What is Apple MagSafe charger? [News]

Apple Magsafe charger

The Apple MagSafe charger is the newest addition in the wireless charging technology designed by apple. The charger works on magnetic alignment technology and charges the new iPhone 12 & pro models at a whopping power of 15 W.

This Qi-certified device is capable of charging iPhone 8, and later Qi-enabled versions and the AirPods too! However, the magnetic alignment technology works only with the latest iPhone 12 & pro models.

Apple does not supply an adapter with the MagSafe charger. That is an investment you will need to make separately. While it is a little frustrating to have to invest in an adapter separately, let us look at this recommended adapter option provided by Apple.

The 20 W USB C type power adapter by Apple is a high recommendation for all fast charging purposes of an iPhone user.

What is unique about the adapter is that it finds its use for both wired & wireless charging, which means that

  • the MagSafe charger is compatible with the 20W USB C power adapter supplied separately by Apple. The adapter, when combined with the MagSafe charger produces an output power of 15W enabling fast wireless charging.
  • The same 20 W adapter, can be combined with the Apple USB C lightening cable provided with any iPhone to enable fast wired charging.

What is the power output of Mag Safe compared to another wireless charger?

The new and improved MagSafe charger does provide an output power of 15 W, but we must take a look at how big of a leap that is in the wireless charging market.

Most third-party wireless chargers will charge your iPhone on a 7.5W power output. The new MagSafe charger by apple is capable of producing twice as much power than the older Qi enables chargers. Which means you can charge your iPhone twice as fast with the new MagSafe charger

What gives the new MagSafe charger an edge over its competitors is the fast charging 15W coil, combined with the Magnetic alignment technology compatible with the iPhone 12 models.

Compatibility with Other iPhones

The MagSafe charger for iPhone is compatible with all Qi-enabled devices. Which means it is capable of charging iPhone 8 and later iPhone models. However, the magnetic alignment technology only works with the new iPhone 12 & 12 pro models.

The iPhone 12 & 12 pro models have an inbuilt magnet that helps the MagSafe charger fix in the right place every time without causing any loss of power. One can also use the MagSafe charger to charge their Air pods & other Qi phones and gadgets. The performance of the MagSafe charger with non-Apple devices will vary, but you can be sure that the MagSafe charger will safely charge any Qi-enabled device.   

Advantages of MagSafe over Wireless charger

There are a few details about the MagSafe Charger that give it an edge over existing wireless technology currently used to charge iPhones. If you are thinking of investing in a wireless charger here are a few advantages of the MagSafe over other wireless chargers.

Fast Charge

The MagSafe charger is much faster than any other Qi-enabled charger. Having a 15 W power out makes the MagSafe charger one of the fastest wireless chargers in the world.

Efficient Magnetic Alignment

The fact that it combines with the new and improved magnetic alignment technology by Apple reduces the amount of power loss to a large extent which makes the charging experience energy efficient.

Case Friendly

A lot of Qi-enabled devices require you to take off your phone cover to ensure proper wireless charging. Still, Apple has designed a wide range of covers for the new iPhone 12 & pro models that work perfectly in combination with the MagSafe charger. Now you can charge your iPhone without having to take off your phone cover and risking damage to your precious device.

Ease of Usage

A lot of wireless chargers in the market are ‘contact-based’. Which means during a wireless charge session, as soon as you pick up your phone to take a call or react to a notification, it will stop charging your phone. It decreases the efficiency of your wireless charge session and affects the battery life of your cellphone adversely.

The Apple MagSafe Charger is small, puck-sized & magnetic which means the charger won’t ever leave your device even if you pick it up! During a wireless charge session with your new MagSafe charger, you can easily use your iPhone 12, take calls & watch videos without interrupting the wireless charge even for a second.

Multiple Device Compatibility

If you are an iPhone user, the chances are that you own more devices manufactured by Apple or at least an Airpod. The MagSafe charger is capable of charging all Qi-enabled devices like the Airpod. It can also find use to charge non iOs devices

Expected future usage of MagSafe

MagSafe is the first Qi-enabled charger that Apple has designed. The fact that it is highly compatible with the new iPhone 12 means that they most probably will keep improving on it with every generation.

In the future, Apple MagSafe chargers are bound to get faster and more efficient. It would be exciting to see what Apple does in the wireless innovation market, as some of the other brands are already testing and marketing wireless charger with higher charging capacity

Apple is all about minimalism. Remember when they dropped the headphone jack from their iPhone? It wouldn’t be surprising if Apple would totally shift their charging to Qi enables chargers in a few years.

It would be fantastic if Apple went on to drop the cable from MagSafe just like they did with their earphones to give rise to Airpods. Apple has the innovation capability to visualize MagSafe chargers are wireless charging banks that you can roam around with without having to sit in one place.

Suppose you are someone who is attracted to the innovation & simplicity of Apple and plan on investing in more than one Apple device. In that case, MagSafe charger can be a neat investment which is capable of charging multiple devices.

Apple has pioneered the magnetic charging sector with its extremely efficient laptop chargers. The same magnetic technology is now being imbibed by leading laptop brands in their premium products! The future of MagSafe for phones looks exceptionally bright, and it is going to be interesting to watch what Apple does with it in the coming years.
