Apple Reintroduces MagSafe Battery, for iPhone Air Only
Apple today reintroduced the MagSafe battery specifically for the iPhone Air, featuring an all-new, low-profile design.
The new battery provides the iPhone Air with up to 40 hours of video playback with the pack attached, adding up to 65% additional charge. With the battery attached, the iPhone Air apparently has better battery life than any other iPhone.
Apple says that to maximize battery life, the combined system will choose the best times to recharge the iPhone, or if you need a quick boost, just snap it on for up to 12W of fast wireless charging on the go.
For even faster charging of the iPhone Air, Apple says you can attach the MagSafe Battery and connect it to a 20W or higher power adapter at the same time.
The new MagSafe Battery is priced at $99. It is only compatible with the iPhone Air.
