On Tuesday Apple started selling a MagSafe battery pack for the iPhone 12 product line. It’s available to purchase for US$99.
MagSafe Battery Pack
The battery pack is available in white with the usual Apple logo on the back. If you zoom in closely on one of the images it shows a battery capacity of 1,460mAh, which may not be enough for a full charge.

Apple does say that iOS 14.7 is required to use it. By itself the pack can charge your iPhone at 5W, and if it’s connected to a 20W or higher power source you’ll get up to 15W of power, enough for Fast Charging.
When you’re using your MagSafe Battery Pack to charge your iPhone, you might get a notification that says your iPhone will charge only up to 90%. To charge past 90%, open Control Center, press and hold the Low Power Mode icon, then tap Continue.
I.am thinking that others will also offer such chargers.
