Mophie Launches New Qi2 Wireless Chargers

[MacRumors]

Mophie today announced the launch of four new Qi2 wireless chargers that can charge MagSafe-compatible iPhones at up to 15W.

The $60 Powerstation Wireless Slim has an ultra-thin design that's meant to provide extra power without adding too much bulk. It has a 5,000 mAh battery and also includes a 20W USB-C power delivery port for wired charging. It's just 9mm thick, so it pairs well with the iPhone Air or any of Apple's new iPhone 17 models.

Mophie also has a version of the Slim with a built-in stand that is able to rotate 180 degrees, making it ideal for watching videos in either portrait or landscape mode. It is priced at $70, and is 11mm thick to accommodate the stand.

The $80 Powerstation Wireless has a larger 10,000 mAh capacity, but a thicker design than the slim model at 15mm. It too includes a 20W USB-C port for faster wired charging. The $90 Powerstation Wireless with Stand is 2mm thicker, coming in at 17mm, plus it supports 30W wired charging.

Mophie's new wireless chargers can be purchased from the Mophie website or from Amazon.

I still have the 2023 Snap+ Juice Pack Mini and I believe that one only charges at 7.5W so this seems to be a nice upgrade over that.

For me Anker has some better options and Anker usually go on sale especially on TikTok. I’ve seen $70 products go for $50 and less

At least it's not Anker, so it won't get recalled for a fire hazard in 3... 2... 1...

I like the slim one, I just wish they offered a version without the stand.

agreed. If anything, they should have a magsafe ring on the back. Magsafe brings a bit of modular design to phones. We take our magsafe phone grips off to attach these power banks. It only makes sense to then snap the magsafe pop socket to the back of the powerbank since it essentially "becomes" the back of the phone temporarily.

Having previously worked at the Fruit Store, I can confidently say that Mophie battery packs are a terrible value for the money and mostly appeal to rich tourists in a bind who don’t want to be bothered to wait around for a charge in the store.

I believe we're at qi2.2 now capable of 25W but good effort, mophie.

They have one without the stand too, that is MagSafe.

Nice. I guess I should have said "both sides", as obviously one side has magsafe for snapping and charging, but are you referring to both sides so that magsafe accessories can be snapped onto it while it's attached to a phone or ?

Looks like nice wireless chargers. However charging speed is less and I will not be buying one.
