Ugreen Launches Liquid-Cooled MagFlow Pro Battery

Ugreen has launched a magnetic power bank equipped with a liquid-cooling mechanism. The product is named the MagFlow Pro Magnetic Power Bank. It is priced at $149.99 and has a capacity of 10,000mAh. Sales began on September 3, 2026. It is drawing attention as an announcement timed with IFA 2026.

In reporting by Andrew Liszewski of The Verge, the product is described as the world’s first liquid-cooled power bank with wireless charging. Its distinctive design allows the coolant flow to be seen through a window on the front. It is presented as a solution to heat issues accompanying higher-output wireless charging.

Full Details of the World’s First

Liquid-Cooling System

At the core of the MagFlow Pro is a cooling system called CryoPulse technology. A micro-pump circulates coolant to carry heat away from heat-generating parts. This includes the Qi2.2-compatible wireless charging coil. The front features a window called the Cyber Window. The structure allows the coolant flow to be directly observed through the window.

Cooling does not rely on liquid circulation alone. It combines heat dissipation through copper foil with a separated component layout. Charging-related components are distributed to suppress heat concentration. By reducing heat buildup, it aims to curb battery degradation. It is also intended to reduce the heat load on the connected smartphone.

It suppresses the rise in surface temperature even after prolonged charging. It is expected to reduce discomfort when held in the hand. The mechanism also helps maintain output during wireless charging. It serves to stabilize up to 25W of wireless output. Visualizing the cooling mechanism also serves as a way to showcase the feature.

Qi2.2 Support and Sustained 25W Output

Wireless charging supports Qi2.2. Magnetic attachment minimizes misalignment and ensures efficiency. It is designed to sustain up to 25W of output. The idea is to prevent output drops by suppressing heat. The key point is the combination of the cooling system and the magnetic mechanism.

By its nature, wireless charging inevitably generates heat. Losses in the coil and on the receiving side turn into heat. Magnetic fixation improves efficiency, but close contact hinders heat dissipation. The higher the output, the more important heat countermeasures become. The adoption of liquid cooling is the answer to this challenge.

Copper foil and the separated layout serve as passive measures. Active circulation by the micro-pump complements them. The configuration suppresses heat retention through dual means. It seeks to balance battery life with device protection. The cooling window also functions as a means to check operating status.

45W Wired Charging and Built-in Cable

Configuration

For wired charging, it is equipped with two USB-C options. One is a built-in USB-C cable that doubles as a carrying strap. The other is a USB-C port on the unit itself. Each supports up to 45W output on its own. However, the unit’s total maximum output is also limited to 45W.

When multiple devices are connected simultaneously, output is distributed. Each port does not maintain maximum output at the same time. Output is also limited when wireless and wired charging are used together. It supports simultaneous charging of three devices, but speed decreases. It is a configuration that requires use according to the application.

The built-in cable enhances portability. There is no need to carry a separate cable. It is designed to integrate with the unit as a strap. The additional port also supports stationary use. Users need to understand the output-distribution specifications in advance.

Why Heat Countermeasures for Wireless

Charging Are Becoming Important

Higher-output wireless charging is an industry-wide trend. Positioning by magnetic attachment has become widespread, improving efficiency. However, heat generation at high output remains a challenge. It can cause battery degradation and reduced charging speed. Heat countermeasures are becoming a key differentiator.

Conventional measures have focused on heat-dissipating materials and output control. These are methods that dissipate heat with graphite or metal housings. Control that throttles output when temperature rises is also common. Liquid cooling is positioned as a more active method. It can be seen as an application of cooling technologies from PCs and smartphones.

The visualization element is also meaningful for product appeal. The coolant flow serves as evidence that the function is real. The windowed design strongly appeals to enthusiasts. It can be evaluated as an attempt to combine performance and appearance. It is drawing attention as an example of evolving heat countermeasures.

Positioning as a Premium Product in the Market

$149.99 is in the expensive range for the 10,000mAh class. Products in this capacity range have been getting cheaper. The cooling mechanism and Qi2.2 support justify the price. The built-in cable and magnetic support are also added-value elements. It is priced for users who prioritize features.

Securing power is a challenge when operating multiple devices on the go. When considering use alongside a laptop, choosing the right model is also important. Cost-effectiveness of current models is broken down in Surface Laptop 7th Edition Is the Best Buy as New Model Gets Pricey. Using a smartphone as the core for music playback extends the experience touched on in YouTube Music Gemini Integration Transforms the Android Music Experience. The growing device load from expanding agent-based processing is not unrelated to the infrastructure moves shown in Agentic Infra Chosen by Four Companies, Infinigence’s Strategy.

A variety of portable devices are being announced at IFA 2026. Power-related products are also becoming higher-output and smaller. The adoption of liquid cooling is a clear differentiator. Verification of effectiveness and durability will be the future focus. The question will be whether it offers value commensurate with its price.

Editorial Opinion

Looking at the short-term impact. In the next three to six months, we see the focus being on whether competitors follow suit. Heat countermeasures for Qi2.2-compatible products could become a key point in product coverage. We assess that visualized designs like the cooling window will spread to other companies’ products. Acceptance of the price range should become clear through actual sales. We see verification reports on durability and sustained output influencing purchasing decisions.

From a long-term perspective, we see the question being whether active cooling in power products becomes commonplace. We assess that the reliability and serviceability of micro-pumps will be conditions for widespread adoption. We also see the remaining challenge of increased volume and weight due to the cooling mechanism. We think overall design combining heat countermeasures on the device side will become important. We see it influencing standard thermal design in the era of high-output wireless.

We note questions from the editorial team. It is asked how much cooling performance contributed to maintaining output. The question remains whether long-term reliability with enclosed liquid has been sufficiently verified. We also see as an issue whether the windowed design prioritizes practicality or ornamentation. It is asked whether the $149.99 price can be justified by its features. We think teardown verification to clarify the cooling path is awaited.
