Interesting as on twitter they still aren’t giving a release date.
guessing this will be US first though. Just got the MagSafe duo so may need to choose if this does come out next week
Yeah I said part of... we know what’s possibly coming from Apple...
-Fitness+
-AirTags
-AirPods Studio
The reply from Belkin was literally within the last 24 hours so maybe they have been given the go ahead by Apple possibly... I think the reason why it’s took this long is because Apple wanted to get their MagSafe duo out first
it has been leaked about new products coming on Tuesday so can imagine it will be a site refresh with new products... as listed above with the Belkin charger released alongside
Price is already out $149.99, I can’t see them leaving it much later than next week for release as any later is too close to Christmas and they did say winter 2020...
I don’t see Apple including a third party accessory as part of the alleged surprise next week. They jut released the Duo charger.
I don’t think this is going to be some big announcement I literally think apples site will go offline then just come back online a few hours later with new products.
Let’s be honest the MagSafe Duo and the Belkin Boost Charge Pro are different products one is a charging stand one is a portable charger.
If Apple was worried about competing products they wouldn’t have announced the boost charge pro at the same time as the MagSafe and MagSafe duo.
I don’t think the Belkin charger is going to be some sort of front page product but will be added similar to how their car mount was, just in the background with no announcement.
Their main page will focus on fitness+, possibly AirTags and possibly AirPods Studio.
What you got to remember this isn’t a leak this is actual confirmation from Belkin Support that the Belkin charger is planned to be available from next week from their own website as well as apples. This isn’t a rumour this is confirmation we have here...
Thank you OP! I've been watching this product daily and will purchase it immediately when available.
hope so, puts things into a difficult decision if the belkin one becomes available next week as I just got my MagSafe duo charger as the belkin one would be ideal as a 3 in 1. I may just keep the duo charger though for when I need a charger for on the go and maybe put this one downstairs instead.
Does anyoe know if the upcoming Boost Charge Pro 3 in 1 will come with the magsafe charging puck, or if I'd need to buy it separately?
It’s an all in one charger so the MagSafe Puck is part of it, same as the Apple Watch puck... IMO, it’s a far better deal than the MagSafe duo. As it also comes with a wall plug ?
I think this is what I am going for tbh, been looking at it for a while... was not sure whether to get the Mophie 3 in 1 but it’s not available in white now... so I think this is going to be the one for me.
The duo or standard MagSafe just seems a bit s**t for the money IMO
Interesting, in the good way, because I haven't bought a MagSafe puck yet as my existing wireless stands work fine. All my other Apple Watch stands have required me to use my existing puck, so I wasn't sure if this was the same. Thanks for your response!!

For sure, coming with a wall plug? That’s really a big deal for me. Not joking
.I can’t bear and close eyes to pay extra for charger. That sounds too stupid. Whatever environmental bs they preaching, every adult knows it

It’s a no brainer MagSafe duo and plug (£148), belkin 3 in 1 MagSafe charger (£149.99).
I want something that will MagSafe charge my 12 PM as a stand. I think I prefer this angle versus my current wireless charging stand. This one looks higher up in the air.
Anyone know if the 15W speed will remain if it's charging an AW and APP at the same time? I'm assuming no?
They only specify up to 15W wireless charging... so not 100% sure I am presuming if you only charge the phone you will get the 15W but adding AirPods/watch will likely reduce that
When it comes with a’ plug’ the question is how big is the transformer
Anything less than 18 or 20 is going to be a slow charge
BELKIN s problem in the past has been the charger that they supplied on previous docking stations is not big enough
Just found this answer from Belkin
......The Belkin BOOST CHARGE PRO 3-in-1 Wireless Charger with MagSafe includes a power supply with an output of 40W. This allows each charger to be able to supply its full power potential even if all 3 are used at the same time.
