The Best MagSafe Wireless Chargers

More Good MagSafe Chargers

Here are a few other MagSafe wireless chargers we have tested that didn’t quite manage to earn a place above.

UAG Wireless Charging Pad and Stand for $60: If you like industrial design with a carbon-fiber finish, this magnetic charging puck from Urban Armor Gear is solid. It has a handy kickstand for propping your iPhone in landscape orientation to watch a video, and it comes with a detachable, rugged 4-foot USB-C cable but no power adapter. UAG says it can deliver up to 15 watts but is not Qi2-certified. It’s just way too expensive.

Anker MagGo Wireless Charger Pad (Qi2) for $30: Our top pick until Apple’s redesign, this Qi2 charger brings MagSafe-style magnetic charging and a 15-watt charging rate. This pad stays put, has a durable aluminum casing that stays relatively cool, and has a 5-foot USB-C cable permanently attached. It can also charge AirPods with a magnetic charging case, but does not come with a power adapter.

Belkin BoostCharge Pro Convertible Magnetic Wireless Charging Stand for $45: This Qi2-certified stand has a magnetic pad that can lie flat to charge older phones or fold out to act as a stand for MagSafe iPhones and other Qi2 phones in portrait or landscape orientation (handy for StandBy mode). It charges at up to 15 watts and comes with a 5-foot USB-C to USB-C cable and a power supply.

Casetify PowerThru 2-in-1 Charging Stand for $92: If you want a charger for your MagSafe iPhone and AirPods (or other earbuds), this one from Casetify is a decent pick. It has a squared-off base with an indent for AirPods, a metallic rod, and a slightly adjustable MagSafe pad for your iPhone that charges at 7.5 watts. I don’t love the visible logo around the pad or the options with basketball courts and other designs for the base, and it has a bright LED.

Casetify Magnetic Wireless Charger for $38: Cute design galore elevates Casetify’s MagSafe charger lineup. It offers more than 600 designs, from cat art to sports teams. It is a Qi charger with MagSafe, so it will align perfectly with MagSafe iPhones and charge at 7.5 watts, but it also supports Qi charging and can juice up any Qi phone at up to 15 watts. It comes with a 3.3-foot, permanently attached, black and white, braided USB-C cable, but you need a power adapter.

Mophie’s 3-in-1 Travel Charger With MagSafe for $90: This is a nice travel option, though it takes up a bit more space when it’s unfolded. It folds neatly into a fabric case with a cable and charging adapter. It will fast-charge iPhones at 15 watts, and this updated model includes fast-charging support for the Apple Watch and has a spot for your AirPods Pro.
