Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.The iPhone has been with us for 15 years now, and while its features and performance have improved massively in that time, one aspect has barely changed – battery life.
It’s the same across the board, with manufacturers never quite brave enough to claim their phone lasts more than a full day. We all know the score: charge overnight, then carefully manage what’s left of your battery by the evening. Unless you snap on a magnetic battery, of course.
Which is where Apple’s MagSafe battery pack comes in, and we’ve just spotted a 20 per cent discount at Amazon.
This deal takes the price down from £99 to £79, and gives you a super convenient way to top up your iPhone’s battery while out and about – and because it charges wirelessly, there’s no need to carry a cable.
Here’s everything you need to know about this offer.

Apple MagSafe battery pack (iPhone 12 to 14): Was £99, now £79, Amazon.co.uk
Introduced with the iPhone 12 in 2020, MagSafe is Apple’s magnetic, wireless battery-charging technology. It helps all models of iPhone 12, iPhone 13 and iPhone 14 (from £849, Apple.com) connect to chargers, cases and other accessories, thanks to magnets fitted on the rear of the handset.
Each accessory simply snaps into place, and because these models of iPhone also have wireless charging, their batteries are topped up as soon as the magnets are aligned.
Because MagSafe is an ecosystem of products, they all work with each other. This means, if you already have a MagSafe case attached to your iPhone, this wireless battery will attach magnetically onto the rear of the case, then send power through that and into your phone.
This battery is sold on its own without cables, but can connect to any USB charger via its lightning port. Hook up a powerful USB-C charger with a 27W output or higher, and its battery will fill up quicker. It also works with the chargers supplied with Apple’s iPad or MacBook range.
