Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the Magnetic 7.5W Wireless Charger, particularly its overall performance and charging speed with newer iPhones. Users appreciate the ease of use with MagSafe, the strength of the magnetic connection, and the convenient cord length. Some customers mention that the charger can heat up a bit during use, and it may not be the exact size as the official Apple product.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged). Select reviewers may receive discounted products, promotional considerations or entries into drawings for honest, helpful reviews.

    Store associate failed to mention that this thing needed a a USB to wall outlet block charger. Couldn’t plug it into my car charger at all and we don’t have any such block charger at home. Total fail on the sale bro.

    [Employee of bestbuy] Be aware: this is compatible with MagSafe equipped iPhones, it is NOT compatible with MagSafe stands or mounts. The actual battery pad is too big in it's width and diameter.

    I needed a charger for my Apple watch. The store clerk suggested this item. It does not work for an Apple watch. Now I have to return it. Poor customer service. Don't sell me something that's not intended for what I need.

    Could not get this to work properly even after removing my phone case. Was using a 20 watt wall power supply but the charger would only work when I spent about 3 minutes moving my phone around until it hit that one sweet spot. Too much effort for a wireless charger that should power up the phone as soon as the magnetic action takes hold of the device.

    This charger is absolutely terrible! It worked "okay" for the first few days. Then after it would just stop working 2 minutes into charging. I tried many different bricks and still had the same issue. Pretty sad a cheaper one on Amazon worked better and had a much stronger magnet. Just remember, Best Buy buys these in for probably only $1-2 and margins the crap out of them to make a profit. I should have known this as a former employee.
