Starting with the MagSafe Battery Pack, this is available for $84.00, down from $99.00. We haven't tracked a decent deal on this accessory in a few months, making this a great opportunity for anyone who's been waiting for a markdown. Overall, this is a second-best price.



The Apple Pencil 2 is on sale for $89.00, down from $129.00. This is a match of the deal price we tracked over Prime Day earlier in the month.

That battery pack will get you a whole extra 30 minutes of battery life. While competing, much larger batteries are 1/5th the price. Quite the “deal”

The official Apple Magsafe battery charger is garbage. For less, I highly recommend the MagSafe packs from Anker. They give you 1.5 charges, they offer a stand, pass-through charging and they are very reliable. The Apple item is a terrible "deal" even at this price.
 
they're selling off all the lightning charger devices before the switch to usb c
I'm very curious if they'll up the price of their USB C cables after they announce the new iphones. 6ft usb to lightning cable is $30ish. 6 ft usb c to usb c is only $19, the same price as the 3 foot cable according to their store.
 
I bought the Pencil 2 when it was on sale before on Amazon. The MagSafe Battery pack is useless for me since I have a Anker portable charger box that can charge all of my Apple devices and let use the MagSafe duo at the same time.
Anker used to be good but after the scandal I do not trust them

I mean it's a little better than that; but yeah. It's definitely an example of Apple having a very non-competitive product.

I have the Anker battery pack. It charges via USB-C and can completely recharge my iPhone from nearly dead. I can also pop it on in the morning if I'm traveling and doing stuff and don't know when I'll be near a charger again, and at the end of the day my phone is still at 100%. It's a really handy accessory for significantly less than the Apple product, with the only advantage of the Apple product being the second magnet so that it doesn't 'spin' on the back of the phone. Plus the USB-C port works in both directions so you can charge other devices from it and use it like a standard USB battery pack.

I'm a fully self-aware Apple fanboy but the iPhone magnetic battery goes alongside the Magic Mouse as "Seriously, Apple?" category.
