The Belkin BoostCharge Pro 3-in-1 Magnetic Wireless Charging Stand with Qi2 offers 15W charging for iPhone and other Qi2-enabled handsets, fast charging for Apple Watch, and optimal charging for AirPods, too.
This third version of Belkin’s charging stand launched Tuesday.
New Belkin charging stand is one of the first with Qi2
For those who are unfamiliar with it, Qi2 is heavily based on the MagSafe system that Apple developed, including building magnets into both the phone and the charging mat.
It’s expected to unite wireless charging for iPhone and Android, but Samsung skipping it in the Galaxy S24 dealt these hopes a serious blow. Still, iOS handsets going back to iPhone 13 support Qi2.
And accessory makers are going ahead with products that use the new standard. Hence Tuesday’s release of the Belkin BoostCharge Pro 3-in-1 Magnetic Wireless Charging Stand with Qi2.

The T-shaped stand has two elevated charging mats. One is for an iPhone or Android and can supply up to 15W, as noted. Users can adjust the angle of the phone for optimal viewing while watching videos, reading texts or video chatting.
Next to this is an elevated mat for fast charging Apple Watch Series 7 and later, plus both Apple Watch Ultra versions. On the base is a mat that can send 5W to AirPods or other device.
The accessory is made with a minimum 75% post-consumer recycled (PCR) materials.
