You have to remember to bring that MagSafe charge cable with you, and in that sense it's like every specialized wearable tech charger I've seen for the last decade. It seems to drift to rooms I'm not in, and other rooms don't have the charger because, well, those other rooms have Lightning, or USB-C, or Qi chargers. It makes charging the iPhone a no-brainer, as long as I have the charge cable nearby. It pops on easily, the watch makes a little chime and I see the charge status. The Apple Watch has a snap-on proprietary magnetic charger too, and it works similarly. And that should have been my first hint that I'd appreciate the idea. But it feels very much like a giant Apple Watch charger for the iPhone. The charger costs an extra $39, and doesn't come with a charge adapter, so you also need one of those (any USB-C one will work, but here are some good charger adapter suggestions). I got to try out an iPhone 12 Pro and MagSafe charger, and after only a day or two, it had already won me over. Strong magnets, and works with supported cases.

Instead, Apple doubled down on its proprietary charge options. I wanted a normal nonproprietary charger. I didn't love the idea of MagSafe when Apple first announced it for the iPhone 12, because all I wanted was USB-C. It auto-attached and easily popped off so that tripping over a wire wouldn't knock your laptop off a table. Make sure you buy enough heads.The iPhone 12 (and iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12 Mini and iPhone 12 Pro Max) has a new magnetic charger system called MagSafe (and the first-gen MagSafe accessories are officially available for purchase.) It's a familiar name because MagSafe used to be on all the MacBooks, once upon a time. My guess is they were selling knockoff versions of Volta, with the classic way too to be true marketing ads on Facebook.Ĥ point a billion nines out of 5. I once saw an ad for a company called Beast Charging cables but last time I looked up their competing product, turns out they went bankrupt. I will have to experiment with cutting the soft rubber ribbing off, then the tape should last and my eyes will be saved!Īll in all, still the absolute best magnetic charging cable on the market. its ribbed sothe tape can't make a solid connection so the light always leaks out before the tape always inevitably falls off. The worst part is with the right angle charging cable.
It wastes power, its ugly, annoying and just not needed outside of 0.0000000000001% use cases, that 1 use case being used in a car. I've resorted to taping over the small blue indicator light, as it annoys me to no end. It's supposed to be good for your car but I've found that's literally the only place it's good.
These work like a dream, the magnet is strong the cables feel and surprisingly look like quality, just some minor problems I have with em.
