    Premium power bank for a premium price

    I have been a long term user of Ridge’s metal wallets and always appreciated the premium quality and the design. So when I got my hands on the Ridge Magsafe power bank, I was very curious how Ridge takes aim at a highly saturated market. After using it extensively for almost a month of using it during both domestic and international travel, I believe I’ve found a great travel accessory. The major feature of the Ridge powerbank is the versatility. It features both wired and wireless charging. As for wired - it has a USB-C port that acts both as the charger input and output, so messing around to figure out which port does what. However, there are additional USB-C and Lightning cables that are built-in to charge stuff when a handy cable is not available. Furthermore, the USB-C tethered cable can also be used to charge the power bank in a pinch. These cables are not very long, but they nicely tuck away in the body which makes it super convenient. For wired charging, the maximum power is 20 W which I feel is adequate for a quick top up. As for wireless, it is Magsafe compatible, and thus supports all sorts of Apple devices: phones, Earpods, Watch. While the power is capped at 15W max, again it’s not the slowest out there. I found the magnets for the Magsafe really strong, and could keep my phone charging while I was in a call, or just using normally, with no fear of the power bank falling off. On top of all this, I was able to charge my Android smartphones without any issue as well, and it worked super nicely with my new Pixel 10 Pro which uses the PixelSnap akin to Magsafe. From build quality and design, the Ridge gets an A+ from me. It’s well proportioned and balanced, and the overall design is quite appealing, especially with the Basecamp Orange I have. It feels well built, and while it took a few scuff when dropped at an airport a couple of days ago, it has held up well. As a plus, it has a builtin kickstand that is again very helpful in a pinch. As for interface, the Ridge has a single button, paired to a monochrome display which can show the charging status and battery level. I like the idea that charging devices only start when the button has been pressed, so I can keep it attached to my phone, use it for the kickstand, and not constantly charge my phone. Overall, the Ridge is a well thought out product. It’s a good package to replace a lot of travel chargers - the only thing I needed was a USB-C wall charger with it and I’m set for most travel. The only gripe I may have is whether the wired charging speed could have been faster. That would have made it perfect.

    Ill start with the pros: the design is cool and the Apple Watch charger in the middle is also a neat addition. Now for the cons: the battery life felt sub par on it, even for 10k milleamp hours. The quality and material of the product feels cheap and not the quality you would expect from a company like Ridge. The kickstand is extremely hard to get out if you have shorter nails, same with the 2 cords on the side. Also, the kickstand part of the design should have been better thought out. Just go with the Anker MagGo if you want a great all arounder portable battery.

    While the build quality is great, solid and looks really nice, overall performance was not worth the price. It only charges 1 to 1.5 times from near empty for my Iphone 16 Pro Max, and the charge for apple watch was so slow it made it useless. I really wanted to like this, but would look at other options if I were you.

    This thing kind of sucks. The corded options work okay, the wireless charging does not charge an Apple Watch or iPhone for more than a few minutes then it turns off. I reached out to ridge support, it have been 3 weeks and they have not responded. I’d look elsewhere for charging options.

    The display showing the % charge remaining went bad after a week of normal use. I bought three units, all bad displays! Hard to tell if it’s full charge or empty. So slow to charge my iPhone, and it takes a while to recharge the battery pack.

    The Ridge Magnetic Power Bank is a solid Power Bank, with basecamp orange being a vibrant and bold choice. The Power Bank arrived at 87%, which pending whenever this was manufactured, appears to hold a charge for a decent period of time - with that, it took less than 30-minutes or so to have reached back to 100% when rechecked via USB-C charging. This goes into a discussion about design. There is a build in (yet short) USB-C and lightning cable - which is a great feature. This allows for not needing extra cords while on the go to charge - a game changer to grab quickly, fit in small compartments or a pocket. There is also a USB-C plug in spot to allow for longer cords as well - and charging. The Power Bank also had a slightly raised MagSafe connection point that easily hooked onto my phone through the case and provides solid charging capabilities. The wired option is faster however. There is also the ability to charge apple watch, which makes this a great on the go option if outdoors hiking or at an event. There is a clear display with battery percent, which is nicer than previous Banks I have had that only have 4 dots to show 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%. Having the displayed percentage of charge is just a nice feature. There is also a kickstand, which seems sturdy enough and allows for keeping phone/charger upright during charging. Speed of charging with the MagSafe is decent at on average 5% per 10 minutes with an iPhone 15. There is a 10,000mAh capacity - with Ridge claiming up to 3 smartphone recharges. I found that on average the Power Brick went down about 5-6% for every 10% of my phone charged. So I would estimate about 2 full charges? Maybe it does not scale perfectly, but I'd confidently say 2 based off of current use. The biggest aspects of this Power Bank are the perceived durability (feeling have been built strong), the ability to have magnetic attachment, integrated cables within the Power Bank itself - improving ease, an LED display for charge and the ability to recharge at least twice. Overall, satisfied and hope it lasts - most Power Banks seem to die after a while - there is a lifetime warranty, which supposedly seems to cover if not functioning properly. I hope to never have to pursue this.

    Slow charger

    I don’t usually leave a review but this charger is terrible. It took me 3 1/2hr to charge from 20% to 98% without using the phone. It used up 80% of the battery life. Imagine having a phone and a watch. I don’t think both will get full charge. Since it was from a well known company that make those great wallet. I had to give it a try and because of the functionality on it. I’m so disappointed. Wish I can return it.

    My new favorite charger

    I have a number of small portable phone chargers. This has quickly become my new favorite. There are others with higher capacity, but the flexibility of this charger makes this a must have. The charger is relatively small and feels well built. I do wish it maybe had a rubber coating or something similar to help protect it, but it still feels solid. The magnetic pad is very strong. Stronger than any similar chargers I’ve used. I love that not only can I charge my phone with the magnetic pad, but it works great for my watch as well. The built in charging cords are a great option as well. You can charge multiple devices at once, but it will slow the charging time. Overall charging time for just my phone is pretty good. The battery capacity is good enough for me to fully charge my phone about one and a half times. Or, my phone once and my watch once. Perfect for an overnight stay or to top off on a heavy usage kind of day. The digital display is easy to read and seems accurate. I can highly recommend this charger for anyone who needs a small charger that packs a good amount of battery life in an easy to carry with you package.

    A durable do-it-all solution

    The more devices you have, the more you need to charge -- not always the easiest prospect when you're on the go. And throw some proprietary chargers in the mix, like the Apple Watch, and suddenly traveling with an army of charging adapters and dongles seems inevitable. As I've started traveling more I've found myself either forgetting to charge or not having enough time to juice up to 100% in between outlet access. As my Apple Watch has aged the battery life has declined, leaving me stranded partway through the day if I don't make a point to fully charge before I start my day. Heavy phone use during a conference takes its toll, too, and (fully-functioning) outlets aren't the easiest to come by at many hotels. The Ridge Wallet MagSafe Power Bank caught my eye for two reasons: one, the great colors, and two, the plethora of charging options built right into the device. I was especially intrigued by the wireless pad's ability to magnetically attach both an iPhone and an Apple Watch, allowing me to juice up on the go without having to remember to bring the Watch charger with me. What's more, Ridge included two built-in charging cables and a USB-C port, along with a convenient status screen and simple one-button interface. The Ridge Wallet MagSafe Power Bank arrived cleanly and efficiently packed in an easily-recyclable box. There's next to no setup other than making sure the bank is charged, which you can easily do by plugging it into any standard USB-C cord, or making use of the built-in USB-C cable. The small, bright LCD screen displays the current charge during both charging and discharging, a nice touch to help you keep an eye on your progress. I love the Matte Olive color with the black accents and pop of orange in the USB-C port. The power bank is smooth and solid, with the built-in charging cables running up the sides providing a nice fabric with a bit of texture for your grip. The kickstand takes a bit of force to pull out and it's not adjustable, but it's very sturdy and can support your device in portrait or landscape on a flat surface. MagSafe is definitely one of my favorite Apple innovations of the past few years, and Ridge has done a nice job with their implementation. The soft-touch, grippy charging surface is slightly elevated above the power bank's surface, adding to the rugged look while offering a genuinely useful amount of grip to keep your devices from sliding around. The magnets are plenty strong to hold the power bank steady on the back of my iPhone Air, although it looks pretty comical attached to such a svelte phone. But hey, 10,000 mAh is quite a lot of power! The built-in charging cables are really sleekly integrated, so much so that it took me a few seconds of turning the bank over in my hands to realize what they were. Again, the cables take a bit of force to remove and put back, but for me this just adds to the overall quality feeling of Ridge's product. The cables are only a few inches long, which can make using a device while it's plugged in a bit awkward, but there's always the option of using a longer USB-C cable and the port on the bottom of the power bank. Truthfully, I'm torn about Ridge's decision to make one of the built-in cables a Lightning cable. Now that Apple has transitioned all their devices to USB-C it feels a little wasted to me, as I haven't had a Lightning-compatible device in more than a few years. That said, plenty of people still use Lightning every day, and if you're reading this review chances are you might be one of them. Personally I'd really have preferred two USB-C cables or perhaps one longer USB-C cable wrapping around three sides of the device, but again, YMMV based on the devices you own. Including Lightning does have the added benefit of making it easier to share the power bank with friends and colleagues though. As I write this review my Apple Watch is charging on the Ridge MagSafe Power Bank next to me. I exercised this morning and didn't have more than a few minutes to charge my watch after, leaving me perilously close to out of juice by early evening. It's pretty neat that Ridge managed to integrate an Apple Watch charging pad smack-dab in the middle of a MagSafe charger, but this design isn't without compromise. The Watch-attaching magnets are fairly weak; it's much easier to dislodge the watch than I expected. I've also found myself having to remove one side of a few of my watch bands in order for the watch to lie flat enough to charge. I've also noticed watch charging is pretty slow at only 2.5 W, which is pretty slow, especially compared to the latest Apple-official charging pucks. All that being said, it charges, and is great for a top-off when on the go. Overall I'm pleased with the Ridge Wallet MagSafe Power Bank. It's ruggedly attractive, comes in great colors, feels near-indestructible and offers the ability to charge new and old devices wired or wirelessly. It has enough power to juice up phones and watches a few times over, and the pass-through charging function means you can turn this power bank into a charging station while on the go. That's one less thing to pack! As someone with no Lightning devices I really do wish both built-in cables were USB-C, but there are still many, many Lightning users out there, and I'm happy I can share the power bank with them if needed. Overall, this is a great do-it-all sort of device, and well worth including on your next trip.
