Baseus knows how to make great charging and audio accessories, and the brand is going all-out ahead of the iPhone 18 Pro launch. The Dark Cherry collection includes five products that are debuting in a bold new cherry red colorway designed to match the Dark Cherry variant of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro.
The highlight of the new collection is the PicoGo Pro AH22, the smallest 100W GaN charger with three USB-C ports. It comes with a built-in panel that shows real-time charging details, and it is now available for $59 on Amazon.

There’s also the PicoGo AM52, a 25W Qi 2.2 power bank with 10,000mAh battery that’s available for $79, and the ultra-thin PicoGo Air AM71 5,000mAh power bank that costs $69. The Bose-tuned Inspire XC1 earbuds get the Dark Cherry makeover as well, and they’re $149. Rounding out the list is the 100W USB-C to USB-C cable, and it costs $12.

Baseus 100W PicoGo Pro AH22: This is the GaN charger you want
I used the PicoGo Pro AH22 as my go-to charger for the last month, and there’s a lot to like. It is noticeably smaller than other 100W chargers I have on hand, and it still has three USB-C ports. The smaller size and the vibrant color makes it a great choice for travel (it’s going straight into my tech bag), and I like that it has a built-in screen that shows real-time charging details, time left to charge, and what protocol a connected device is using.

It has three charging modes — Smart, Gentle, and Turbo — and the Smart mode is useful while charging several devices at once. The Gentle mode is what you need for overnight charging, and Turbo prioritizes the C1 port to 100W.
There’s intelligent device recognition, and I like this feature a lot. Baseus also added a set of fun effects that show up while charging. The individual USB-C ports go up to 100W, and with all three in use, you get a 95W power budget. I used it with my Pixel 11 Pro XL, Find X9 Ultra, Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, iPad Pro M4, and a few dozen accessories, and the charger did a great job.
Baseus PicoGo AM52 25W Qi2.2 10,000mAh Power Bank: Charge anything with ease
The PicoGo AM52 isn’t a new product, and I’ve been using the power bank for the better part of a year. The Qi 2.2 tech allows it to charge phones at 25W, and it’s great to use with the iPhone 17 Pro and Pixel 11 Pro XL.

There’s no doubt that the cherry color looks much better than the standard grey model I’ve been using all this time. The 10,000mAh battery is able to charge the iPhone 17 Pro and Pixel 11 Pro XL to full, and it has a built-in USB-C cable if you need to plug in other devices, going up to 45W.
Baseus PicoGo Air AM71 5,000mAh Power Bank: The thinnest power bank
The PicoGo Air AM71 is a 5,000mAh magnetic power bank, and it is one of the thinnest I’ve used yet. It doesn’t have 25W charging, instead using the standard Qi standard to deliver a 7.5W charge. There is a USB-C port that gets you 22.5W, and the power bank recharges at 20W.

While I’m not a huge fan of ultra-thin power banks, I will admit that the AM71 has unmatched portability. It’s just 0.3 inches and weighs 105g, and is easy to slot into a bag or trousers — I have one in my tech EDC bag. The 5,000mAh battery isn’t enough to charge a phone to full, but it will get your iPhone 17 Pro Max to the halfway point. This is down to energy conversion, and is true of all power banks.
Baseus Inspire XC1: Bose sound for less
I like the Inspire XC1 because of the open ear design, and they’re a good choice if you have issues getting a good fit with regular buds. The cherry color makes these buds stand out a lot from the regular model, and they definitely get a lot of attention while outdoors.
The Bose-tuned sound quality is terrific, and the buds have meaningful bass along with a clean mid-range and good treble. They’re pretty great with calls as well, and have LDAC and IP66 ingress protection. I get over seven hours of battery life between charges, and that’s more than adequate in daily use. The only point of contention is that the cherry variant is $149, which is a sizeable increase over the $99 that the regular model costs these days.
Baseus FrostCool: A reliable 100W USB-C cable
I have a lot of these cables in the house, and they’re reliable in everyday use. The cherry color is the only difference here, and other than that, it’s the same cable: it can deliver a 100W charge over USB PD, is 6.6ft in length, and the braided design is built to last.
Baseus is going all-in on Dark Cherry, and I like that the brand has an entire range of accessories available in the new colorway. While there’s a little bit of a wait before we know all about the iPhone 18 Pro, you can get a head-start by grabbing the accessories you need.
