Slow charging: Even after having a small battery, iPhone Air can charge 50% in 30mins while iPhone 17 Pro/Max can charge 50% in 20mins

Due to small battery, Apple has also launched a Magsafe battery pack, also called powerbank, priced at 100$ or Rs.11,900 for the iPhone Air "exclusively". iFixit teardown showed that, Apple put a iPhone Air battery only inside the magsafe battery pack. This means, if you remove the magsafe battery & put it inside the iPhone Air, it will just work.
