MagSafe is a huge step forward in wireless charging for iPhone. But Apple’s own MagSafe Charger is somewhat boring and pretty overpriced. The Wood Charger from Limited77 is a great alternative.
It works just like a MagSafe Charger, magnetically attaching itself to the back of iPhone 12, and it charges just as quickly. It’s also much more affordable. Want to know more? Here’s our full review.

It’s 2021: You don’t have to carry a different charging cable for every device anymore. If you use multiple devices throughout the day — and who doesn’t? — odds are high that a few of them are going to get low in power. When that happens, you don’t want to juggle them on one charger or spend 15 minutes untangling three different cables.
The 3-in-1 Apple Watch, AirPods & iPhone Charger is the perfect charging cable for Apple fans who don’t want to deal with tangled cords. And right now it’s on sale in a variety of colors, each for just $14.99.

It’s hard to find a charger that’s powerful enough to truly manage powering up all your devices simultaneously. While you can find handy enough chargers that can juice up to three or four devices at once, it’s rare to find one that can truly eradicate your cable clutter.
This ScoutPro: The Ultimate All-in-One Charger doesn’t just charge one, two or even three devices — its massive 24,000mAh capacity means you can use it to charge up to five devices at once.

Our mobile devices have become essential for nearly every facet of life, and that means we use them a lot. Though the battery life on most Apple devices is impressive, there’s still a chance you’ll run out of power right when you need your iPhone or Apple Watch most. And when that’s happening, you probably don’t want to fuss with a tangle of cords that take up too much room even when you’re not using them.
The Apple MagSafe Duo Charger is a wireless charger that can power two of your devices at once, and it’s on sale for $119.99.

Just place your iPhone 12 on the Mophie Snap+ Wireless Charging Stand and the two will cling together magnetically thanks to the MagSafe system. The stand makes it easier to see the iPhone’s screen on portrait or landscape mode, and your handset is getting recharged at the same time.
I’ve used accessory on my desk for close to a week now. Here’s why I like it.

Double your iPhone 12’s battery life by attaching the Mophie Snap+ Juice Pack Mini. The two devices connect magnetically with Apple’s MagSafe system, and power flows wirelessly. It’s really simple.
I took the 5000 mAh power bank on a recent holiday to truly put it to the test. It came though with flying colors. And it costs far, far less than Apple’s similar MagSafe Power Bank.
The Mophie 3-in-1 stand for MagSafe Charger can juice up your iPhone 12, Apple Watch and AirPods.
You can charge an iPhone 12, Apple Watch and AirPods simultaneously with the just-released Mophie 3-in-1 stand for MagSafe Charger. Apple likes it so much the product is listed on the online Apple Store, an honor that doesn’t go to most accessories.
There’s no greater service you can do yourself right now than upgrading your iPhone chargers. Be it with an extra-long charging cable that means you can use your phone while plugged in from any side of the bed, or a pocket-size portable charger that will keep you fully juiced on the go, being charged at all times is a life luxury we could simply all benefit from.
Even better, we found all these great charging accessories with huge discounts. Here are eight of the best chargers, which are all on sale right now…

Anyone accustomed to the hefty MacBook power brick might want to sit down before they see the Anker Nano II 65W. This is far, far smaller than Apple’s wall charger, but can still put out 65 watts. The secret is gallium nitride.
Anker also introduced on Monday versions with 45W and 30W.

Cable clutter is the worst. It makes it difficult to organize the gadgets you rely on the most. Plus, it can take a while to individually sort out which cord you need for the device that’s low on battery. Not to mention, it doesn’t really help with creating an organized and clean desk space, which can help you stay more productive for longer periods of time.
This 3-in-1 Apple Watch & Lightning Charger Cable is a cord that can do it all. With it, you can simultaneously charge your iPhone, AirPods and Apple Watch — without struggling to find the right cord for each.
