Belkin announced new phone accessories at CES 2025. This brings some freshness to the crowded field of magnetic charging accessories (in other words, MagSafe and non-Apple certified alternatives). The company’s Stage PowerGrip is a wireless power bank, camera-like grip, and stand all rolled into one. It also comes with a small screen and comes in some fun colors.
Belkin markets the Power Grip as an accessory for creators and travelers. Modern smartphones have everything most people need for photography, but holding a candy bar-shaped handset in landscape mode for long periods of time isn’t as comfortable or natural as the firmer grip on a dedicated camera. I feel that it is not. This accessory solves that problem with a thick bulge similar to those found on DSLRs and mirrorless cameras.

Inside that chunk is a 10,000mAh battery that offers 7.5W magnetic wireless charging. The LED on the back allows you to easily check the battery level. The retractable USB-C cable is also tucked inside the accessory, so you don’t have to remember to keep a separate cable in your bag.
Belkin says the Power Grip will be available in powder blue, sandbox, fresh yellow, pepper, and lavender (the company’s press images also show a sixth black option). It is scheduled to be shipped in May this year. Unfortunately, Belkin hasn’t announced pricing yet.
