Nomad Stand One Gets Qi2 Update With 25W iPhone Charging

[MacRumors]

Nomad today updated its popular Stand One and Stand One Max chargers to add Qi2 support. Qi2 allows compatible iPhones to charge at up to 25W, matching the 25W charging speed of Apple's newest MagSafe chargers.

The $119 Stand One can charge an iPhone at up to 25W using the iPhone charging surface, and it can also charge the AirPods at the base of the device. It comes with a USB-C to USB-C cable, but you'll need to supply your own 40W+ power adapter.

The $159 Stand One Max has a design similar to the Stand One, but it also includes an Apple Watch charging puck. It can charge an iPhone, AirPods, and Apple Watch at the same time. As with the Stand One, a USB-C cable is included, but a power adapter is not.

Both chargers are available in either silver or carbide, and they support charging an iPhone in portrait or landscape orientation. In landscape mode, StandBy is supported.

The Qi2 Stand One and Stand One Max are available from the Nomad website as of today.

I have two Nomad chargers and two much cheaper Meifigno(?) chargers.
The Nomad is obviously better quality - much heftier, with better materials
But the Meifigno do exactly the same job, have an extra spot on the stand to charge my airpods, and came with a charger.
Much as I'd like these new Nomad options I just can't justify them at the price they're asking.

Nice. Ordered. I really like their stands, I have a much older no magnets stand from them. I really wanted the previous version of this one, but it really needed the airpods charger on the back.

I bought this when I got my iPhone 15 Pro Max.

I don't need faster charging.

Does anyone know if there is any difference whatsoever between Qi 2.2 and 25W MagSafe?

Does anyone know if there is any difference whatsoever between Qi 2.2 and 25W MagSafe?

They're functionally the same. I believe certified MagSafe stuff gets the cute little animation though.

Or at a fraction of the price, get this new 3-in-1 Belkin charger that was just released at Costco-

And as much as I hate TikTok, they have some pretty good Belkin deals on there from time to time.

Great to see somebody else shipping products without a charger. Nothing these days with USBC should ship with a charger and most of them could do without cables as well.

Where can we download this software update to upgrade the charge rate to 25W?

Seems like a decent product. But like most of Nomad (i'd had 3 different products from them), expensive. My favorite magsafe all-in-one? Anker Y1811. A little, compact cube that unfolds to charge magsafe iphone, airpods and an apple watch. I have two. around $80 at the warehouse store.
