A Nifty Charging Solution for Your Devices: The MagGo Magnetic Charging Station
Multiple Device Power Solution Discovered: A Charger Capable of Simultaneously Charging Up to Eight Devices, Minimizing Cord Chaos
Charging your gadgets might seem like a routine task, but it can instill anxiety: what if your power brick accidentally comes loose, and your laptop suddenly loses power without you saving that vital document? Or perhaps you've inadvertently let your phone's battery plummet to 10% just before venturing out for a day-long escapade without any available outlets?
Thankfully, trustworthy charging brand Anker has a brilliant little device to alleviate these concerns: The MagGo Magnetic Charging Station.
Even if you rarely fret about your batteries, there's a chance you might be charging them wrong. Overusing chargers with too much power can lead to overheating, which is detrimental to your device's battery longevity (HuffPost Reporting).
First off, let's discuss aesthetics. The MagGo boasts a sleek, almost futuristic appearance that exudes modern minimalism. A definite improvement over your standard power strip and tangled mess of cables, the MagGo's circular shape and thoughtfully placed charging stations (a MagSafe charger up front, additional ports and outlets at the back) make it less obtrusive. It's available in black or white and measures a mere 4.33 inches in diameter, a joy to display.
Aside from its good looks, the MagGo is great at preserving battery health.
The device, crafted with eight power stations, can accommodate a multitude of devices: two USB ports, two USB-C ports, and three three-pronged outlets on the back handle anything with a cord, while the ultra-strong MagSafe charger up front is reserved exclusively for your phone.
It's essential to keep a few things in mind regarding your phone: although the rear ports can cater to various devices, the MagSafe charger is only compatible with iPhones that support magnetic charging (models 12 and above), and it functions optimally only with updated operating systems of at least iOS 17.2. A MagSafe-compatible phone case or one no more than 2.5mm thick is also necessary.
If your iPhone fits the bill, this purchase should be a no-brainer. Even if you're not an iPhone user, this visually pleasing powerhouse is still worth considering for all your other devices. But if you're still hesitant, the following testimonials from satisfied customers should do the trick.
"I bought this to use with my iPhone 15 Pro on my Nightstand. I prefer my Phone as my alarm clock (like most people), and I LOVE the standby feature on the iPhone. This charging station allows me to place my phone in any orientation, as well as providing me an outlet for my lamp and my CPAP. I also use the USB ports to charge my FitBit. I was able to eliminate a lot of clutter and a traditional power strip under the bed. I've also taken it with me on a trip, which eliminated the need for me to pack a power strip and USB charging block." -Marcus.L.M
"To start off - I love the Anker brand. Their products tend to be really well made, head and tails above their competitors. [...] The magsafe attachment on front is great, very strong and Qi2 really does charge quickly. It also stays cooler than I expected while charging." -IggyBlue
"This is a great wireless phone charger for your nightstand. Multiple additional USB ports on the back of it. A good weight and a thick cord. Was a great purchase." -TeeBird
"Fantastic desktop charger. I have two of these now. One on my nightstand and one on my home office desk. They have made a huge impact to the cable clutter on both. There is enough power available to charge almost anything we have. Only my bigger work laptop can't 100% be charged if other ports are in use. But overnight charging works fine for it. But I for sure can charge 2 phones, my watch, and my iPad at the same time with no issues." -Michael C
"Useful and convenient desktop accessory. I decided to set this thing up on my desk for the sake of decluttering my work space. Where it sits on my desk leaves it convenient for charging my phone and out of the way of other screens on my desk. I will say that it can be a bit front heavy when placing your phone on the wireless pad. However when you hook up a couple things to the back of its ports it evens out. The product is also very nice looking, Has a matte finish on it. Small enough to pack a lot of output power for my monitors and console under my desk!" -Joji
Get it from Amazon for $69.99 (available in two colors).
