No. Only the 12/13 series lines.
I think you're both missing the point of a battery pack. When this thing is installed and attached, the phone will stay at 100% until the battery pack is depleted will it not? You don't need fast charging for a battery pack since you are not plugged into a wall. It just gives you more juice.
Honestly wonder why anyone needs a battery pack anyway. I would have to be on my phone 10+ hours a day to run out of battery. If it runs out, it charges to 50% in like 30 minutes.
I've had this charger for a few weeks and I'm pretty happy with it. It's good for travel because I can just stick it on the back of my iPhone 13 pro and it keeps it charged while watching a movie. It charges slowly but I like the convenience of the built-in kickstand and not having to mess around with cables.
I preordered a 13 pro max and it still hasn't shipped. How have you had this and a 13 pro for a few weeks? Sus

Thin case? I have magnetic charging devices and the magnets hold is weak to barely felt.
Yes you're correct. I assumed they meant without it as I was not aware it came with that at the time I posted that.
Mine just showed up I and put it on my daughters 12 Pro Max and didn't add that magnet thing (am I supposed to?) and the phone with no case and putting this thing on and I must say the magnets suck. I haven't used any other brand or tried anything else but I'm not impressed except on the price with this one. If they're all like this no thanks. Personally speaking the silicone Apple branded battery case they used to make I'd take any day over this wireless magnetic stuff. It's only downfall was no off/on switch.
Why wouldn't someone that has a phone that has fast charging want fast charging when the phone is charging? Charging off this is no different than charging off a wireless charger plugged into the wall at home, except for the portable one being a finite amount of charge. If given the option, why wouldn't someone want their phone to charge faster?
Do you never use your phone? Heavy phone users regularly must recharge their phone throughout the day. Sometimes you are just away from somewhere where you can plug in for extended periods of time. Batteries also degrade over time, so an older battery won't have the same capacity as a brand new battery. If recharging phones on the go was not a common issue, we wouldn;t see so many of these things being made and sold.
MagSafe battery pack can always attached to the phone…basically adding battery. This doesn't need fast charging for something that's attached to the phone. A normal battery pack would definitely be better having fast charging, of course.
Charging a battery pack would also be nice to have fast charging…unless the iPhone iteself is capable of charging the MagSafe battery pack, in which case you would likely use your 20W USB-C to Lightning to charge the phone and battery pack at the same time. Again, you don't need fast charging when having the battery pack. 5W charging is enough to be using the phone at the same time - the reason for buying a MagSafe version battery pack.
Define a heavy user? If you're saying you use your phone for 10 hours a day, what job do you have? I can maybe understand being on an iPad for 10 hours.
I have had the iPhone XR, 11Pro and 12Pro. After a year of use, all of them still had at least 90% battery life. If you're as a heavy user as you say you are, I'd be upgrading my phone every year, so battery life would never be a concern.
