I was really hoping this would work with my existing case. It didn't. So I bought the Apple Magsafe case for my phone, and then it worked just fine. I prefer the old case more, but I really like the convenience of the Belkin stand next to my bed for my phone and watch. The charger works every time, it is heavy enough to stay in place when I grab my phone and watch, and it looks nice. Overall a great product!
My bedside is now much cleaner. Instead of three cables and three adapters I have just one. I hated having to manage all those cables, and this charges my phone much more reliably than a wireless puck. And now I have three chargers / adapters I can use elsewhere (like traveling).
I like that the watch and iPhone are elevated. They’re easier to see and put on/take off the charger. The angle is good for a bedside table, and the magsafe feature works well. When I’m laying on my side, it’s nice to be able to rotate the iPhone 90° or 180°.
Tip for buyers: The MagSafe works well, but when rotating the phone, push slightly in so it stays firmly secured. A few times I didn’t do that, my phone fell off.
Another tip: Try charging with the case off. It helps keep the phone cooler, which is good for it’s longevity.
If there were a future improvement, I would ask Belkin to increase the strength of the MagSafe slightly and allow me too change the orientation the phone sits at. I don’t know if this is possible with the current strength of magsafe though.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is well worth the cost. If you own AirPods, and iPhone with MagSafe, and an Apple Watch. Look no farther; this is the product for you.
The MagSafe charger seems to be strongest charger yet for the magnetic. The build quality matches the cost, as well.
The cable length is perfect, since it's a bit longer than the typical cord length that comes with the iPhone.
Over heats iPhone 12 Pro Max and EarPods. With every use
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
