These Baseus Picogo MagSafe power banks are up to 55% off
Summer is for traveling the world, hiking the trails, laying out at the beach, and enjoying concerts out in the open. The only thing that can ruin the day when the sun is shining is your phone’s low battery warning. Thankfully, the Baseus Picogo power bank is an easy fix for this problem, no matter where you are going. The Baseus Picogo MagSafe power banks are not only going to save you in a pinch, but they’re also going to serve as gorgeous accessories. With a slim build and a beautiful design, these power banks have an aluminum alloy cover. That not only makes them sturdy enough to survive life in your bag, but it also makes it easy to avoid overheating during charges because heat dissipates more easily. Meanwhile, the soft-touch silicone cover is scratch- and wear-resistant, and reveals no unsightly fingerprints. Plus, the smooth casing has rounded edges, which will make holding it and your phone while you’re actively using the device that much nicer, since it won’t be digging into your palm and fingers. There are two versions of the Baseus Picogo MagSafe power bank you can pick from, depending on your needs. One has a 5,000mAh capacity, while the other tops out at 10,000mAh. Naturally, it’s not just the capacity that varies, but also the size of the power bank. Both measure the same 3.93 inches in height and 2.62 inches in length, but the thickness and weight vary–a necessary trade-off with the additional capacity and faster charging technology in the larger model. The 5,000mAh Picogo is only 0.3 inches thick and weighs 4.6oz, while the 10,000mAh version is 0.5 inches thick and weighs 7.8oz. Neither is heavy enough to be of concern. These versatile power banks are extremely useful when on the go as they provide wireless charging as well as wired charging via a USB-C port. They even come with a short braided type-C cable in the package so you don’t need to buy an extra one. The 5,000mAh Picogo delivers a maximum of 7.5W wireless charging and 20W wired charging via the type-C port. The 10,000mAh Picogo is an upgraded model with faster charging speeds, reaching up to 15W wireless charging and 27W wired charging. While it does depend on the battery capacity of the device you wish to charge, the 5,000mAh Picogo should offer a full charge of your phone, while the 10,000mAh version should support about two full recharges. Whichever model you want, you should know the Baseus Picogo power banks are on sale right now over at Amazon. The 5,000mAh Baseus Picogo power bank is now available with a 55% discount, which means you can get one of these tiny and gorgeous devices for $26.99. The 10,000mAh Baseus Picogo is also on sale at $39.99, a great value considering how useful these power banks can be.
