Anker’s Prime 25W Qi2.2-Certified Palm-Sized 3-in-1 Foldable MagSafe Charger replaces three different chargers on a nightstand, providing power for an iPhone, an Apple Watch, and AirPods from a single base that folds down to fit in the palm of your hand. With Qi2.2 certification, the charger delivers a higher rate of 25W than most other wireless chargers that peak at 15W. This is also the fastest wireless charging speed currently available for iPhones. The magnets automatically position each device, and the base completely collapses for travel.

Head over to Amazon to get the Anker Prime 25W Qi2.2-Certified Palm-Sized 3-in-1 Foldable MagSafe Charger for just $100, down from its usual price of $150. That’s a $50 discount and 33% off.

A foldable MagSafe charging station for three devices

Qi2.2 is the technology specification you should know. The previous technology limit was 15W. Qi2.2 removes this limitation and increases the maximum charge rate to 25W while maintaining the magnetic positioning feature that made the original successful. With a compatible iPhone model, this delivers significantly faster wireless charging than the very slow trickle of charge commonly associated with wireless charging.

Magnetic positioning makes these high rates possible. Without magnetic positioning, a generic wireless charger coil often fails to line up, wasting energy as heat. Your phone may take twice as long to fully charge and get warm in the process. Magnets snap the coils into position every time, so the charger delivers what it’s rated for rather than whatever the alignment happens to allow on a given night.

Foldability is the primary advantage of this product traveling with you versus permanently residing on a dresser at home. The entire station flattens to about the size of a deck of cards, so a hotel nightstand can provide the same convenience you have with your bedside table at home. That also eliminates the need to pack three separate cables for a weekend away.

Wireless charging for an Apple Watch uses a dedicated puck that supports fast charging on applicable models, taking a Series 7 or later to 80 percent in about 45 minutes. The AirPods charging pad sits flat on the base of the station and supports wireless charging cases for the Pro models, as well as most non-Pro models from recent years. Wireless charging for each device type occurs simultaneously, without requiring manual rotation across a single pad during an overnight charge.

ActiveShield 2.0 continuously monitors the temperature of the products connected to the charger and dynamically adjusts the output to ensure cooler operation. Since this charger is used with a bed and left plugged in overnight, preventing excessive heat is essential. Even when located behind a nightstand that does not allow airflow, none of the components produce sufficient heat to become concerned over. Anker backs it all with a 24-month warranty.
