Mophie’s latest wireless chargers let you charge all your Apple devices at once

The dream of Apple’s AirPower has been dead for a while now, but plenty of third-party companies are working on offering their own multi-device wireless chargers for Apple products. Mophie is the latest company to allow users to charge all their Apple devices at once, thanks to the new dual wireless charging pad and 3-in-1 charging pad.

Both of the products are aimed at offering a relatively sleek design, and can deliver up to 7.5 watts of power to any Qi-enabled device — including the iPhone and AirPods. Like any other wireless charging pads, they’re pretty easy to use — just put your device down on the charging pad, and it should start charging.

The Apple Watch is the most difficult device to deal with here, as it doesn’t actually use Qi as its wireless charging standard. It instead uses Apple’s own Magnetic Charging standard. As such, you can’t charge your Apple Watch with the dual wireless charging pad — though there is a USB port on the device where you can plug your Apple Watch charging cable into the device.

Alternatively, if you have an iPhone, AirPods, and/or Apple Watch, it’s worth considering the 3-in-1 charging pad instead. This charging pad does have an Apple Watch magnetic charger built right into it, along with the two Qi-enabled charging pads found on the dual charging pad. That way, you can charge all your Apple devices without having to use any external chargers.

Generally speaking, it’s likely we’ll see more and more wireless charging pads as companies like Apple continue to push the standard. Now that the iPhone supports wireless charging, the standard has become much more mainstream, and third-party accessory manufacturers will want to capitalize on that. There are plenty of wireless chargers on offer these days, and if you’re interested in checking out some of the best of them, it’s worth taking a look at our guide.

Then there’s the question of price –these devices aren’t necessarily cheap. The dual wireless charging pad comes in at $80, while the 3-in-1 wireless charging pad is available for $140. You can get both the dual charging pad and 3-in-1 charging pad straight from Mophie, or from the Apple website.

Every phone needs to copy this 50W wireless charging feature
OnePlus AirVOOC 50W charger used as a stand.

I’ve been using the OnePlus 13 for about a month and it’s fast become my favorite Android smartphone right now. Alongside excellent battery life, superfast charging, and a great camera, there’s one particular OnePlus 13 feature that I want every smartphone to copy: the 50W AirVOOC Wireless Charging.

One of the key problems with wirelessly charging your phone is the excess heat that it generates. The new AIRVOOC charging puck fixes this problem with an in-built fan that keeps the phone extremely cool to the touch, even after it’s been charging for over an hour.

Future Samsung phones may get a wireless charging upgrade we’ve waited years for
A benchmarking test running on the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra.

Samsung may be giving its future phones a wireless charging upgrade that will help charge their phones a lot faster, and it comes in the form of a new chip.

In a blog post that was published during last week, the company said the new wireless charging chip, called the S2MIW06, is a Power Management Integrated Circuit (PMIC) that will help improve wireless charging by giving Samsung phones access to up to 50W of power. The S2MIW06 chip will support both the Qi and Qi 2.2 wireless charging standards, the latter of which is set to debut later this year.

Your OnePlus 13 case comes with something odd you shouldn’t throw away
The wireless charging insert that comes with the OnePlus 13's case.

If you buy an official case for your OnePlus 13, you’ll find something unexpected in the box. It’s a sliver of flexible plastic, shaped like something you hang on a hotel room door when you don’t want the maid to come in, and although your first instinct will be to throw it away with the rest of the packaging, don’t do it.

You may end up needing it.
