Belkin Portable Wireless Charger Pad with MagSafe (Fast
Belkin Portable Wireless Charger Pad with MagSafe (Fast Charging Up To 15W, Kick Stand for Flawless Compatibility with iPhone 14, iPhone 13 and iPhone 12 series, PSU not included) – Black
I’ve got a couple of these around the house now and I’ve been very impressed. When I’m not in a hurry, I always prefer to use the magsafe charger on my phone to avoid wear on the charging port. Also, using magsafe is just a more comfortable way to charge and hold your phone at the same time.
This Belkin charger is perhaps a touch thicker than I’d like which makes it less portable, but that kickstand is a great touch. It means I can rop the phone up to watch a video, or even use the kickstand to hook over my fingers as I watch TikTok in bed. It basically stops me from dropping the phone against my sad, sleepy face.
Quickly charges my iPhones and does not get hot while doing so. It gets warm a bit but nothing uncomfortable, the long cable is a boon as we no longer have to be near the socket all the time.
I have been able to verify up to 15W charging on my iPhone 12 via the built-in display of my Anker 737 Power Bank. The soft-touch plastic also seems to dissipate heat better than the official Apple puck, so it may be able to sustain the maximum wattage for longer.
The cable is high quality and significantly longer than the Apple MagSafe puck. The kickstand is perfect for Standby Mode.
If I had to nit-pick, I would like the cable to be slightly less rigid and I would love the kickstand to be redesigned to unfold to double its current length, as it will only stand a phone in a landscape orientation, but I am very pleased with this purchase.
very good charger
is better than apples beecause
.has a braided cable
.has a longer cable
.has a kickstand
.also has 15watt fast charging like apples as belkin is associated with apple
only con is that its alot thicker than apples one so if your holding your phone in your hand you can feel the thick charger.
highly reccomend
Love this magsafe charger, it’s got enough magnetic force on so there’s no way it comes off the charger and it also included a flip up stand so you can have it landscape while watching something and still have it charging etc. Perfect.
Bought to charge my new iPhone. It connects strongly and charges very well using a high capacity USB charging unit. My main reason for buying was the inclusion of the kick stand which is a nice touch and props the phone up. Overall very happy with it.
I’m really tired of buying iPhone chargers, they keep breaking no matter the quality. But this charger sticks to the back of your phone and it has a stand. I’m using it for a while and no problem whatsoever.
Really recommend it.
This charger pad is an excellent choice for anyone who is always on the go and needs a reliable way to charge their Apple devices. The MagSafe technology ensures that your device stays securely in place while charging, so you don’t have to worry about it slipping off.
The portable design of this charger makes it perfect for travel, and the compact size means it won’t take up much space in your bag. It’s also very easy to use – simply place your device on the pad and let it charge!
I appreciate the fact that this charger is wireless, so you don’t have to deal with any cords or cables. Plus, it charges quickly and efficiently, so you won’t have to wait long to get a full battery.
Overall, I highly recommend the Belkin Portable Wireless Charger Pad with MagSafe for anyone who needs a reliable and convenient way to charge their Apple devices while on the go.
But I’ve had 4-5 wireless charging pads in the same number of years, from expensive big brands to the cheapo ones made by brands named as if scrabble tiles were randomly pulled from a bag. And none of them lasted, all of them got less and less efficient, and eventually left my phone dead mid-afternoon when I really needed it to be alive, this causing me pain, hassle and annoyance much more than the slight convenience they offered.
Instead of cursing how awkward it is to find the end of the top-short-always Lightning cable, plug it into the right side of the phone, the curvy shape of the last 5 iPhones making that job ten times’ harder you had to (warning – Scottish word coming up) schuggle your phone about, camera hump off the side of the charging pad, until you squinted and saw it go green in the 12 pixels at the top of the screen showing battery. At 3am with no glasses on in the dark.
All of this is stupid but it’s how we all live, enslaved and enamoured by whatever distinctly odd, very rich white men in California decide to prioritise on their special buses taking them to special places to invent tech for us non-specialists to try and make world in a decidedly anti-special world.
This charger is great. The magnetic click when it’s roughly in the right place is like a dictator’s handshake – solid and strong and reassuring. The charging graphic pops up, the entire screen not 12 edge pixels. It always, always works. No being stuck with 1% battery at 2:30am lost and unable to use the maps to find how to get home.
This one was costly for a qi-style pad but not for an Apple-adjacent product. The little kickstand thing is useful when wasting my life watching crap on my tiny phone instead of walking 20m, pressing six buttons and sitting down in front of a 55″ OLED panel.
And I’ve had it ages and it still always works. With that click – honestly, it’s as nice as remembering the first time you scrolled a smart phone to the edges of the viewable area and it did that lovely little bounce to show you were at the limit of the space. Worth it for that alone.
I purchased this because my sister’s iPhone would no longer charge via the port but it would still work wirelessly. As she was visiting, I made sure to buy this in case she forgot to bring her own. It seems to charge at a good speed for iPhones.
I also tried it on my Pixel 7 Pro (with a mous case that has alignment for Magsafe) but it doesn’t charge at full speeds (though that’s not an advertised feature for this).
Happy enough with it, it’s on the pricier side but it is a very premium product with a solid durable cable, good kickstand and good magnets.
At home I actually plug and unplug my phone a lot, maybe 30/40 times a day- I’ll pick up my phone to do something in the kitchen, come back to lounge and put on charge etc. So I was a bit worried about wearing out the port on the phone. I’m usually a buy OEM- buy original, don’t buy 3rd party things. But it’s a fact that there are exceptions to the rule, some products are better than the manufacturer makes and we all know Apple are thievin’ stewards. This is better than the Apple one. It stands up portrait at a good angle (iphone mini 13), good magnet lock, less flimsy, good cord, overall just more solid than the Apple one. And on a deal it worked out over 10 cheaper than the Apple one. At original RRP this Belkin one was 20 more than the Apple one.
I’ve been running it solid for 2 weeks. Ok, I should give it a longer trial than that but, it’s magnets and a cable, it’s good to go. If it isn’t in a year, I’ll come back and change the review.
