GoKawiilTL;DR Samsung’s Qi2 Magnet Wireless Battery Pack for the Galaxy S26 is now available to buy.
The accessory costs about $65 and is listed on Samsung’s online store, though shipping is rolling out gradually in some regions.
The power bank packs a 5,000mAh battery, delivering up to 15W wireless charging or 25W wired charging through USB-C.

Interestingly, Samsung didn’t just slap magnets into a generic power bank. The design was adjusted specifically for the Galaxy S26’s hardware layout.
The battery pack has a cutout around the magnetic ring, allowing it to fit neatly around the Galaxy S26 camera module. This is important because the S26 series has a large vertical camera bump, which can make some third-party magnetic accessories incompatible.
