Verbatim isn’t a brand you hear a lot about these days, but it used to be one of the top players in the world of visual media. They changed hands several times, with Mitsubishi taking ownership in 1990, before being sold to CMC Magnetics, another communications media specialist.
With the decline of optical media, the company has included more storage formats, peripherals, power and charging products, and gaming subdivisions.
The range of power banks is limited to only 9 models, the largest being the 27000mAh Charge ‘n’ Go Power Bank.
The Charge ‘n’ Go model I’ve been reviewing is a very attractive little charger. It features QI magnetic charging capable of 15W, a USB-C port capable of 12W, and two built-in USB-C cables capable of 22.5W. Total output is limited to 22.5W.

Design
Power banks are usually unremarkable in their design, but this one is a little different.
It has several notable features, including:
- QI magnetic charging pad, now common
- Two USB-C cables – Many brands have started to bundle one cable, but this is the first time I’ve seen two. The built-in cable in these small chargers is really useful as it allows you to carry the charger in your pocket without carrying a separate cable (and most USB cables are longer than necessary in this case).
- A display that shows the input and output voltage, which is also a common feature.
- You’ll have a built-in kickstand, so you can charge your phone wirelessly while watching media or wirelessly charge while using a cable and everything in one go.
The perfect design and features make this an ideal solution for days out and personal use.
Magnetic wireless charging
Although this is advertised as a QI magnetic wireless charger, according to the specifications, it is technically Qi2 as it includes MagSafe and offers 15W wireless charging.
Some products, like Ugreen, offer up to 25W charging, which is technically Qi2.2.
Apple pioneered wireless magnetic charging, and so far, the only Android phone that fully supports Qi 2.2 is the Google Pixel 10 Pro XL. The Samsung S26+/S26U supports it, but only with a magnetic case.
So, while QI2.2 would be great, I don’t think it’s a deal breaker.
As in practice, I’ve been using it with my Honor Magic8 Pro and my Pixel 9 Pro XL (both with magnetic cases), and it’s worked great, keeping my phones high when I’m carrying them. in my pocket. The LED display actually reported a higher output than the power bank should be capable of.
Wired Charging
Wired charging is limited to 22.5W for any of the built-in cables, and the total amount is limited to 22.5W as well. This is a touch lower than usual; both Anker and Ugreen typically offer 27W to 30W output, and Anker has a smaller 12,000mAh power bank capable of 130W output.
In fact, I’m unlikely to notice a difference in charging speed between 22.5W and 30W, and I think these little 10K power banks are more suitable for keeping your phone charged on days out, than the full charges you might want from bigger and more powerful banks.
All the phones I tried this with were able to get a full 22.5W charge.

The Verbatim Charge ‘n’ Go MagSafe Power Bank appears to have an RRP of £41.99 and is available on Amazon for £38.47.
The Ugreen MagFlow 2-in-1 Magnetic QI2 Wireless Charger only has one built-in USB cable, but offers 25W QI2 wireless charging and has an RRP of £80, available on Amazon for £54.99.
The Ugreen Nexode Ultra-Slim is QI2 but 15W, has one built-in cable and no display. This is available for £64.99 RRP and on Amazon for £46.99.
Anker MagGo Power Bank (10,000mAh), Qi2 15W wireless charging, is £89.99 RRP and reduced to £55.99.
There are many non-name brands that offer wireless chargers at a lower price, but I don’t have any experience with them, so I wouldn’t recommend them over brands like Ugreen or Anker.
Additionally, if you don’t need wireless charging, there are many affordable options.
All in all
The Verbatim Charge ‘n’ Go MagSafe Power Bank is a great, compact charger that’s perfect for a day out.
Price is important here, and I think Verbatim has its price about right. The Ugreen MagFlow 2-in-1 power bank is a supercharger thanks to QI2 fast charging and slightly better wired input/output at 30W, but it doesn’t have a second cable. However, since it costs £17 more, I will buy the Verbatim myself.
Overall, while this isn’t the highest rated 10K magnetic charger, I think it’s one of the best options I’ve used, due to the versatility of charging options and value for money.
