Apple MagSafe Charger

A magnetic connector called MagSafe debuted in 2006. Its essence was that there were magnets on the cable and in the connector for charging Apple laptops — you could not be afraid to accidentally touch the wire with your foot, it just pulled out, and the laptop remained in place. In its modern form, MagSafe charging was reintroduced in 2020, henceforth it works wirelessly and is intended for the iPhone.

The new version of the Apple MagSafe Charger is designed for use with smartphones of the iPhone 12 generation. There is a special insert in their case that contains a magnetic circle and a charging coil. The charger is automatically centered on the magnetic platform on the back of the smartphone. The built-in NFC chip helps to recognize MagSafe in it.

Fast Wireless Charging

The maximum power in wireless charging mode when using a 20-watt adapter is 15 watts. With an 18W block, the magnetic charger delivers 13W. In terms of the speed of replenishment of energy reserves in the battery tanks of a smartphone, MagSafe loses to classic wired charging by about two times. However, for the case of the same nightly bedside charging, this is completely unimportant.

Qi standard

Apple MagSafe Charger wireless charging uses Qi technology. This means that the device is suitable for charging any other compatible gadgets, but at lower power parameters. For example, the iPhone 11 is charged with its help in 4-5 hours. Apple Watch owners can recommend the version of magnetic charging for two slots — MagSafe Duo Charger.
