The 10 best tech stocking stuffers people will actually want

A large part of my job involves testing MagSafe battery packs for ZDNET, and as someone who’s tried over a dozen in this year alone, I’d recommend gifting most people the Torras MiniMag over any other battery pack this season. 

Also: This ultra-thin battery pack I tested is a must-have travel gadget (and it works with MagSafe)

This 5,000mAh battery pack is a great, typical battery capacity for everyday power-ups as well as a backup boost during concerts, outings, day trips, commutes, and more. The big difference between this pack and other 5,000mAh options on the market is the size. The Torras MiniMag is ultra-thin (thinner than an iPhone 15 itself), which is not typical of MagSafe battery packs. 

Because of its slim design, it’s a lot more comfortable to carry around in bags or purses, as well as comfortable to use while holding your phone. If you’re going to gift a MagSafe battery this season, I highly recommend choosing this slim option due to the versatility it really gives you. So many times people buy battery packs only to realize they’re really too bulky for their daily needs, so I encourage both buyers and gifters to start small.
