Traveling with your Apple devices can quickly become a juggling act of chargers, cables, and adapters. That’s where MagSafe hits home for me—simplifying charging without needing a bunch of cables in my travel bag. Since its release with the iPhone 12, it’s been my go-to way to charge everything. Whether heading out for a weekend getaway or a quick work trip, building a MagSafe “go-bag” travel kit guarantees your iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods are charged up and ready to go. Let’s look at what you need in your travel bag for MagSafe.

Mobile MagSafe battery packs
When you’re on the go, a great MagSafe battery pack is table-stakes for your travel kit. These snap-on chargers keep your iPhone powered up without the hassle of extra cables. The best ones have a slim profile (depending on how big you want it to be), fast charging, and bonus features like Qi2 support, LED displays, or kickstands. MagSafe battery pack ensures you’re always ready to snap photos, navigate, or stay connected. Here are some of my favorite MagSafe battery packs:
UGREEN Magnetic Power Bank with Qi2
ESR for MagSafe Power Bank, Kickstand 10,000mAh MagSafe Portable Charge with Qi2
Anker 321 MagGo Battery
Anker 622 Magnetic Battery (MagGo), 5,000mAh Foldable Magnetic Wireless Portable Charger with Stand and USB-C Port
Travel MagSafe nightstand chargers
A good night’s sleep in a hotel should also result in a charged iPhone, AirPods, and Apple Watch, and a travel-friendly MagSafe nightstand charger makes it easy. Compact, foldable designs are awesome for traveling, and MagSafe compatibility eliminates the need for a bunch of different cables and chargers. Here are some good options:
Belkin MagSafe-Compatible iPhone Charger, 2-in-1 Magnetic Foldable Charger 15W – Qi2-Certified
Foldable 3 in 1 Wireless Charging Station for Apple Compatible with Magsafe Charger Stand
Fast Wireless Charger, Magnetic Foldable 3 in 1 Charging Station
Twelve South Butterfly 2-in-1 Compact Foldable Wireless Charger with Travel Adapter
MagSafe charging cables
Sometimes, simple is what you need. A reliable MagSafe charging cable is the perfect solution when you all need a straightforward way to charge your iPhone and AirPods without any extra charge. They’re great when you want to keep your setup light and uncomplicated. Don’t forget the USB-C wall adapter! Of course, this won’t charge the Apple Watch, though.

Wrap up
Traveling shouldn’t bring the hassle of dead Apple devices. The Delta app and Uber app are pretty useless if your iPhone is dead. MagSafe is the perfect technology to keep it simple (not needing to carry around chargers for all of your devices) while making it easy to grab a quick charge in the car, at the airport, etc).
