Design and features
The ANNNWZZD 3-in-1 Wireless Charging Station is a sturdy piece of kit that’s just a bit smaller than my iPhone 15 Max when it’s all folded up, as shown in the picture below.
The collapsable, travel-friendly design uses a USB-C power port so that you don’t need an extra specialized cable when you’re on the road. The unit does come with a small power brick and a 36″ USB-A to USB-C power cable. I currently have the charger on my nightstand with the cable plugged into the USB port on my wall outlet.
There are lots of nice details in the sturdy build. The base includes a pair of rubber feet to keep it from slipping around on the table surface. The back panels have ventilation holes to disperse heat from charging. Al the surfaces are rubberized and/or textures where apporpriate to minimize scratching.
You’ll unfold that base, which also reveals the wireless charging pad for Apple Airpods (see the list in the tech specs above for a complete list of compatible models).
You’ll then fold out the Apple Watch pad that sits on the top of the unit…
… and here’s a side view that shows everything in place, with the unit plugged in. That little blue LED light turns on to indicate that charging is happening. This turns off if no devices are being charged.
The panels swivel independently, enabling you to set the charger plate(s) to a variety of angles if you like. Just note that you won’t be able to get your AirPods under there if you lean the face back too far.
The total footprint of the ANNNWZZD 3 in 1 Wireless Charging Station (without devices) is a space-friendly 3″ by 3″ by 5.5″ tall, with a total weight of just over 10 ounces. The included USB-A to USB-C cable is 36″ long.
Performance
The ANNNWZZD 3 in 1 Wireless Charging Station is a delightfully simple and functional charging device. The build is solid and stays well-planted on smooth surfaces like a desktop or my nightstand.
The magnets are strong enough to keep your phone from being accidentally knocked loose when you’re punching that snooze button in the morning. The magnets are also fine for the watch and AirPods, but they come loose with much less force if you roll over. I didn’t see that as a big issue in a month of sleeps, where I think I may have knocked my watch loose once or twice.
I also found this fun thing. Did you know that the iPhone has a horizontal idle mode? I did not know this. I need to brush up on my tips and tricks… no matter how you orient it, the stand and your phone are well anchored.
If there is one flaw I found in the design, it is the charging light. The light sits on the right side of the unit as shown in the pics. And it is fairly bright. Below is a nightime shot for reference, when all the devices are asleep. It doesn’t look like much, but I found it to pretty bright since I left side of the bed on my side. You’ll want to rotate the phone a bit so that the light isn’t directly in your eyes. You also can’t turn it off.
Other than that little bit, I have no complaints about the design and performance. This is going to be great for traveling. It will pack up nicely in a backpack or suitcase, and the tall narrow profile will be great for space-challenged hotel nightstands. The USB-C compatibility gives you options for packing your cables.
The only other qualifier I have about this device is that it does NOT support fast-charging, which may be a consideration depending on your needs. Also make sure you check the compatibility list to make sure it supports your gear.
What I like about ANNNWZZD 3 in 1 Wireless Charging Station
- Very stable
- Vertical position takes up less room, promotes visibility of the phone’s face
- Brainless & painless
What needs to be improved?
- The blue charging indicator light is a bit annoying if you have it set up where you sleep
Final thoughts
There’s really not much to dislike about the ANNNWZZD 3 in 1 Wireless Charging Station. It’s a simple, durable, and trouble-free solution for charging your Apple gadgets in a tight footprint that saves table space. It’s also a great addition to the travel kit. At under $30 it’s also a great value. I’ll be buying a couple more of these for the rest of the household.
