Power up with the best wireless phone chargers of 2024

The Spigen SteadiBoost wireless phone charger not only has a premium look and feel, but it also has enough juice for fast charging. For those phones that support it (and it supports all devices with Qi certification) it can deliver up to 7.5 watts for iOS smartphones and up to 10 or 15 watts for Android and others. We also like the vertical stand which means you have the option of keeping an eye on your phone throughout the day or laying it flat for a more pad-like low profile on your desk. Safety-wise, this is very well protected - featuring heat control and smart chip protection to intelligently manage the charger itself. All in all, it's a great-looking and practical wireless charger that is a great match for a wide range of smartphones.

The Anker PowerWave Pad is probably the most popular wireless charger around. It's a universal charger - when paired with a Samsung adapter, it'll switch modes to fast-charge 10W for charging Samsung smartphones, while it'll go to a fast-charge 7.5W mode for iPhones or 5W for other phones or Airpods. 

Its performance is nippy, with Galaxy smartphones charging fully in an advertised 30 minutes, and it'll even charge through phone cases (up to 5mm thick). Note: while you need to provide the relevant mains adapter, the pad comes with a 4ft USB cable.

Thanks to the MagSafe compatible design, this Belkin BoostCharge Pro can accommodate all compatible phones on its magnetic mount. That means that this turns into a convenient and practical phone stand for a bedside table or desk too. It'll also fold flat for a more pad-like profile if you need it to.

But what we like to see on any phone stand is a tilt function - and this does just that, making it the ideal way to watch videos or just use the phone while it's on the charging stand. In terms of power delivery, this is Qi2 standard - that means it uses those MagSafe magnets to perfectly align any compatible phone for maximum charging efficiency. It's smart and it works fast with up to 15 watts of fast charging power.

Given that the point of a decent MagSafe wireless charger is to perfectly align with your phone to maximise the charging power, this JSAUX model does that very well indeed. Not only is this a 15-watt wireless charger, but it's also compatible with a wide range of iPhones, Android and Google phones. The included cable is also a dual-adapter type, with USB-C and USB-A options.The design also complements the advanced magnetic alignment and charging features on offer here. It has a premium look, but the main feature for us is the overall size. If you like a MagSafe charging pad that doesn't look like an oversized drink coaster, this is it. It's compact and doesn't overshadow the phone when it's attached.

As with other products here, the Anker Power Bank, 622 attaches to the rear of an iPhone (12 or higher) via MagSafe. It's a nice, compact option that is ideal for commuting and air travel. Its capacity is 5,000mAh, which is more than most, and it even comes in cheaper than many normal power banks at this price. It charges up to 7.5W too, depending on what your phone can take.One of our favourite features here though is that it can work as a stand as well as attach to your phone magnetically. All in all, we reckon this is a great – if chunky – addition for anyone looking to charge up wirelessly on the move.

If you're Apple through and through, then Belkin has what you need. The BoostCharge PRO 3 will wirelessly charge an iPhone 12, Apple Watch and AirPods. Visually, it's an impressive sight, as an iPhone 15 (or 12 and above) connects to its charge pad via MagSafe and thus appears to float.

The Apple Watch rests just next to the phone on another pad while AirPods can charge via the base. It's a 15W charger, too, so everything gets powered up very quickly. We can see this looking great and being a practical choice for a bedside or desktop.

As the name suggests, this MagSafe Duo Charger uses Apple's magnetic technology to attach to an iPhone 8 or later model. And, once unfolded, the other pad can pop up to support an Apple Watch for wireless charging. Despite the Apple name, it'll still work with other Qi-certified devices too. 

As with many devices these days, there's no included adapter – but the included USB-C to Lightning cable should suit most user's existing phone adapters. One of the best features here, though (other than the outstanding Apple design and build) is the folding design. That makes this the ideal wireless charger for travel – compact, sturdy and able to keep your iPhone and Apple Watch topped up no matter where you go.

If you're the proud owner of a Samsung Z Flip (although, this will work with other QI phones) this is the wireless charger you've been waiting for. Other than the fact that it has a premium look and feel with its sleek low-profile base, it's perfectly designed to be a vertical stand for the Z Flip. The lack of a tall support means that you can slot your Z Flip onto this in its folded form and the support isn't visible. 

Other than giving an uncluttered look to your folding phone, this will deliver up to 10W of charge and comes with plenty of safety features like over-voltage and over-temperature protection. Lastly, the whole thing folds flat, so travelling with this is easy.

The one place you can really benefit from wireless phone charging is of course the car. But what makes this BELKIN WIC004btBK model work so well is the combination of vent-mounting for the charger itself and MagSafe compatibility. All in all, that means you can slot this into a vent and quickly and easily mount your phone perfectly.

You're also getting the well-renowned Belkin build quality, so this should weather the knocks and bumps much better than most in-car chargers. Compatibility is also excellent, fitting iPhone 12 and greater, plus all MagSafe-compatible and Qi-certified smartphones. Neat and functional, it's an in-car essential.

Aside from being a great all-around wireless charger, this one is for those Samsung fans who really want to keep things on-brand. This Samsung Convertible Wireless Charging Stand has a simplistic design that just works. The materials and build are typically premium, so you can sit this on your desk and it will really look the part.

It's not as fast as other chargers here, delivering a maximum of 9 watts, but that's enough for most Samsung and Android users. Believe it or not, it'll also work with other Qi-certified phones – including iPhones. Best of all, it can fold flat and be used as a pad or stand.
