Is it better to get Apple or third party MagSafe accessories? (alien.top)

Hello everyone,

I recently decided it would be worthwhile to invest in some MagSafe stuff. I specifically want to get a power bank, wallet, and charger. I was curious if you guys think it’s best to get these directly from Apple, or if third party options are better. I’m specifically looking at Spigen because they seem to be the most reliable.

Thank you

Powerbank? Never bought one before

Wallet? I got this one off Amazonand really like it. Apple ones are kinda trash IMO

Charger? Anker is always a good bet. I have several of their chargers and never had an issue with them.

Anker seems really great. It’s back by tech YouTuber JerryRigEverything too so that adds to the credibility

Apple made theirs the ONLY 15W output device, all third parties are at 10W. At home, I still use cable and wouldn’t care if it was 10 or 15. However, for the car, it’s definitely the 15W Apple version.

Really? Alright, I’ll be sure to stick with the apple charger then

Look for a third party Apple Certified Accessory logo.
