What to Consider

Compatibility

Save for the entry-level iPhone SE, every new Apple smartphone from the iPhone 12 onwards is MagSafe-ready. This means that you can charge, mount, or use additional snap-on accessories with them, even without a case. MagSafe-compatible cases are widely available for any iPhone that has the feature, so finding one is easy.

Charging Capacity

Whether you are shopping for a desktop or car charger or a portable battery pack, look for products with a maximum charging output of 15 watts. This ensures that you can charge any iPhone reliably and at full speed.

Thankfully, Qi2 — the new wireless charging protocol that arrived alongside the iPhone 15 family allows even battery packs to rapidly charge the latest Apple smartphones. We highly recommend that you keep an eye out for Qi2 support while navigating the MagSafe charger marketplace because it gets you reliable performance for years.

How We Selected

I’ve been testing MagSafe accessories since 2020, so I had hundreds of options to consider. For this guide, I selected products from leading accessory makers that have served me reliably for weeks, months, and even years since 2020. I can personally vouch for the quality and reliability of every pick on this list. These options are from brands that make high-quality products that last a while, and they’re designed with ergonomics, ease of use, style, and convenience in mind.

BoostCharge Pro 3-in-1 Wireless Charging Stand

Belkin’s BoostCharge Pro is the best MagSafe charging accessory for iPhone owners who also rock an Apple Watch and a set of AirPods (or other wireless earbuds with a wireless-charging-compatible case). It has a timeless, elegant design with a metal arm and a versatile iPhone dock with an adjustable viewing angle. The accessory can hold any compatible iPhone in landscape or portrait mode.

The latest iteration of the 3-in-1 docking station is also uncompromisingly fast and futureproof, thanks to support for the latest Qi2 wireless charging standard. Available in black or white, the product comes with a bundled charging adapter and a two-year warranty.

MagSafe Charger

Since its launch in 2020, the original Apple MagSafe charger has proven its worth with a long track record of excellence and five-star ratings. Its sleek and compact design is matched by its rapid charging capabilities, making it a reliable choice for any compatible iPhone. The same goes for its reasonable price.

Another reason I can’t recommend the Apple MagSafe charger enough is the incredible selection of accessories available for it. From reasonably priced flat or vertical stands to luxurious docks that are a fusion of metal, wood, and genuine leather, there are tons of options for customizing your desk, nightstand, or side table.

MagGo Power Bank

The Qi2-equipped MagGo power bank by Anker is the best MagSafe battery pack worth your attention, offering fast charging speeds, ample battery capacity, and the added convenience of a built-in viewing stand.

The last-mentioned bit works in portrait and landscape mode, so it’s equally great for scrolling through social media during lunch breaks and watching videos or gaming with an external controller. What’s more, the nifty gadget has a color display for keeping tabs on its charging speed and battery capacity.

Thanks to a 10,000 mAh battery pack, the Anker MagGo can fully charge any iPhone with plenty of power to spare for other essential gadgets. You can order the product in several colors. A cheaper version with a lower-capacity battery and no display is also available.

Magnetic Phone Ring Stand

A MagSafe grip is a must-have for everyone who’s constantly glued to their iPhone. These accessories are particularly handy for big-screen Plus and Max iPhones because they make them easier to use with one hand while on the go.

This Urban Armor Gear offering is our top pick in this product category because of its sleek all-metal design, robust built-in magnets, and unrivaled versatility.

Unlike its competitors, the UAG grip can double as a viewing stand in landscape and portrait mode, with the latter being particularly noteworthy. You can order the cover in black with or without silver accents and titanium.

Qi2 snap+ Magnetic Wireless Charging Vent Mount

The mophie Snap+ charging vent mount is undeniably the best MagSafe car charger out there. The accessory offers fast charging speeds via support for the Qi2 standard, adjustable viewing angles, and an easy installation—all at an incredibly agreeable price. Unlike most competitors, the Snap+ comes bundled with a speedy car adapter and adhesive cable management clips, so it’s as value-packed as it can be.

We like that the mount attaches to the car’s air vent via a sole hook with adjustable length. Its base has cutouts to allow the air from the vents to flow.

Slim Mobile Wallet

This MagSafe wallet by Peak Design is a favorite of ours for its stylish looks, durable and eco-friendly fabric build, and ample storage capacity. The accessory can fit up to seven cards, so it's among the few MagSafe wallets that can reliably replace a traditional card holder.

The slim mobile wallet has a convenient card cover that doubles as a pull tab. And there are several colors to choose from. Of course, Peak Design also offers iPhone cases that perfectly match the wallet.

2-in-1 Foldable Qi2 Wireless Charging Stand

This all-new Qi2 wireless charging stand by Satechi is the best for iPhone users who don’t have an Apple Watch or prefer to power it up separately.

The accessory features a magnetic iPhone dock with highly adjustable angles and a pad for charging AirPods or other wireless earbuds in its base. Crafted using high-quality aluminum and vegan leather, it is a perfect match for most Apple gadgets, not just the iPhone.

Because it can fold flat, the Satechi MagSafe charging stand is not only great for home and office use but also an excellent travel accessory. A slightly pricier version of the device with a retractable Apple Watch stand is also available.

3-in-1 Travel Charger with MagSafe

This 3-in-1 MagSafe charger by mophie—a brand that’s synonymous with iPhone backup power for many years—is the best for frequent travelers. The accessory consists of a high-speed MagSafe charging dock, an Apple Watch charger that can switch between flat and nightstand mode, and an additional Qi pad for powering up AirPods or other wireless earbuds.

When not in use, the charger folds neatly into a compact square with a stylish fabric exterior. We like that it comes bundled with a USB-C cable, an adapter, and a recycled fabric pouch for keeping everything in place.

iPhone Camera Mount with MagSafe

The Belkin MagSafe camera mount is tailor-made for using the cutting-edge camera of your iPhone as a high-performance webcam on your MacBook via Continuity in macOS. The affordable accessory has a foldable mount for placing it on the top edge of Apple’s notebooks.

When you don’t need to use your iPhone as a webcam, the Belkin mount can double as a reliable MagSafe grip and landscape viewing stand. You can order it in black or white.
