Top Up Wirelessly With the Best Magnetic Chargers
Keeping your iPhone or Qi2 Android phone charged is effortless with the best MagSafe and Qi2 wireless chargers. These clever magnetic systems eliminate the need for cables and precise alignment. Apple’s MagSafe is integrated into the iPhone 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and SE (excluding SE 2020). A ring of magnets on the phone (and in MagSafe cases) allows secure attachment and efficient wireless charging. MagSafe is now interchangeable with Qi2, which is supported by iPhones and some Android phones like the Google Pixel 10 Pro XL (you can also pair an accessory to add magnets). Whether for your nightstand, desk, or car, these chargers make topping up convenient. This guide covers the best Qi2 and MagSafe chargers we’ve tested, updated July 2026 with the addition of a Nimble charger, removal of older devices, and updated prices.

Understanding MagSafe and Qi2
MagSafe is Apple’s accessory system integrated into iPhone 12 through 16 and SE (excluding SE 2020). Magnets on the phone (and in MagSafe cases) enable precise power transfer and accessory attachment (wallets, mounts). Qi2 is the next-generation wireless charging standard developed by Apple with the Wireless Power Consortium. It brings MagSafe-style magnetic charging, faster rates, and improved efficiency. Any device can support Qi2. The iPhone 12 and newer support Qi2. Qi2 25W is the latest update (Qi2.2) supporting up to 25 watts for compatible phones like the iPhone 16 series and Pixel 10 Pro XL.
What Is StandBy Mode?
Introduced in iOS 17, StandBy mode turns your iPhone’s screen into a dock when placed in landscape orientation on a charger. It shows the clock (with various designs), photos, or widgets. iPhones with always-on display can dim automatically in dark rooms. To customize, go to Settings > Standby. Android users can set a screensaver (digital/analog clock, Google Photos slideshow, or Google Home controls) under Settings > Display & touch > Screensaver.
How We Test MagSafe Chargers
Every Qi2 or MagSafe charger is tested for at least a week, using an iPhone 16 and an iPhone 12, plus a Pixel 10 Pro XL for Qi2 chargers. Charging rates and time are measured. Usability, magnet strength, additional charging pads/ports, and special features are evaluated. Most products are used on a nightstand or desk.
