Logitech’s new wireless charger is tailor-made for the iPhone
If you’re tired of waiting for the AirPower to finally arrive, Logitech has a quick, iPhone-shaped fix.
The company’s new Powered wireless charger, designed “in collaboration with Apple,” can’t charge more than one device at a time, but it’s tailor-made for the iPhone (especially the iPhone X) and has a couple of details that might make you choose it over other chargers.
Don’t expect anything magical, though: Logitech Powered is a Qi-compatible wireless charging stand providing 7.5W of power.
But the devil is in the detail. For example, the Powered has a u-shaped cradle that keeps your phone from falling out. It’s also designed to work in both portrait and landscape mode, and it’s angled at a 65-degree angle that Logitech claims is optimal for Face ID recognition.
Powered’s design complements the iPhone’s curves, it’s compatible with official Apple cases (both silicone and leather) and is only available in white. There’s no two ways about it: This thing is primarily aimed at iPhone owners. However, it will work with other Qi-enabled phones with similar dimensions, which includes Samsung S9 and S9+, for example.
Logitech Powered will become available in August for $69.99.
