An improved version of the Belkin BoostCharge Pro 3-in-1 Wireless Charging Stand supports fast charging Apple Watch Series 7 – up to 33% faster than Series 6.

And the stand still charges MagSafe iPhones at up to 15 watts. And it provides 5 watts to AirPods wireless charging cases.

Belkin’s 3-in-1 Wireless Charging Stand gets on the Apple Watch Series 7 bandwagon

A highlight of Apple Watch Series 7 is faster charging. Apple claims it takes just 45 minutes to take the battery from zero to 80% charge. But it requires a compatible charger. The revamped BoostCharge Pro stand is one such charger.

It’s not surprising Belkin should be one of the few accessory makers to add this feature. The original version of the 3-in-1 charging stand was one of the very first third-party accessories to fully support MagSafe iPhones. Not only does the handset cling magnetically to the elevated charging mat, an iPhone 13 series or iPhone 12 series charges at maximum wireless speed: 15W.

Place an AirPods wireless charging case on the base of the stand and it’ll juice up at its max speed.

The full, official name of this product is (deep breath) Boost↑Charge Pro 3-in-1 Wireless Charger with MagSafe 15W. Belkin is taking preorders for the updated version now, in either back or white. The price is $149.99.

If you want something flatter, Belkin also offers the BoostCharge Pro 3-in-1 Wireless Charging Pad. It provides faster Apple Watch Series 7 charges, too.
