    1 Charger for all your wireless Apple/Qi Devices!

    THIS… Is BestBuy Essentials two in one Iphone and Apple Watch charger - NOTE - you will still need your own apple watch charger independently of this, but it WILL plug into this hub and uses a really ingenious method to wrap it nicely up in the hub. This is actually one of my favorite new gadgets to reduce my cable nesting in my bag. Between my watch, laptop, phone and whatever my wife brings, we always end up with a nest of cables in MY bag lol. Using only one cable all wrapped up in this small hub, I can now easily all of my electronics off of one type c cable. I really enjoy how simple it is, while it isn't super cool looking, it is everything it needs to be and easy to spot in your bag. The only odd thing about the product, is that there is a dongle going from type a to usb c, as there isn’t a direct type c plug in to the device but rather just usb a. I added a photo of it, I guess it’s a nice random dongle to have? I don’t have a phone/watch stand at home, so I just use this as it is just so nifty and universal. Your iPhone is going to be limited to 7.5w wireless charging which is slower than charging off of the wall, however, other devices that are capable can charge up to 10w wireless. What is super nice about this product is that it is actually super affordable while also being from BestBuy, as always, BestBuy has an excellent return policy and even better customer service, so you never have to worry about buying a product that you don’t like… so why not test it out?!

    Good travel charger but could be better

    This travel charger is ok, but honestly it feels like its about 75% complete and lacking. It will do what its supposed to do, which is charge, but it could have been a great little item. It comes in the package with the foldable charger, a preinstalled USB to USB-C converter plugged into the phone charging side underneath, and it also comes with a USB-C to USB-C cable. And this is where it starts to lose points. What it doesn’t come with, is a couple important things. It doesn’t include a watch charger, so you have to spend more money getting one of those, and it doesn’t come with a plug adapter for the end of the USB-C included cable in order to actually use this product. I do understand that as is with the USB-C cable you can plug this into your Macbook but this is supposed to be travel friendly. Alot of airports and hotels feature USB charging ports, but not USB-C ports, atleast not yet. This product should atleast include a wall adapter to be able to use this product at will while traveling and not having to worry about the limitations of the item. The design also suffers from the lack of the watch charger. The phone charging side is fine and sturdy , but because you need to install your own watch charger and wrap the cord inside around the product so it can actually fold as its supposed to, the watch charger side of this product feels really flimsy. If they had just built in a watch charger, they could have made the watch charger side just as stable as the phone charging side and made this a home run product. The two sides clasp with a little silicone latch on the side. It should hold up but also has potential to tear. Overall this should be better. Ask $10 more and include a built in watch charger and wall plug adapter.

    This 2-in-1 watch charger works great, my wife claimed it instantly and said she was taking it to work because as a nurse, she sometimes needs to charge her phone and especially her watch during her long 12+ hour shifts. Note: This accessory does NOT come with the watch charging puck, just the insert for it. You need to use your own puck and also an AC Adapter or laptop that can handle 2x USB cables. The package and picture don’t show the puck included but I guess it could be more clear so there is no confusion. The price point should be an indicator however that it doesn’t have the watch charging puck. It does have a built-in MagSafe charger, so fro that and the price alone this is worth it imo. The quality is a solid feeling silicone material that is rugged and should stand up over time. The two halves of the charger can fold on top of each other to be more compact and there’s a little latch that holds it folded. For the watch puck side, there’s a groove that lets you wind up the watch and included USB-C cable like a hose on a hose holder. Overall a very good accessory for those that travel a lot or want a charger at a remote location like work consistently.

    I bought this for when I travel and it is perfect. I didn't realized that I also needed to buy an extra watch cord AND charging block. It would be better if the extra watch cord wasn't needed, but the charger works great. And charges everything fast!

    it feels very flimsy, like it will break easily. Other than that it works fine. Does what it's supposed to. I'm dumb and didn't realize you have to already have a watch charger, but ig that's why it was so inexpensive.

    Pocket sized all-in-one charger!

    This unique charger folds flat and has a small strap to keep it closed when not in use. It can charge via a power block (yours) and the included USB-C cable. The unit has a USB-C to USB-A adapter that stores in the base of the unit. The stated charging strengths are 7.5W for an iPhone, 5W for an Apple Watch and up to 10W for other Qi-enabled devices. It charged an iPhone 13 and an iPhone 11 with a mag safe case with no issues, but it would not charge any other Qi-enabled device in my testing. I tried 2 name brand cell phones and a Qi charging enabled tablet and none would charge. But it worked flawlessly for the Apple devices, and has a discreet internal cord management system when not in use. When folded it's a little over 3.1 inches by 3.5 inches square and about 1.5 inches high, so it will easily fit in the side pocket of any computer bag. The body of the unit is a combination of plastic and silicone. The watch charging ring folds flat for storage, or will fold up to hold the watch for charging and visibility at night.

    The Best Buy essentials 2-in-1 10W Magnetic Wireless Charger Travel Kit with Apple Watch Charger Holder is an impressive accessory for Apple device users. This charger kit is specifically designed to cater to the needs of those who frequently travel or need to charge multiple devices simultaneously. One of the kit's most notable features is its magnetic wireless charging capability. This allows for easy and secure attachment of an iPhone, ensuring efficient charging without the hassle of wires. The charger also supports a fast charging speed of 10W, which is quite effective for quickly powering up devices. With the USB-A to USB-C adapter underneath, it can accommodate both types of Apple Watch cables, old and new USB-A or USB-C. The inclusion of an Apple Watch charger holder is a thoughtful addition. It accommodates the Apple Watch perfectly, allowing for a seamless charging experience. This feature is particularly beneficial for those who own multiple Apple devices, including the Apple Watch and AirPods. To charge the Apple watch, you will need to have the original watch charger that came with the watch, the charger clicks into place and becomes part of the holder, otherwise, it’s just a plastic ring that flips up. The Apple Watch charger wraps around the body of the charger and hides under the silicone cover, plug it into the USB adapter underneath, then plug the charging cable it came with into a wall brick and both the phone and watch will charge at the same time. Portability is a key aspect of this charger kit. Its compact design makes it an ideal travel companion, easily fitting into bags or luggage without taking up much space. This makes it a great option for business travelers or vacationers who need to keep their devices charged on the go. It’s made of plastic and silicone, so it won’t set off any alarms through airport security. I love how the wires wrap around the body and are covered by the silicone cover, keeps it neat and tidy, hidden away and secure. In terms of build quality and design, the charger feels durable and well-made. The aesthetics are sleek and modern, fitting well with Apple's design ethos. Overall, the Best Buy essentials 2-in-1 10W Magnetic Wireless Charger Travel Kit with Apple Watch Charger Holder is a versatile and efficient charging solution. It's especially suitable for Apple users looking for a convenient way to charge their devices, whether at home or while traveling. The combination of fast charging, portability, and compatibility with multiple devices makes it a valuable accessory for any Apple device owner.

    This is a perfect setup for travel as it’s compact to put in a bag. You can charge your watch and phone at the same time. The charging pad has a magnate in it to lock the phone into place. I use a generic case that does not include the apple magnate and the phone still can charge which is nice. I was also able to charge my google pixel 8 on the pad as well, you just have to put it in the correct spot. I wish it wasn’t white as I think it will get dirty looking quickly since it’s a softer plastic. This is not a charging setup that you would keep in your pocket as it is a little bulky. I thought this product included the charger for the watches, but it does not. You have to use the one the watch came and install it in the charging pad. Under the phone charging pad is a USB type A connection but it also come with a USB Type A to USB Type C connector. So you can use an older watch charger or a new one. To connect the pad to power you will need a USB Type C plug, this one plug will provide power to both the watch and phone. I’m happy this will work with other phones as I can now just take this when I travel and not worry about having an iPhone charger and a google pixel charger. Overall this is a solid device and would make a great gift for someone who travels or just would like an all in one charging setup.

    The Best Buy Essentials 2-in-1 Magnetic Wireless Charging pad is a must-have for anyone who travels - or just anyone who needs power on the go. This device is fantastic both in form and function. The device can charge an Qi enable phone - in my case, I use it to charge an Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max along with an Apple Watch. I was also able to careful position my AirPods Pro on the side of the charging pad for the phone and it charged the AirPods perfectly, too. The unique part of this product is the portability it offers. When folded up, it's just slightly larger than an average bifold wallet and slides in to a pocket or a bag easily. The charging pad comes with a USB-C wire along with a USB-A adapter. I used it with USB-C plugged in to a 10W USB power source. Between the ease of folding it up (including the wire) and the size - this is definitely a must have for people on the go. This past holiday, I used this charging pad to keep all my devices charged while taking up very little room. I would highly recommend.

    2 stars for the cheap price I got it from. 1 star for the look. This is NOT a stand-alone charging, you must use your own watch charging cradle to snap it into the ring. Also, need your regular usb-c charging cable to connect to this pad. This is just a cradle, nothing more.

    Great portable charger for iPhone and Apple Watch... I would give 5 stars if this product came with an Apple Watch charger built in and a USB-C charging brick. The magnetic charger for the iPhone makes a strong connection and has no problems charging through my phone case (BodyGlove all weather, clear case). Overall great case if you have a USB-C brick and Apple Watch charger handy.

    Compact combo charger that's great for travel or any situation where space may be at a premium. Does what it's supposed to do, and at a great price. Only four stars because WOW did my AirPods get hot after sitting on the mag charger. They were almost too hot to touch. I didn't have that issue with my phone.

    If you travel, remembering cables and keeping them organized can be a pain. The Best Buy essentials 2 in 1 10W wireless charging is an attempt to solve the problem. In the box you get the folding charging unit, and a USB C cable. There's no charging plug - so you need to supply your own. There's also no Apple Watch charger, so you need to supply your own. Setup / Cable Management In terms of setup, you need to put in your Apple Watch charger first. It took me a few attempts to find the best winding pattern for the Apple Watch charger. My advice is plug the charger into the inside USB port on the travel charger and double wind the cord (see photo). Make sure you leave about an extra inch from the internal USB A/C port so that the charger will sit flat when open. You can use a USB A or USB Apple Watch charger. The internal charging port (see photo) comes with a removable USB A to USB C dongle. So I used an old USB A Apple Watch charger. Powering the Travel Charger Everything is powered by the external USB C cable. There's some sort of internal pass through so the single cable powers the travel charger, which then can charge your iPhone and Watch at the same time. Again, you need your own power adapter (I recommend a 20w) and its a shame that there's no cable management for the USB C cable, so you still have a spare cable floating around in your bag and there's not enough room to use the cable management bay for the Apple Watch charger. I feel this is a miss. In Use: Good Magsafe / Tilt Adjustable Apple Watch There's some things to like. The 10W Magsafe adapter is VERY good. Great magnetic attachment to the phone and no risk you will bump your phone off the charger. The Apple Watch charger can also tilt up, so great for night stand mode on your watch which is ideal for travel. Charging speed seems good, but I am using a 20W USB C charger. Overall Thoughts This travel charger is a nice concept but I think it's a little clunky in execution. Unless you have a spare Apple Watch charger, you are going to require either purchasing another (which adds to the cost) or you will have to use this as your permanent charging solution. Not having storage for the included USB Charging cable is frustrating and the USB charging cable is shorter than it should be if you're trying to charge this in a hotel where power outlets can be at floor level. This is one of those rare times where I wouldn't really recommend the product unless you want this as your permanent solution. I'm on the fence whether this should be a 2 or 3 out of 5, I'm giving it 2 as I think it needs some changes to live up to the promise of being useful. You're probably better just having two cables and a charger in your bag when you travel. Final note: The picture does make it look like it has an Apple Watch charger built in (it does not).
