A 5,000mAh top-up that snaps to your phone and slips into the same pocket.
Magnetic attachment, a built-in USB-C cable, and 22.5W of wired speed in a 9mm body.
- 5,000mAh capacity (19.35Wh)
- 22.5W max output via the built-in USB-C cable or the USB-C port
- Magnetic snap-on attachment with a grip exceeding 10N
- PD, QC3.0 and SCP fast-charge protocols
- IPX7 waterproof aluminium alloy housing
- 9mm (0.35") thin, 125g (4.41 oz)
- UN38.3 certified, carry-on friendly for flights
- Titanium Gray, Alloy Orange and Cobalt Blue
Three things you notice the first time you use it.
IT JUST SNAPS ON AND WORKS - Pull the built-in cable out of its slot, snap the POCKET 5 onto the back of your phone, and plug in. One hand, one motion, and you keep walking, texting or navigating while it charges.
YOU FORGET IT IS THERE - It sits flush against your phone like a slim case rather than a separate battery pack. The metal body draws heat away from the cell, so it stays comfortable to hold even during fast charging.
YOUR PHONE CHARGES OVER A WIRE - Power runs through USB-C, not a wireless pad, so more of the stored energy reaches your phone. Clip it on at 15% before a meeting and walk out with a usable charge.
WHY THE POCKET 5 STANDS OUT
Wired speed, magnetic convenience
Many magnetic power banks charge over a wireless pad, which gives up energy as heat. The POCKET 5 keeps the magnetic snap-on hold and sends power down a USB-C wire, so charging runs faster and cooler.
More usable energy per gram
A 3.87V high-voltage cell delivers 154.8mWh/g energy density and 3,400mAh of rated energy at 5V. That is roughly 21% more than the typical 2,800mAh from a standard 5,000mAh magnetic power bank, by Nitecore Lab testing.
Built for daily reality
An IPX7 waterproof rating and a V0 flame-retardant aluminium alloy housing mean a rain shower, a damp backpack pocket or a splash by the sink are all handled in stride.
Cleared for take-off
Certified to the UN38.3 transport standard, and at 19.35Wh it sits well under the 100Wh carry-on limit for commercial flights. Pack it in your carry-on and move through security with one less question.
102mm x 70mm x 9mm. Smaller than a deck of cards, thinner than most phone cases.
The POCKET 5 slides into a front jeans pocket and disappears. At 9mm (0.35") thick it adds barely any bulk when it is magnetically attached, sitting close to the profile of a slim case.
The aluminium alloy housing does double duty. It gives a clean bare-metal feel and pulls heat away from the cell during charging, so the surface stays comfortable in your hand under sustained output.
Dimensions: 102mm x 70mm x 9mm (4.02" x 2.76" x 0.35"). Weight: 125g plus or minus 5g (4.41 oz).
Two USB-C outputs, 22.5W each, with PD, QC3.0 and SCP.
Both the built-in USB-C cable (C2) and the USB-C port (C1) deliver up to 22.5W on their own, with PD, QC3.0 and SCP fast-charge support. Use one for your phone and the other for a friend's, charging both at the same time at up to 15W total.
Input runs at 18W max through either connection, so you can refill the POCKET 5 from a wall adapter using the built-in cable, or plug a separate cable into the USB-C port.
Pass-through charging keeps everything topped up. Plug the POCKET 5 into the wall and it recharges itself while still powering your connected device, handy at a desk or café with a single free outlet.
Same 5,000mAh on the label, more energy where it counts.
The 3.87V high-voltage cell packs 154.8mWh/g of energy density, against the typical 3.7V cell in a standard 5,000mAh magnetic power bank. More of the stored energy reaches your phone instead of being lost to voltage conversion.
In Nitecore Lab testing that works out to 3,400mAh of rated energy at 5V, roughly 21% more than the 2,800mAh average from a standard pack of the same headline capacity.
A magnetic grip past 10N, with no alignment to fuss over.
The POCKET 5 snaps to the back of your phone and stays put. Bring it close and it pulls itself into the right position on its own, so one-handed attachment is effortless.
In Nitecore Lab testing with an iPhone 17 (177g) as the reference, the grip held about 1,000g, roughly the weight of 5.6 iPhones stacked together. That keeps the pack locked on while you walk, scroll or slip your phone into a jacket.
Magnetic here means physical attachment only. The POCKET 5 does not charge wirelessly. All power runs through wired USB-C, which is faster and more efficient.
Works with iPhone and Android.
iPhone: Snaps straight onto any MagSafe-compatible iPhone, bare or in a MagSafe case, with no adapter needed.
Android: Attaches with a magnetic case. A magnetic ring is included in the box, so you can add snap-on support to a case that needs it.
Either way, the built-in cable does the charging, so the magnetic hold simply keeps the pack tidy against your phone while it works.
IPX7 waterproof and V0 flame-retardant.
The POCKET 5 takes the conditions that end most power banks. An IPX7 rating covers heavy rain, an accidental puddle drop and a damp backpack pocket, with multiple layers of waterproof protection across the internal components and the external seams.
The housing uses V0 flame-retardant material, the highest UL 94 class for resistance to ignition. Together with the sealing, that makes for a pack built to shrug off everyday knocks, moisture and temperature swings.
The POCKET 5 is not designed for underwater use. Dry it thoroughly if it has been submerged.
An MCU and dual NTC thermistors managing 9 layers of protection.
A dedicated microcontroller watches charging and discharging in real time, paired with two NTC thermistors for precise temperature sensing.
Together they cover overcurrent, intelligent thermal, optimised charge and discharge, short-circuit, over-discharge, button, overcharge, accurate power indication and overvoltage protection.
The 4-LED indicator gives a clear read on remaining charge, and the POCKET 5 runs across an operating range of -10°C to 35°C (14°F to 95°F).

Can I use my phone while the POCKET 5 is magnetically attached and charging?
Yes. The pack snaps onto the back of your phone and charges through the built-in cable, so you can keep scrolling, navigating or texting while it tops you up. The magnetic hold keeps it in place in your hand or in a pocket.
Can I bring the POCKET 5 on a plane?
Yes. The POCKET 5 is UN38.3 certified, and at 19.35Wh it sits well under the 100Wh limit for carry-on lithium batteries on commercial flights. Pack it in your carry-on rather than checked luggage, in line with airline rules for lithium batteries.
Will it attach to my Android phone?
Yes, with a magnetic case. MagSafe iPhones attach directly, bare or cased. For Android phones you can use a magnetic case, or fit the included magnetic ring to your existing case to enable the snap-on hold.
