhone (an iPhone 12 or newer) to wirelessly charge, but you can also hardwire in via a USB-C port on the side. It even has a built-in kickstand, which equals a ton of value.

It’s been my personal carry for day trips and week-long ones, a device that I ensure is fully charged before leaving the house as it can help refuel my iPhone mid-day or when it is super low.

Inside the solid build is a 5,000mAh lithium-ion battery, enough to keep your iPhone going. For an iPhone 15 Pro Max, I’ve found that it can provide a bit over 50% battery life. However, speeds do vary from wireless charging to wired.

When it’s snapped onto the back of your MagSafe iPhone, it will charge at up to 7.5 watts, but it will go a bit faster when you charge via a cable. For an iPhone, that’s USB-C to USB-C, which comes included in the box of the 622 battery. For older iPhones, you’ll need to USB-C to Lightning—either way, it’s a simple plug-and-play solution.

Another key benefit is that this battery pack is compact and can easily be tossed in a pant pocket, bag, or backpack. Heck, it even fits in the pocket of a button-down shirt. It’s just half an inch thick, so it doesn’t add crazy bulk to the back of your iPhone, either.

You can also attach it to your Magsafe phone and flip out the kickstand to give your hand a rest. Maybe the best part, though (aside from the actual charging it does) is that a 24-month warranty from Anker backs it—so if something goes wrong, they’ll swap it out.

So, yes, if you have an iPhone, there’s much to say about Anker’s 622 Magnetic Battery. But the most important thing is that it’s the best time to get one as it’s down to just $50 on Amazon, and Prime members get free, fast shipping.

If you aren’t sold on this one, I’m also sharing a few of my other favorite iPhone accessories.
