5 MagSafe Accessories Compatible With The iPhone Duo

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links.

The iPhone Duo debuted with much fanfare, but Apple's first foldable iPhone has a MagSafe problem because of its shorter height than a traditional iPhone. This means many of the existing accessories, like MagSafe wallets or some power banks, can potentially overhang, which is not an ideal situation or functionally suitable. It's a similar problem to what the Mini iPhone models faced. As a result, it's slightly trickier to pick a MagSafe accessory for an iPhone Duo. That said, the situation is not completely dire, because there are still plenty of MagSafe gadgets that you can use with the foldable iPhone without trouble. Moreover, some accessory makers, like BMX, have already released Duo-specific gadgets, whereas others, like Bionic and Moft, are currently accepting pre-orders.

These Duo-specific accessories are not only options that you can consider to add to your arsenal, but also give a fair idea of what will effectively fit an iPhone Duo. For example, BMX's SolidSafe Duo 5K Power Bank is 3.47 by 3.03 by 0.44 inches in size, which means anything smaller than these dimensions should work fine with the Duo. You don't even have to worry about size with many other MagSafe accessory categories, like grip rings or MagSafe chargers, since they just need space about the diameter of a MagSafe ring or a bit more.

Keeping all these factors in mind, we have handpicked some of the most useful MagSafe accessories for the iPhone Duo to help you get started. Besides the dimensions, we considered buyer feedback as well as expert opinions when available when selecting these gadgets.

If you're someone who likes to use phone grips to make it easier to hold big, bulky phones, the Torras 2025 Flagship 360 magnetic phone grip ring is a good option. It comes in multiple color options and is officially compatible with the iPhone Duo. Another highlight of the Torras offering is that it can work both as a phone grip and a kickstand, thanks to its two-in-one ring design. The smaller ring adds to the grip, while you can pop out the bigger ring to prop up the phone.

Its stainless steel construction is durable and feels premium. The Flagship 360 is available for $30 on Amazon, where shoppers have given it a solid score of 4.4 out of five stars after nearly 46,000 ratings. Buyers like its sleek design, strong magnets, and seamless support for foldable phones. However, one buyer mentions that while the Torras gadget works fine as a grip and a kickstand, the magnet isn't strong enough to hold the iPhone Duo to other metal surfaces, which is one of the features that Torras advertises. 

A small selection of buyers also complain about the small ring becoming loose or breaking off after just a few months. That said, the company offers a 365-day replacement warranty for the phone grip ring.

If you need a storage upgrade for your iPhone Duo, the SanDisk Creator Phone SSD is a reliable option you may want to consider. While it can't replace your iPhone's internal storage, this solid-state drive (SSD) can come in handy for storing photos, videos, and other content that you don't need readily accessible. It comes in two storage capacities, one terabyte (TB) and two TB, so you can choose one based on your budget and needs. The one-terabyte version will cost you $225, while the two-terabyte model runs $320.

Thanks to built-in MagSafe magnets, this SSD will seamlessly attach to the back of your iPhone and connect via a supplied flat USB-C cable. More importantly,  the device can leverage the iPhone Duo's fast USB 3.2 Gen 2 10 gigabits-per-second (Gbps) speeds for fast data transfers. You also get IP65 dust and water resistance for durability. Experts at Cult of Mac, MacWorld, and Storage Review have good things to say about it and appreciate its rugged design and MagSafe support. However, they also found the bundled cable to be a bit bulky. 

Amazon shoppers have also awarded the SanDisk offering a strong average score of 4.5 stars after more than 200 ratings. They say it works well with iPhones and is a good solution to store tons of photos. Some buyers complain about Files app incompatibility, but Sandisk reports that the problem has been resolved. Otherwise, the only other issue some shoppers note is its relatively bulky design.

If you're looking for a way to mount your iPhone Duo in your car while charging it wirelessly, the ESR OmniLock magnetic car charger is worth considering. It attaches to your car's air-conditioning vents and holds your iPhone using MagSafe magnets. ESR says the device houses strong magnets for a secure mount and can deliver up to 25 watts of charging, thanks to built-in Qi2 charging support. Moreover, it provides tons of adjustment options to get the ideal viewing angle and has a built-in fan for active cooling.

It's important to note here that iPhone Duo tends to tilt one way when attached to a MagSafe stand or mount in an unfolded state because of the uneven weight distribution. This is a problem with most magnetic mounts and has also been confirmed by at least one Amazon shopper with the ESR offering. As a result, it may be best to mount the phone folded and use the outer secondary display to interact with it while on the ESR OmniLock magnetic car charger.

The ESR offering costs $57 on Amazon, where it has a buyer score of 4.3 stars after about 400 ratings. Experts at Pocket Lint and 9to5Mac have a largely positive opinion of the ESR offering and like the presence of a cooling fan and the extra USB-A port on the supplied 12-volt adapter. However, they also raise some concerns about the durability of the included USB-C cable (which is a bit thin). Meanwhile, Amazon buyers highlight the strong magnetic connection, easy installation, and fast charging speed. However, some shoppers complain about the wireless charger dying within months of purchase or just breaking down.

The Baseus Picogo 5,000-milliampere-hour (mAh) magnetic portable charger is one of the smallest power banks in its battery capacity category, making it pretty suitable for the iPhone Duo. It's even smaller than BMX's power bank that is specifically made for the Duo. As the name suggests, the Picogo has a marketed capacity of 5,000 mAh, but be aware that the company doesn't mention its rated capacity. That said, Baseus does mention that the power bank will deliver around 2,750 mAh to 3,250 mAh of actual battery capacity, meaning it's more suitable for a quick top-off rather than a full zero-to-100% charge.

The Picogo can also offer up to 15 watts of charging over Qi2 and 20 watts over USB-C, both of which, while not the fastest for the iPhone Duo, are reasonably quick in a pinch. Other features include the Baseus power bank's aluminum construction for a sleek design and a built-in kickstand.

The Baseus Picogo Magnetic Portable Charger is priced at $30, and you can choose from two color options. It has also garnered a decent score of 4.1 stars (out of five) on Amazon. Shoppers are happy with its slim design and USB PD support but call out its tendency to get too hot.

Besides two MagSafe-compatible cases for the iPhone Duo, the only other first-party MagSafe accessory for the foldable is Apple's MagSafe charger. As you might expect, it's fully compatible with the iPhone Duo and can deliver the full 25 watts of wireless charging supported by the iPhone. You will, however, need a 30-watt power adapter to enjoy the top charging speed. Apple says the MagSafe charger can take the iPhone Duo to 50% in about 30 minutes.

The charger costs $39 for the version with a one-meter cable and $49 for the two-meter version. You can choose based on how much flexibility you want in terms of being away from a wall outlet. Being a MagSafe charger, this gadget sticks to the back of the iPhone Duo and charges it wirelessly. The included USB-C cable is also braided for better durability.

Amazon shoppers have scored the charger at 4.5 stars (out of five) based on almost 2,000 ratings and appreciate its convenience, fast charging, optional long cable, and reliability. That said, some buyers aren't happy with having to buy a wall adapter separately, and others have reported receiving units that are defective.

As mentioned at the outset, iPhone Duo's oddball form factor and short height mean you can't automatically assume that every MagSafe accessory will work with it seamlessly. Some can actually overhang and look weird, making some of the combinations unstable. That's why, while putting together our iPhone Duo MagSafe recommendations, we focused on compatibility and looked for gadgets for which manufacturers officially either claim Duo compatibility or have dimensions that are small enough that they will work fine with the phone. 

We also consulted buyer reviews as well as expert feedback (when available) to refine our selections. All our recommendations are available on Amazon, where they have scored a minimum rating of four out of five stars from the retailer's customers, indicating a generally favorable buyer opinion.
