This compact power bank snaps onto the back of Galaxy S26 devices using magnets for easy alignment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/andauth.co\/AAGooglePreferredSource\" class=\"e_nm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\"><img class=\"e_lg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/><img class=\"e_lg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The accessory packs a 5,000mAh battery, which is enough to provide a meaningful top-up during a long day out. Wireless charging reaches up to 15W when attached magnetically, while the USB-C port pushes up to 25W wired charging for faster refills.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, Samsung didn\u2019t just slap magnets into a generic power bank. The design was adjusted specifically for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/samsung-galaxy-s26-open-sale-pre-order-numbers-3648240\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Galaxy S26<\/a>\u2019s hardware layout.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"e_lg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"Magnet Wireless Battery Pack 2\"  alt=\"Samsung Magnet Wireless Battery Pack front\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Magnet-Wireless-Battery-Pack-2.jpg\"\/><img class=\"e_lg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"Magnet Wireless Battery Pack 1\"  alt=\"Magnet Wireless Battery Pack 1\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Magnet-Wireless-Battery-Pack-1.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The battery pack has a cutout around the magnetic ring, allowing it to fit neatly around the Galaxy S26 camera module. This is important because the S26 series has a large vertical camera bump, which can make some third-party magnetic accessories incompatible.<\/p>\n<p>The accessory also features a built-in foldable kickstand, so you can prop up your phone while it charges. This is handy for video calls, streaming, or watching YouTube. The stand works in both vertical and horizontal positions.<\/p>\n<p>Samsung has listed the accessory on its <a href=\"https:\/\/go.skimresources.com\/?id=74660X1524607&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.samsung.com%2Fus%2Fmobile-accessories%2Fmagnet-wireless-battery-pack-gray-sku-eb-u2500xjegus%2F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">online store<\/a> for about $65.
