Long-time Mac users will be familiar with the name MagSafe. However, it means something entirely different now. Apple revived the MagSafe name last year when it unveiled its new iPhones. One major problem with wireless charging is efficiency. Specifically, the device needs to be in a sweet spot to charge at maximum efficiency. Apple is solving this with MagSafe, a technology that uses magnets to ensure the device always stays in the charger’s sweet spot so that it gets a steady, consistent, and efficient connection for wireless charging.
And so, the new iPhone 12 series of phones feature a ring of magnets in their backs. When you use a MagSafe charger, it attaches securely and precisely to the backs of these new iPhones, thereby ensuring a perfect connection and maximum charging efficiency. It’s a clever way of improving wireless charging. And one of the accessories that Apple showed during the announcement of MagSafe was this: the Belkin Boost Charge Pro 3-in-1 Wireless Charger with MagSafe. It’s a mouthful, so let’s just call it the 3-in-1 MagSafe charger alright?
