Power Up Your Life: The Ultimate Guide to the Charmast Slim Portable Charger

Maximize Your Device Battery Life with This Compact Charging Solution

Charmast Charger

In today's fast-paced world, running out of battery life can be a major inconvenience. That's where the Charmast Slim Portable Charger comes in. This sleek and compact power bank is designed to keep your iPhone 14 Pro Max charged on the go.

How Effective is a 5000mAh Battery for an iPhone 14 Pro Max?

A 5000mAh battery is a solid choice for charging an iPhone 14 Pro Max. While the exact charging time depends on factors like battery health and usage patterns, it can typically provide multiple full charges or several hours of additional usage.

I estimate this charger would provide about one full recharge for the iPhone 14 Pro Max, essentially doubling the battery life. This is particularly useful when you're taking lots of photos or videos. Additionally, if you're far from any cellular towers, which can strain the iPhone 14 Pro Max's battery, this charger becomes even more valuable.

Six Things I Learned:

  • Magsafe Mounting: This charger mounts to your iPhone, making it easy to charge and store simultaneously. However, you still need to connect the cable from the charger to the phone; it doesn't charge wirelessly when mounted. This was a bit disappointing, but it explains the lower price compared to other MagSafe chargers.

  • Pricing: In August, I paid $9.99 for this charger, which is a fair price for a 5000mAh charger. While I have several 10,000mAh chargers, they are bulky - nearly like carrying two phones. This charger is nicely compact.

  • Digital Readout: There's a digital readout showing how charged the charger is, which is handy for knowing when to recharge, especially if not used frequently.

  • Versatility: You can also charge other devices with the Charmast Slim Portable Charger, like a GoPro, providing an additional 3 hours of charge time when used as an external power source.

  • Built-in Strap: The built-in cable acts as a strap, which is strong and gives you a way to carry the charger when mounted to the iPhone 14 Pro Max. However, I wouldn't trust the magnet alone to hold the devices together securely.

  • Included Cables: The charger comes with a USB-C to USB-C cable. You can charge the Charmast Slim Portable Charger using either a Lightning cable or a USB-C cable.

Final Thoughts

I'll likely take this on our Disney trip next year. It could be handy for occasionally charging my phone in my pocket. However, for days when I plan to capture many photos or shoot 4K videos, I would prefer the larger 10,000mAh charger for its capacity to power both my iPhone and GoPro.

At $9.99, I believe it's worth having as a backup power charger.
