Triple Threat: MacPower 3in1 KMPB10 Revolutionizes Productivity with Encoding, Stand, and Auxiliary Battery in One Game-Changing Device

[리뷰타임스=테피파니 리뷰어] I have used and tested various auxiliary batteries and what I hear every time is that new products are constantly coming out with improvements and additions to areas that I felt were lacking. This is a great thing from a testing standpoint and from a consumer standpoint. The product I am presenting to you today is a dream come true.

The Mac Power 3in1 KMPB10 that we will introduce today is a wired and wireless auxiliary battery that supports 10000mAh. It also supports MagSafe for iPhone. If you look at it this far, there is no difference from other products. However, this product is a stationary type. Among the products I have used, there are products that use the ring method for mounting, but I think this is the first time I have seen a product that can be used as a full-fledged stand.

The Coding brand specializes in accessories for digital devices such as smartphones. Since it says coding in Korean, I thought the CEO was a former programmer, but in English it says Kording. hehe

We communicate emotionally with customers through handwriting on the front of the package, which is carefully wrapped with an air cushion inside the wrapping paper for delivery. It’s a small thing, but it seems to make a big impression. The white-toned packaging shows the main features and detailed specifications along with photos of the actual product. Although it is made in China, it has also received KC certification.

The composition of the product is no different from any other auxiliary battery. It includes the main body, manual and charging cable. The product is released in two colors: black and white, and I used the white version. White always seems to be the truth. However, it would have been better if the white product also had a white cable.

The body is finished in matte plastic. This is a finish that I really like. It has a smooth, non-slip texture and does not easily show fingerprints. However, this type of finish tends to transfer color if used for a long time. I have used it without carelessly throwing it in my backpack for about two weeks, but fortunately there has not been any color transfer yet. On the front, there is a magnetic ring for MagSafe, which protrudes slightly from the surface. Perhaps it seems that they inevitably sacrificed thickness to make the magnetism stronger. On the back, there is a textured leather cover, which can be folded in three stages and used as a stand. This is the biggest advantage of the Mac Power 3in1 KMPB10 encoding.

Encoding MacPower 3in1 KMPB10 has a power button on the side, a USB-C terminal for input and output, and a status notification LED light on the bottom. Since it is a wireless backup battery, the power button must be placed separately. When you press the power button, the smartphone connected to MagSafe is recognized and the power is turned on automatically. For this reason, you should wait a few seconds after pressing the power button instead of turning it on immediately. Please note that this is not a malfunction.

The product size is small for a 10000 mAh battery. It is a little bigger than a credit card, so it is not difficult to hold. However, the grip feel is slightly different. It is not light at about 210 grams. We can’t help it since it packs a capacity of 10,000 milliamps into a small size. The thickness is about 18 millimeters, quite thin compared to the large capacity.

Coding It is really useful to summarize the stand, which is an advantage of the Mac Power 3in1 KMPB10. Usually, when the auxiliary batteries are not at hand, they are placed on the floor. So, you have to stretch your head to look at the screen while working. This product is very convenient because you can place your smartphone as a stand so you can look at it while working. In addition, the slope of the stand is excellent. When you lift your iPhone, it maintains a good angle to view the content of the screen. Of course, it is also convenient to watch videos by holding it in a horizontal position.

The mount attaches with a magnet. The magnet is strong, so once mounted it won’t collapse unless you apply a lot of force. If you look closely at the mount, there is a small gap between it and the main body, so when you cover the mount, it fits snugly as if it were one piece with the main body. When you open the mount, there is a small groove at the top, so if you lift it with your fingertips, it opens up conveniently.

The photo shows Coding Mac Power 3in1 KMPB10 connected to iPhone 15. The size of the product fits the iPhone perfectly as if it were measured with a ruler, making it look like a real Apple power bank. On the other hand, I tried to connect it to the iPhone Mini, but it is slightly larger than the Mini. It can be said that it is a size that fits the iPhone well. There seems to be some likes and dislikes regarding the grip. The bottom edge of the body is angled to accommodate the stand, so when you hold it firmly with your hand, you can feel the angle of the edge. It could be less slippery due to the special edges, but if you want a soft grip, it might irritate the bottom of your hand when you squeeze it hard.

When charging wirelessly, the iPhone displays the MagSafe ring animation. Some power banks do not display the ring animation, but this product recognizes it just like a real power bank and draws the animation smoothly.

I tried to charge it. Since it is 10000mAh, if it does not support fast charging, it will take a long time to fully charge the battery. However, Coding Mac Power 3in1 KMPB10 supports PD charging, so it charges without any problems. As shown in the photo, it showed fast charging at over 18 watts during charging.

Even when charging the iPhone via cable, it was up to 20 watts. When charging wirelessly, it is said to charge up to 15 watts. Even when I actually charged it, it did not seem slow to me. Of course, you can also charge Apple Watch and AirPods. That’s why the product name is 3in1. Although it cannot charge 3 products at the same time, this product has the advantage of being able to charge iPhone, Watch and AirPods. It is also advantageous in terms of heat generation and noise. If you charge it for a long time, it generates heat, but it is not hot. And although there is a high-pitched noise characteristic of a wireless charger, it is not at a level that interferes with calls. Some products produce high-pitched sounds during phone calls, which can sometimes be unpleasant.

While using it, something came to my mind. I tried to charge the battery while charging with MagSafe and it didn’t work. When you connect the charging cable, the MagSafe charging will automatically stop. The reason is that since it is mountable, it can also be used as a stand if the charging cable is always connected. To do this, the USB-C terminal and the LED lamp must be moved to the side instead of the bottom of the product. If this is improved in the next product, it will not be necessary to buy a separate stand.

To sum up, the Coding Mac Power 3in1 KMPB10 has a clean design and looks like a real Apple power bank. It is easy to use on a desk thanks to the sturdy stand and the right angle. There is less heat or noise while charging, so there is less strain when talking or holding it. On the other hand, it would be nice if the weight was a little lighter. Paired with the iPhone 15, it weighs almost 400 grams. The 10,000 mAh capacity can charge an iPhone about twice, so it is suitable for those who are active outdoors and want a clean design.
