The Best MagSafe Wireless Chargers

Folks with the holy trinity of Apple products will love Belkin’s 3-in-1 charging tree. It has a similar design to the 2-in-1 below, but the metal post is T-shaped, with a pad for your iPhone on one side and an Apple Watch spot on the other, plus a Qi-certified base for AirPods. The main charging stand is fully Qi2 certified to deliver 15 watts, and the puck can fast-charge capable Apple Watches. You can also pop your iPhone in landscape orientation if you want StandBy mode—it doesn't interfere with the Apple Watch. Belkin includes a power adapter with an attached cable.

My favorite 2-in-1 MagSafe wireless charger is perfect for charging your iPhone and AirPods (or any other wireless earbuds with wireless charging support). It has a wide, circular base with a shiny metallic post connecting the MagSafe charging pad. Ours is white, but there’s a black option too. Stick your iPhone on in landscape view, and you can enjoy StandBy mode, turning your iPhone into an alarm clock. This charger can provide the top 15-watt rate and includes a power adapter with a 5-foot cable permanently attached.

Space is at a premium when you travel, but Anker’s MagGo 3-in-1 folds away to an impressively compact form. It doesn’t scrimp on power, charging your iPhone or Qi2-certified phone at up to 15 watts on a magnetic pad that can adjust to your preferred angle. A second pad behind the main pad charges AirPods or other wireless earbuds, and there is a fold-out Apple Watch charger. You get a USB-C cable (around 5 feet) and a wall adapter in the box.

This simple MagSafe mount slots into any vent in your car and has a powerful magnet array that keeps your iPhone securely in place, even on bumpy roads. There’s a ball joint so you can angle your iPhone slightly for a better view, and it’s easy to place it on the mount and remove it one-handed. You get a 12-volt car adapter and a USB-C cable in the box. Vent mounts are unobtrusive and may help your phone keep cool.

There are many great MagSafe power banks now, but this Anker model might be my favorite. It has an ample 10,000-mAh capacity, enough for almost two full charges for most iPhones, supports Qi2 for speedy charging, and has an LED display that shows the precise percentage of remaining power. It even has a built-in kickstand for propping your iPhone in portrait or landscape orientation (handy for StandBy mode when traveling). You can also charge with the 2-foot USB-C cable supplied via the USB-C port at up to 27 watts.

Sling a MagSafe power bank in your bag, and you can attach it when you need to top up your iPhone battery. This MagSafe battery pack boosted my iPhone 14 Pro’s battery by 78 percent and took around three hours to charge. (Since wireless charging is not the most efficient method, you will never get the stated capacity of a MagSafe power bank.) You can continue using your iPhone while charging because it doesn’t add much bulk, and there’s a small fold-out kickstand for propping your iPhone in portrait or landscape orientation. Just ensure you get the newer (A1614) version, as it has the USB-C port on the side and can turn off if you want to use it as a stand. Read our Best MagSafe Power Banks guide for more options.

Combining functionality is a great way to save desk space, and this headphone stand cleverly doubles as a MagSafe charger. There’s a stainless steel arm with a rubber section to rest your cans and a MagSafe charging spot on the base. There’s also a USB-C port that you can use to top up your headphones or other devices. While you get a USB-C cable in the box, you'll need to use your own 20-watt wall charger. This is far from the speediest charger, but it looks cool and is great for any desk workstation.

Having a place to dump your keys, jewelry, watch, and charge your phone and earbuds can help you get out faster in the morning. This classy and roomy tray from Courant has a MagSafe spot for your iPhone, a secondary charging spot for your earbuds, and space for all your other daily essentials. I tried the black linen version, but you can opt for lighter shades or a leather finish (though it’s more expensive). The wireless charging is slow, but there is a spare USB-C port. There's also a bright, unnecessary LED on the back of this charger that I had to cover when using this on my nightstand.

It looks classy and neat, but the linen version picks up dust easily. WIRED reviews editor Julian Chokkattu has the Leather-Saddle model—he says it doesn't show dust easily and looks great after more than a year of use.

This family charging station boasts four MagSafe charging spots across two tiers. Each can charge your iPhone at up to 15 watts. It comes in black or white, the solid construction feels durable, and it stays in place securely. It works with MagSafe iPhones but is also Qi2-certified and can charge any Qi-supporting phone or device, including earbud cases. Setting up a charging station like this in the kitchen or hallway is a great way to keep those phones out of the bedroom at night. Included is a thick barrel port cable and a chunky 65-watt power supply.

It looks simple, but this Qi2-certified charging stand has a neat trick we haven’t seen before: The pad can rotate through 360 degrees. Want to switch from portrait to landscape orientation? You can simply spin your iPhone. It moves easily with a satisfying sound that makes me think of a safe dial. The pad holds your iPhone securely and sits on a ball joint, so you can tip it back to lay an AirPods charging case flat on top.

Not everyone needs a face-tracking stand for their iPhone, but Belkin’s Auto-Tracking Stand Pro (8/10, WIRED Review) is terrific for content creators. Pair your iPhone (it's only made for iPhones, since it relies on Apple’s DockKit technology), pop it on the MagSafe pad, and open the camera app to have the dock track your face, keeping you in the frame as you move around. It tracks effectively and quietly, turning through 360 degrees and tilting up or down through 90 degrees. You can outrun it if you try, but at a regular walking pace, it keeps up. It works with FaceTime and several third-party apps, including TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and WhatsApp. The battery inside can go for up to five hours, and there’s a standard 1/4-inch thread on the bottom for attaching a tripod.

The hinged Qi2/MagSafe charging pad can lie flat or be tilted to support StandBy mode for iPhones. The charger also has a retractable USB-C cable on the right (about 2 feet long) to charge another device, like a laptop, tablet, or earbuds. It is lightweight, so the sticky pad provided is essential to secure it on your desk or nightstand. You also get a USB-C cable with a right-angled connector in the box to plug into the power input on the left-hand side, but you need a power adapter rated at 100 watts to get the maximum charging rates.

Putting a wee robotic face on a charger may sound silly, but this pixelated visage is so cute. It even changes expression when something is charging. A hinged Qi2-certified charging pad works with iPhones in portrait or landscape orientation (handy for Standby Mode), but it can also lie flat to charge any Qi device. Tilt the pad up through 70 degrees, and you’ll find a second pad for AirPods or other wireless earbud cases to charge on. It even has a spare USB-C port for slowcharging another phone or a smartwatch. You get a 3.3-foot USB-C cable to plug into the back, but you’ll need a 30-watt power adapter (we like the Anker Nano).
