Essential items aided me in navigating my journey to IFA 2025 abroad
In the modern world, keeping our devices charged is as important as having them with us. Here's a look at two portable power solutions that have proven their worth during a recent trip to Berlin: the Anker 737 power bank and the Baseus MagSafe Portable Charger.
The Anker 737, with its 24,000 mAh internal battery, is a powerhouse capable of charging an iPhone 16 Pro from empty to full four times. It features a built-in OLED display providing information on charge capacity, estimated depletion time, and wattage delivered to each port. The power bank also boasts two USB-C ports, each capable of delivering up to 140 watts if only one device is attached, and a USB-A port with a 18-watt output.
During the trip, the Anker 737 was used to charge a MacBook Air, iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods Pro simultaneously, thanks to the Ugreen 65-watt USB-C power block. This retractable power block, with its 60-watt USB-C port, ensured efficient charging for all devices. When charging two devices at once, the Ugreen power block can deliver a maximum of 45 watts.
For iPhone users, the Baseus MagSafe Portable Charger was another reliable option. With a capacity of 10,000mAh and a 20W output, it provided a full charge to an iPhone 16 Pro and had a USB-C port for recharging. Although it doubles the thickness of the iPhone when attached, this MagSafe battery pack can also be used to charge devices via its USB-C port without the MagSafe function.
The Baseus MagSafe Portable Charger was purchased on clearance from Woot.com for $18.99, while the Anker 737 is currently priced at $87.99, a 20% discount from its MSRP of $109.99. For travellers, a Euro plug adapter like the VINTAR International Power Plug Adapter was essential. This adapter, available in a two-pack for $19.99 on Amazon, allows the use of U.S. plugs in Europe.
A newer, 22.5-watt version of the Baseus MagSafe battery pack is currently available on Amazon for $26.99, offering a more compact option for those seeking a MagSafe charger. Whether you're a frequent traveller or a tech enthusiast, these power solutions are worth considering for keeping your devices charged on the go.
