REVIEW – If you’re the owner of a smartphone, Apple Watch and wireless headphones, you’ve probably got a jumble of charging cables or wireless pads on your nightstand or desktop.

Design and features

Overheat protection: Contains sensors that will temporarily stop charging in case of overheating, and resume once cooled down.

Overcharge protection: Power shuts off once the device is full, and ramps up when the battery is low.

Foreign object detection: When objects such as keys or coins are detected, the power shuts off and an LED blinks to alert you.

Setup

Just plugin and go! You’ll notice the rubbery surface has already attracted lint.

The Apple Watch is held via magnets on the circular charging pad.

If you look closely, the AirPod Pro case shows the glowing LED, indicating a charge while on the left side pad.

If you look closely, a very small LED in mounted on the left side of each Qi wireless pad. Here’s a photo taken in the dark.

Yes, the left side pad can also charge a phone. I actually lay mine down this way at night because it’s close to my bedside so I can reach it for the alarm clock.

Performance

After setting things up put it to work for three weeks. No cooling fan noises, no buzzing, it just works. It’s rock solid.

The entire surface is coated with some slightly grippy texture, and since the sample I received is white, all the dark colored lint really shows. I suppose if I got the black one, I’d have the opposite problem with light colored dust.

It just so happens the charging LEDs face my bed, so I stuck on a tiny bit of tape over the light to tone it down just a little.

What I like

  • Very clean design.
  • Charge two Qi-compatible devices at the same time.
  • The dock has a little weight so you can’t just knock it around too easily.

What I’d change

  • The power cord only exits the back in one direction. It would be nice to have a way to re-route the cord in a tight spot.

Final thoughts

I really like this dock- it’s well thought out, slick looking, and charges everything I have. No more snake of charging cables! It’s priced on the higher side, but you won’t need another wireless charging dock.
