Hey all, I currently use a LG Stylo 6 that is starting to give me problems (Random freezes and just a pain to use compared to the Samsung J2 I used before). I'm thinking of buying an Iphone 12 (Regular size with 64gb). Would this be a good buy for aomeone who has never owned an Iphone? Thanks.

Edit: I plan on keeping/using my next phone for the next decade or at tge very least more than 5-7 years.

According to my quick web search the TSA asks for spare batteries to be carry on (not checked bag) and under 100 watt hours (exceptions on request for 101-160Wh).

The largest MagSafe battery bank I’ve seen so far is 10,000mAh which at the typical 5V only comes to 50Wh so it should be a non-issue so long as you keep it in your carry on.

Let me know if I misunderstood what that’s saying

You’re correct, although you can get 15W when connected to a power adapter.

> If connected to a 20W or higher power source, your MagSafe Battery Pack can charge your iPhone with up to 15W of power. In order to get 7.5W charging on the go, update your MagSafe Battery Pack to the latest firmware. The firmware update begins automatically after you attach your battery pack to your iPhone. The firmware update can take about one week.
