Satechi's 3-in-1 stand does a good job of keeping its size to a minimum while still letting you power up your iPhone, wireless earbuds and Apple Watch simultaneously. Also, there doesn't seem to be support for the Apple Watch 7's faster charging standard, which may bother users who need a quick refuel before their next workout.
It's placed behind the iPhone charger, which hides the smartwatch and may make it hard to get to without removing the phone or going in over the top of the charger. I am not as much of a fan of the Apple Watch charger though. I particularly appreciated the 90 degrees of motion that the iPhone charger has, which lets you hold the phone at a specific angle (good for watching stuff while powering up), or charge non-magnetic accessories like a pair of AirPods by tilting it into its flat position.
With its silver and white finish, it'll match well with your other Apple gear, while the magnetic charging surfaces will keep your Apple Watch and iPhone secure as they power up. With USB C you had to open the machine to check, now you can see from across the room.If space on your desk is at a premium, this handsome charger from Otterbox gives you the most compact footprint we've come across for a 2-in-1 charger. I tried a 3rd party USB C- magnetic charging adapter for my 2016 MBP but it was horribly unreliable.Īside from being easier to use, having the LED on the cable to show charging status was incredibly handy. It just worked and it was a boneheaded move to remove it. is right - Magsafe was one of those brilliant Apple innovations that was beautifully simple and functional. (I assume you can use a USB C-USB C cable with the same power adapter) I actually don’t like the ease with which USB C plugs pull out I find them less secure than the old USB A plugs and have accidentally disconnected USB C cables on occasion. You can still charge via the TB4 ports, it’s just limited to 100W. Plus, the USB-C plug actually pulled out more easily in my experience than the reworked barrel-style MagSafe 1 connector. The benefit of being able to charge from either side was well worth it for me at the time. No one thinking clearly would have ever killed it.
I'd love to know who was responsible for the removal of MagSafe. I typically keep my MBPs for seven years, so only three more to go on my 2017 before I get to have MagSafe again! Wheeee!
