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 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 $25: 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.

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 can also charge 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.
