Apple’s MagSafe Battery Pack is down to its lowest price yet

December 3, 2021

Today marks one week since Black Friday (good riddance). The shopping weekend and Thanksgiving holiday may already feel as though they happened ages ago, but some deals have stuck around while new ones continue to crop up. We can’t stop time from flying by, but we can keep serving you the best tech deals possible.

Kicking things off, the Apple MagSafe Battery Pack has reached a new all-time low price. The portable battery was released in the summer, and it didn’t take long to see some decent discounts. Now, just in time for holiday gifting, you can pick up the MagSafe Battery Pack for $75 at Amazon or Best Buy — a whole $25 off. This battery pack may not be able to fill an iPhone 12 or 13 from empty, but it’s one of the handiest ways to keep them topped off. Also, it can play the role of a MagSafe wireless charging puck for your AirPods. Read our review.

Apple’s MagSafe Battery Pack is the only option for magnetic wireless charging on the go that is integrated with iOS for visible charge levels. It does not pack enough juice to fully charge an iPhone 12 or 13, but it’s convenient for top-ups in a compact package.

You can score a great deal on one of the best all-in-one VR headsets, the Oculus Quest 2 (soon to be known as the Meta Quest 2). Walmart is currently offering a refurbished Oculus Quest 2 with 64GB of storage for just $199. That is $100 less than you can currently get the 128GB model. While it’s a little more slim on storage, that crisp Benjamin you’ll save can go toward a whol e bunch of games or a Supernatural subscription. We wouldn’t normally recommend this deal, but it puts us at ease knowing that this refurbished model carries a full one-year warranty through Oculus and a 30-day return policy. Read our review.

Best Buy has the larger, 14-ounce version in blue for $100 — a discount of $30. This brings it down to the same price as the smaller, 10-ounce Mug 2.
