![]() ![]() You can charge two things at once when the MagSafe Duo charger is opened. In my testing, I got sustained charging speeds of around 10W on the iPhone 12 mini and 12W on the iPhone 12 no matter which power adapter I used, so the MagSafe Duo charger obviously won’t be great for speedy fill-ups. Higher wattage adapters at or above 9V/3A will also deliver a maximum of up to 14W peak power to iPhone 12Įven if you can get the top speeds, however, it’s actually less than the 15W MagSafe charging speeds you’ll get with using the regular MagSafe charger.iPhone 12 mini can get up to 12W for faster wireless charging with at least 9V/2.62A.9V/3A and higher power adapter provides up to 14W of power.9V/2.22A power adapter provides up to 11W of power.USB-C connector (USB-A is not supported).Except if you use Apple’s older 29W USB-C charger, which the company says won’t work at all. However, if you use the same 20W charger ($19) that Apple recommends for the iPhone 12’s charging needs, you’ll only get around 11W charging, while a 29W charger ($49) will give you 14W charging. Like the iPhone, the MagSafe Duo charger comes with a Lightning-to-USB-C cable but no power adapter, so you’ll need to bring your own. I don’t know why Apple didn’t give the iPhone side the same ability to function a flip-up charger as well.ĪirPower’s promise, you need to put each device on its specific side to charge, and speeds will vary based on the charger you use. ![]() It’s slightly easier to remove than the phone side, so it’s more conducive to using on a desk or a nightstand. The watch side is a little more versatile in that you can either lay your watch flat, which might be tricky depending on which strap you have, or prop it up. The MagSafe Duo charger will prop up your Apple Watch but your iPhone needs to lay flat. Like the MagSafe charging puck, you’ll need to physically pry the charger from your phone to remove it and the floppy hinge doesn’t lend itself to propping the iPhone up like a stand. The magnets on the MagSafe Duo are quite strong, which is good for keeping your phone in place, but not so good for using it as a stationary desk charger. When closed, you can’t charge anything, which feels like a missed opportunity. You can open it to charge your iPhone (or any other Qi-enabled device) and Appel Watch, or flip it around on itself to charge one thing at a time. Despite its versatile appearance, the MagSafe Duo is actually fairly basic. ![]()
