Best iPhone 18 Pro accessories: Solid-state power banks, MagSafe, chargers, more

The iPhone 18 Pro has arrived and the Duo will very soon as well, so let’s scope out some notable accessory pickups to elevate the experience. From safety and reliability-focused Qi2 Solid-State Power Banks and our favorite Find My add-ons, to the best 3-in-1 MagSafe charging stations, CarPlay accessories, and wall adapters to max your charging speeds, all of that and more awaits below with more on the way soon, as well as our top picks for the new foldable.

Not all power banks are made equal and the latest from Hyper is the perfect example – a true Qi2 semi-solid-state solution specifically designed for everyday portable charging with enhanced safety features and thermal stability made possible by the next-generation battery tech. The 5,000mAh capacity is not only airline carry-on compliant, but is complimented by a bonus USB-C port so you can juice two devices at once – one via the main MagSafe pad and one wired over USB-C.  

The HyperJuice Next 5K Qi2 Solid-State Power Bank has undergone 115+ independent safety tests to ensure “consistent, safe operation” with a build designed to withstand everyday drops, bumps and exposure to “extreme temperatures without swelling.” I for one am sick of these things overheating and then having to worry about it – I’ll be going with semi-solid-state models from now on.

Nomad Tracking Card

If you ask me, Nomad makes the best Find My wallet tracker cards win the game, whether it’s the ultra-thin Air or the higher-end metal bezel Pro model. I also happen to think these Find MY cards are a must-have and easily one of the best iPhone 18 Pro accessories you can buy. 

MagSafe Charging Stations – Satechi, Nomad, and Anker

I have tested out a near-countless number of 3-in-1 MagSafe charging stations and, while I do like the Belkin models, my absolute three favorite options come from Satechi, Nomad, and Anker – sleekSpace Black metal, a high-end statement piece unlike any other on the market, and a high-tech, conversations tarting display-equipped model:

Twelve South AirFly Drive

Getting a new iPhone is a great excuse to also upgrade your CarPlay setup. The new AirFly Drive accessory coverts wired CarPlay to wireless in thousands of cars. Plus, it comes from Twelve South, which makes some of the most reliable accessories on the market.

AirTag 2

While not only an iPhone 18 Pro accessory by any means, I still think the latest AirTag 2 has to be on this list, much like AirPods Pro 3. It effectively expands your iPhone 18 Pro’s capabilities by way of adding remote tracking action to just about you can affix an AirTag 2. 

Apple 40W Dynamic Power Adapter with 60W Max

If you want to charge your iPhone 18 Pro as fast as possible, you need a specific type of charging block. This option straight from Apple features a compact foldable design and can boost your iPhone to 50% in just 15 minutes.

Beats Woven USB-C Cables

Apple’s Beats brand makes my favorite USB-C cables on the market. They come in a number of different sizes and colors, and are ultra durable and tangle-free thanks to their woven design. You can’t go wrong picking up a few of these to place around your house and in your car.

Anker Universal Nano 100W Smart Display Travel Charger

This is probably our favorite travel chargers to pair with the iPhone 18 Pro right now, thanks to its built-in international plugs that cut down on the number of adapters I need to carry while traveling. It also has a smart display for checking live charging stats and can deliver up to 100W over USB-C, giving you enough power for an iPhone, iPad, MacBook, and other gear from one compact unit.

Anker Nano 45W Smart Display Charger

Anker’s latest 45W Nano is easily one of the best compact chargers you can pair with the iPhone 18 Pro right now. It has a built-in smart display, updated device recognition, AVS support, and even OTA updates for future compatibility, all packed into a tiny body that still has enough power for an iPhone, iPad, or even a MacBook Air.

Baseus PicoGo Air 5K Power Bank

The PicoGo Air 5K is the one to pick if you want a genuinely slim MagSafe battery for the iPhone 18 without adding too much bulk. It’s impressively thin for a 5,000mAh pack and works well for quick top-ups on the go. Baseus also offers a slightly thicker Qi2.2 version if you’d rather have faster 25W wireless charging.
