The accessory features a MagSafe charger for the iPhone 12 series and a Qi wireless charging pad at the bottom of the base for devices such as AirPods. The main MagSafe charger charges iPhone 12 models at 15W, and the base charging pad charges at 5W. The MagSafe charger is magnetic, meaning the iPhone 12 series can be set in either portrait or landscape mode.
Additional features include an LED indicator at the base of the charger that indicates the charging status for AirPods. A white light means AirPods, or any other Qi-compatible device, is charging. An amber LED indicates the device is not positioned correctly on the pad and is not charging.
Belkin is offering the charger in either black or white, and it retails for $99.99. Belkin's website says that if customers pre-order today, estimated shipping will take place in late March.
I have the 3 in one, and while it is probably the best 3-in-1 ever made, it is still a little disappointing.
1. The dimple for the AirPods charger is still very hard to find. I often can't get it positioned. It should really be a big divot shaped for the case so that it can fall into it and there be no doubt.
2. It's actually still very difficult to position the iPhone on the MagSafe charger. I guess it is due to the fact that the magnets themselves are so small (just a tiny ring), but you end up sliding your phone all over the surface to get it to lock into place. MagSafe may have addressed the placement issue of phones sliding off the charger after they've been placed, but it has not made it any easier to achieve initial placement.

< BUT ITS SO EXPENSIVE>
Turns out to me, worth every penny i spent on it. best charger / watch charger ever.
1. The dimple for the AirPods charger is still very hard to find. I often can't get it positioned. It should really be a big divot shaped for the case so that it can fall into it and there be no doubt.
2. It's actually still very difficult to position the iPhone on the MagSafe charger. I guess it is due to the fact that the magnets themselves are so small (just a tiny ring), but you end up sliding your phone all over the surface to get it to lock into place. MagSafe may have addressed the placement issue of phones sliding off the charger after they've been placed, but it has not made it any easier to achieve initial placement.
