It offers maximum fast iPhone and Apple Watch wireless charging with the ability to detach the iPhone charger as a power bank and the Watch charger to slot into any USB-C port.
The whole package is portable and even comes with a soft but stiff felt carry case, mini USB-C wall charger, and cable. But the most impressive feature is magnetic MagSafe wireless charging support (iPhone 12 and later), thanks to a removable 5,000mAh battery pack. There are smaller and higher-capacity alternatives, but the Matrix Ultimate is one of the few that charges three Apple devices while delivering a full 15W to an iPhone.
The Matrix Ultimate power bank can connect with the detachable Apple Watch charger for wearable repowering on the go.
MODULAR THREE-PIECE DESIGN
Alogic has a range of modular MagSafe charging products in its Matrix range. Each can be connected to others, with detachable portability being one of the benefits.
The Matrix Ultimate could be used on a desk or bedside table charging stand, and is attractive enough to sit anywhere in the house or office. It comes into its own, however, as a portable solution. As a stand, it raises the magnetically clamped iPhone, which can be set in either portrait or landscape orientations-perfect for iOS 17's StandBy mode.
When you are away from your desk, the Matrix Ultimate has a 5000mAh battery to fill up your devices without power. It's a good size-there are bigger magnetic power banks out there, but they're bulkier and heavier, and we've yet to see one that charges at MagSafe's full 15W potential (though Qi2 [fave.co/3PyXYqp] could change that).
