Apple’s new MagSafe Charger will be as fast to top up the iPhone 16 Series as a regular cable charger | Infinium-tech
Apple launched an updated MagSafe charger yesterday, just ahead of the arrival of the iPhone 16. It’s still the same compact puck on the outside, compatible with Qi2 and Qi charging, but it comes with wireless charging up to 25W.
As per the official website, the battery can charge up to 50% in about 30 minutes when paired with a 30W USB-C power adapter.
The good news is that the iPhone 16 will charge wirelessly faster than the iPhone 15 with a regular 20W adapter.
The bad news is that 25W rates are reserved for the latest iPhones — the new MagSafe charger will only offer up to 15W for any phone between the iPhone 12 and iPhone 15, and up to 7.5W (non-magnetic) between the iPhone 8 and iPhone 11.
Apple iPhone Accessories
The MagSafe Charger costs $39/£39/€49 for the 1-meter option or $49/£49/€59 for the 2-meter version, though it’s not yet available in some countries, such as China.
The 30W USB-C power adapter is also sold separately, and costs $39/£39/€45. Both accessories can be shipped immediately, so they can reach the new owner before the iPhone 16 arrives in ten days.
