Males noise
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had high expectations for this but unfortunately it makes a high pitch noise when any phone is on the charger. Also the phone and watch charger are too close, you can't put the phone horizontal

Fast Apple Device Qi Charging...
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Way to go Belkin. Another home run in my opinion with the Boost Up Charging Dock. You can charge your Apple Watch, iPhone (must be Qi capable) and even another item with the USB port located on the back of the Boost Up (although its only 1A) Placement of your devices on the Boost up is simple and charging starts right away, the watch charger holds your watch in place and the phone area has a little ridge to make sure your phone doesnt slide off the base. And it charges VERY fast, but the way I use it most is to place my phone and my watch on the stand when going to bed, when I wake up all is charged and ready to go. The phone does get a little hot when charging but thats the case with all Qi chargers and should not be a concern. I recommend this great all in One Apple charger.

Very nice high speed wireless charging base
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Belkin has made an excellent unit here. Attractive, solidly built, and simple to use, it does exactly what you would expect of a Qi-enabled charger for the iPhone and Apple Watch. By placing the phone upright, the Boost Up makes it easy to see what’s on your phone at a glance. I’m using the charger in my nightstand, so I can simply ask Siri for the time, temperature, or whatever, and easily see the result. The Apple Watch portion has a post to hold your watch securely in place, meaning it won’t go missing in the night. As far as the faster charging, while it is measurable, it won’t set the world on fire. Still, when you’re on a hurry to get a charge, every bit helps. Overall, a glitch-free, simple charger with an excellent user design. Highly recommended.

Great if you don’t use a protective case.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Charger works great if you don’t have a protective case on your watch. I have a Catalyst case and the watch will not charge. It positions it too high and the charger does not align.

Three in One Charging Station And More
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.iPhone: This is unique in that you can charge both your iPhone and iWatch at the same time. It is also nice that you can use your phone at any time in the upright position next to your bed. This should be at everyone’s bedside. It will come in handy in a hotel room as you travel so that you will have all your things in the same place and not forget and leave anything behind. Apple Watch: The Apple Watch charges on the dock vertical, so it works with the Nightstand mode as a clock replacement. You can even use your Apple Watch’s alarm clock feature while it charges overnight. It's actually much easier to charge the watch with this because you don't have to grab the charging cord and put the charging head on the watch. Just slip it on there at night and grab it in the morning and you are ready to go. As I mentioned before, I like that it charges on a stand so that I can still use and look at my phone while it is charging. Make sure to remove your case if it doesn’t seem to want to charge. It may be too thick. The phone case is only good up to 3mm thickness to charge or you may have a problem and wake up to a phone without a charge. Features: Wireless charging up to 7.5W for Qi-enabled device with the upright dock and at 5W for the Apple Watch and an additional USB-A port which charges a third device up to 5W (works great for AirPods or an iPad Mini). It is a bit slow for most other devices, but if you want to charge something overnight while you sleep, it’s perfect for that also. Recommendation: This device is of good quality and charges your devices fast. You may think it is a bit expensive for a charger, but when you consider it is a dock for two different Apple products and also has a third charging capability for more devices it is worth the money.

Loving it!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had been contemplating getting a wireless stand charger, especially since my old Belkin Powerhouse Stand Charger (not the updated one with the red button on the back) wouldn’t initially work with my iPhone XS Max (it oddly does work now) but I kept holding off since I heard wireless charging was a lot slower. So I was excited to try this out. Super simple to use without having to have my phone on it in a very precise spot...meaning I don’t have to move it around until it starts charging. Also love the convenience of it having the spot to charge an Apple Watch (like the powerhouse) as well as a USB port on the back to charge another device (albeit the a lower watt option there). I don’t find the charging to be slower than using the block that comes with the iPhones...it actually charges faster since it’s 7.5w versus the 5w that comes with your phone. This stand is lighter than the powerhouse and slides easier...but it’s not something that slides so much that it’s a problem. I currently use an Otterbox Strada folio case and there’s no issues with it charging through that case. I would think that would be the same for most cases but if you have a really thick one you may have an issue. Wish it could charge in landscape too but it’s definitely not a deal breaker. I have read reviews where some have mentioned hearing a buzzing noise when using this. I have heard it a couple of times but it has not been consistent so far and is more noticeable if the room is quiet and if you’re really close to it. May be something to consider if you think it will bother you. Not sure if that is a normal thing for this charger or wireless chargers in general but if it does continue I may reach out to Belkin to see if this should be happening.

Does ok
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great idea but doesn’t always charge items. You have to reposition several times to make certain they are charging.

Posted .Hi, Steine,
Placing the charging pad on a flat/even surface will help to avoid the phone from moving and disconnecting. Turning off the phone vibration might also help, as well as removing the phone case if it’s more than 3mm thick. If not, get in touch with us at [email protected] so our Support Team can provide you with recommendations. Don’t forget to include your contact information when you reach out along with a link to this post for our reference.

Does exactly what it is supposed to do
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like this wireless charging dock. It was easy to set up and my phone connected as soon as I placed it on the dock. My apple watch connected easily too. There was not much to set-up. I removed everything from the box, which was packaged nicely, attached the cord to the dock and plugged it into an outlet. I placed my phone in the middle (the way it was pictured) and it started charging. I did the same with my watch and it started charging. Very easy. My phone was at 45% and it took about 2-3 hours to charge to 100%. That wasn’t too bad. I plan to use it to charge during the night anyways. The power cord was actually longer than I expected, so that was great, but the plug in part is actually pretty big. I do really like how there is a usb connector in the back so you can charge one other device. It states that this belkin model is for the iphone, but I was able to connect my husbands Samsung galaxy s9+ and it actually started charging. He has a particular case that has a magnetic circle on the inside between the case and the phone. We had to remove that first to charge it, but either way it was possible to charge. I didn’t keep it on long, I actually just tested it out for 5 minutes and than I took it off so I could charge my Iphone.8+. I didnt take away any stars for the time it took to charge because it didnt really state that it was a lightning charging dock. It does the job, it’s easy to set-up and the power cord is pretty long. I don’t see anything bad about it. I would recommend this for sure.

Superb wireless charger
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Charges the iPhone and Apple Watch with max fast wireless charging capability, plus gives you an extra 5W USB connection for a third device. The unit is very sturdy but not too heavy. It has very nice rubber pads on the bottom to prevent slipping, and the stands for both the phone and watch chargers have a grippyness to them so that even while standing up, the devices do not shift from side to side or move off of the charging coils. Your phone sits in this nice little curved divot, and the front of it holds the phone snug against the charging stand. I’m using an iPhone XS Max and it feels snug and secure against the charging coils. The power supply is huge, as you can expect, to handle this much power current. The connection is also a proprietary, no USB-C connection or anything, so make sure you don’t lose this one. The cable tucks neatly underneath the base so there is no issue with stability when plugged in. the length of the cord is also nice and long, giving you plenty of options for placement. You can only charge your phone/watch standing up, there is no option to lay the devices flat. While I would have loved an option to lay the devices down and use it more in a pad style, I’ve had no issues charging my devices in the vertical placement design. The charger is super quiet, I’ve not heard a single sound from it after days of usage. The devices are always charged super fast, even faster it seems than some of my other “fast” wireless chargers. The charging LED is on the side of the stands, and is nice and dim, so it’s not distracting in a dark room, but from the front, you cannot tell if the charger is charging or not, as the side LED is the only indication of active charging. I’m 50/50 on this, I have another wireless fast charger that has a bright blue LED in the front, and at night I love I can see it’s charging, but hate how bright it is. So while I’d love to look directly at the Belkin and see that it’s charging, I’m also happy that there isn’t a bright LED shining at me at night. Great charger, works exceptionally well.

Posted .Hi Jg123,
Apologies for the inconvenience. We are aware of the issue and investigating a solution. During charging, the magnetic induction coils in the charging pad and stand will vibrate, causing the noise that you'll hear. We suggest moving the charging pad if possible to a location where the noise will not be as noticeable. For more assistance, please send us an email at [email protected] with your contact details and the link to this review as reference.

Too light weight and cheap feeling
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This seemed like a great idea. I loved how it put the phone at an angle Sinai could easily see it from my night stand and put my Apple Watch into night stand mode as a clock. However, it feels cheap and it very light weight and I kept knocking it over so ended up returning.

Love Belkin
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love Belkin products and this did not disappoint. The charger that this one replaced was also Belkin (just not wireless). I was a little worried about the wireless charging working with my phone because I have a slim wallet case on my phone that holds two credit cards. I really didn't want to have to take my case off...it kind of defeats the usefulness of wireless charging if you have to do that. At first, I wasn't sure it was going to work. On the back of my case, I also have a metal disk that allows me to put my phone on a magnetic stand in the car. That's a LOT to go through to charge the phone. I did find that the metal disk interfered with the charging, but I was able to just slide the back of the case open (as you would to remove a card), and then place it on the charger. It worked perfectly then! I like that my phone stays upright when charging so that I can still see the display at night. It also charges my Apple Watch perfectly. Just lay the watch on the stand and it attaches and starts charging immediately. The one thing I preferred with my old Belkin charger is that the watch was also upright (like the phone) when charging instead of being laid on its side. But not a big deal and still a 5 star product. If this thing works through my wallet case and two credit cards, you can bet it will work with almost any case. Convenient, sleek design, quality product!

It couldn't be easier
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a wireless charging dock for selected iPhones and all Apple watches. Per Belkin’s documentation, the charging dock is compatible with the iPhone XS, XS Max, and XR models. My wife’s iPhone immediately showed charging as soon as it was placed on the dock, as did her Apple Watch. No thinking involved. The dock also comes with a USB-A port that you can use to charge a third item while your phone and watch are charging. The dock pushes 7.5w, which is more than adequate. I haven’t timed how long it takes to fully charge her Apple phone and watch in comparison to using her normal chargers, so charging times are unknown at this time. This charging dock also comes with a $2,500 connected equipment warranty should any device you place on it be damaged electrically by the dock. All in all, it couldn’t be easier. Unpack the dock and charger, plug the charger into the dock and then a wall socket, and then sit your devices on the dock as shown on the outside of the packing material. Just remember that it is only compatible with certain iPhone models.
