Just went looking and found a comparable deal for an Anker portable magsafe charger.
Mine shows a 30% coupon, making the price about $21 as well. It's only 5,000mah compared to this baseus unit which is 6,000mah but I feel like Anker is a more trusted name.

Mfi certified MagSafes communicate between the iPhone and the power bank/charger to regulate heat, even if it's at the expense of speed.
Aside from this, the iPhone knows if it's on wireless charging if it's an official MagSafe accessory…it turns off any background tasks that might make the phone too hot (cloud syncing, internal system optimisations etc.) as opposed to non certified accessories that makes the phone think it is on wired mode…making it do the exact opposite on power saving and actually starts doing background tasks more heavily.

Also not sure about Baseus but Anker says they limit the power bank so it doesn't fully charge to prolong the lifespan(Like expensive phones where you can limit the battery to charge up to 80%) so not only do you lose a chung in the convertion rate but also with this limitation!
I'm looking for an under 10k mAh bank with the highest pd wired charge that doesn't cost a liver

With portable chargers I prefer "Super Fast Charging" on my Samsung (45W and wicked fast if you are low), USB-PD for my laptop and Drone. Sadly I have to carry 2 power packs to meet those needs when extended traveling. I used some Samsung rewards from buying my phone to get the charger below (from Samsung/ not Amazon). We plug it in on the nightstand at our hotel, charge up both phones and the bank overnight (pass thru and wireless charging). Sadly, it's doesn't do USB-PD and fast charge my DJI Mini 3 pro batteries. Still waiting for a nicely built portable charger that does USB-PD 100W for my laptop and some type of good, fast charging spec on my S23U.

This charger is great for recent Samsung owners.

It may not fully charge a flagship phone the full 100%. It's the nature of wireless and even non-wireless portable power. Inefficiencies add up.

It also does well as a pass though charger. I use it to charge the phone and the battery pack at the same time.
Cons are that for whatever reason my airpod pros don't work with it and I tested the USB-c out and it only outputs at 12w.
Android phones aren't designed with magsafe in mind and their wireless charging coil might not be in the best spot to make all accessories work well.
Even now, the rings on cases are very inconsistent, and there is some margin for error, but not a lot. Some cases have the ring too high whee rectangular accessories interfere with the camera bump. My case sits it a little lower. It'll generally charge with most magsafe accessories, but every now and then I encounter something where it doesn't sit right.
That said, the Qi consortium is going to have their version finalized soon, so I imagine most new android phones will be designed with proper coil spacing to work with the accessories and no potential mismatch like you can have with magsafe ones.
