Reliable and Convenient – A Must-Have Spare Charge

I purchased the Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Cable as a spare for travel since I always forget to take my main one from home. Having an extra charger makes sure that I always have one, and it’s been incredibly convenient.
The cable works exactly as expected—snaps onto my Apple Watch securely and charges efficiently without any issues. The 4-foot length is ideal, offering flexibility without being too long or cumbersome. It’s the same quality as the original, with a strong magnetic connection and reliable charging performance.
If you travel frequently or just want a backup, this is a great investment. No complaints—just a solid, dependable Apple charger!

This product is pretty simple: All it has to do is connect with some kind of energy source and charge my Apple Watch. Fortunately, it does that pretty darn well. I will say that the magnet isn't anywhere near as strong as the one on the charging cable that came with my Watch, but it's still strong enough to not be a major problem. Just make sure that you don't assume a minor nudge (e.g., from accidentally pushing it with something else on your desk) won't stop it from disconnecting.
Hi user300705, Thanks for the great feedback! We're glad to hear the charger is working perfectly with your Apple Watch and that you found it to be a great value. Knowing you'd buy it again means a lot to us. Patricia | Insignia Support

Insignia products are good for the money. If there is ever a problem, Best Buy will make it right. Look for an open box, which is an even better deal. This charger may be slightly more bulky than the OEM model, but I think it is better when not used with a stand.
As a bonus, the charger comes in a sliding box, making it very convenient to travel or keep in a backpack. Last, most cars have USB ports, so one can use this charger to charge the watch in one's car.

I was able to purchase a Apple Watch charger for $19. It works very good and it was worth the price.

We designed it to be a reliable, no-fuss solution, and it’s great to know it’s living up to that. Appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback! Patricia | Insignia Support

Asked for assistance. Was told did not need Apple brand, this half price would work as well. It does, with one HUGE caveat, needs Apple charging block (luckily able to borrow). Lesson learned, you get what you pay for, I was on travel and apparently did not ask the right questions. Apple brand came with block, associate professional and courteous.
Thanks for sharing your experience, DonnaO! We’re glad the cable worked out in the end, even with that unexpected twist. Your insight about the charging block is super helpful for other travelers—great reminder to double-check compatibility. Appreciate the kind words about our team too!

Priced right and charges my watch the same as the Apple charger. I lost the charger that came with my watch so I can't measure the difference, but I think this one is slightly larger. Not a showstopper for me.
Hi Srikanth, Thanks for sharing your experience! It’s great to hear the Insignia charger is holding up as a solid alternative to the original Apple Watch cable. Reliable performance at a good value is always a win glad it’s working perfectly for you! Patricia | Insignia Support

Works perfect as my spare charger I take to travel with!

I bought this as an "extra" for the one that came with the watch. It works great and it's handy to have two of them. The price was very good and I love the ease of ordering and picking up curbside with Best Buy.

Needs a Power Supply

Works great but really thought that it came with the wall socket power supply, so I had to connect it to my computer to use.

So, I actually bought this so that I would always have a spare on-hand in case I ever lost the one that came with my Apple Watch. Yes, this one is a little cheaper than Apple's, but even with that, it still works the same and is a good buy for those who need a new charger or at least have a spare one.
Save yourself a little bit of money and get something like this instead of the Apple one. Your wallet will thank you for it.
Thank you for your review of the Insignia™ Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Cable! We're glad to hear that it does the job perfectly and that you had no issues with charging your Apple Watch.
