So this is the Anker MagGo Wireless charging station… its a part of Ankers new wireless charger line up which they debuted at CES 2024. Now the Anker MagGo Wireless chargning station is super convenient for traveling, its great for at home use, and thanks to Qi2, this wireless charger can charge your phone with 15 watts of power which is doubly as fast as your older wireless chargers which are putting out 7.5 watts at best. And you can charge your AirPods and apple watch at the same time too.

So today we’re going to checkout the Anker MagGo wireless charging station. But first I do want to thank Anker for sponsoring this video. Now the Anker MagGo Wireless Charging station has a retail price of $109.99, and if you want to pick this charger up, it’ll be linked down below.

Now first lets about what comes included in the box. Obviously you get the charging station it self, you also get a 5 foot USB C to USB C cable, which I personally appreciate cause it makes it easier to wire this charging station into your desk set up… and you also get a 40 watt wall adaptor.

Now, I do want to emphasize just how small this charging station is, when its fully collapsed it has the footprint of a trading card, and its about 2 iPhones thick. This thing is smaller than an apple magic mouse, so traveling with this charger is super easy cause it can slip into almost any pocket in your backpack, and when its not collapsed its can charge your phone, AirPods and apple watch all at the same time.

But also, there are two minor details that I want to point out about this charger as well, build quality wise this charger feels very premium, the plastic surfaces have a nice slate feel to them, and the pad on which your AirPods charge on has a soft touch feel to it, so you don’t have to worry about your AirPods sliding off of the charging pad. But also, even if you’re not going to charge your phone, earbuds or watch… I really just like using this charging station as a stand to just watch videos with on your phone.

Since the MagGo charger is MagSafe compatible, yeah you can charge your iPhone… but also, thanks to the strong magnets you can either set your iPhone in a vertical position, or you can set it to a horizontal position. And thanks to the adjustable hinge, you can actually adjust the angle of your iPhone to your liking. And the station it self has some rubber feet on the bottom so you don’t have to worry about it sliding around.

But like I just said, the MagGo wireless charger is MagSafe compatible. So besides having the built in magnets that allows your iPhone to attach to this charger, this charger will actually charge your iPhone with 15 watts speeds, which is just as fast as apple’s original MagSafe charger, and its twice as fast as your older original Qi wireless chargers which charge at 7.5 watt speeds. And when it comes to charging your AirPods and Apple Watch, they’re going to charge at your standard 5 watt speeds.

And since the MagGo charger is also apple watch certified, a 30 minute charge is going to get your Apple Watch series 9 up to 47% battery, which should be enough to get you through the whole day.

But in general, I feel that the Anker MagGo Charging station is great for travel and or at home use. Its great for traveling cause in this very compact package you are going to be able to charge your iPhone, AirPods and apple watch at the same time, and you also only need one power outlet to worry about, which is a big detail that I feel many people forget. And this just means less stuff that you have to travel with. Also since this charging station comes included with a 5 foot long cable, wiring this station into your desk is very easy. And if you do decided to use this station at your desk, thanks to MagSafe you’ll be able to easily see your phone at all times, or you can flip it over to horizontal watch videos. And even if you don’t plan on always charging your stuff, I find that this station works great as a simple stand for your phone that you can use around the house.
