Satechi has a new wireless charger for Qi devices, including all recent iPhone models. This includes a USB-C port and can transmit power as quickly as iOS and Android devices can receive it.
Its casing has a more modern look that previous versions from this company.
Faster wireless charging
The Satechi Aluminum Type-C Fast Wireless Charger offers up to 7.5W of power to the iPhone XS series, XR, X and 8 series. It can send up 10W to Samsung and other Android handsets.
This charger doesn’t come with a USB power adapter, but a Quick Charging (QC) or USB-C Power Delivery (PD) adapter is necessary to get the fastest charging. Just hooking it to a MacBook USB-C port won’t do it.
Satechi offers it in silver or space grey to match the phone. The price is $44.99, and the product is available now on Satechi.net.
Of course, there are tons of other Qi-compatible wireless chargers on the market. It’s reached the point where these have to offer something unusual to stand out, like the one that’s also a photo frame.
