Hey guys and gals, here is another unboxing/review coming in hot. This is of the new Apple MagSafe charger for the iPhone 12 lineup. I bought this at the Apple store for $39.00.

The charger comes with everything you need except the main thing...a power adapter. So the USB C cable is attached to the actual charger and doesn't come off. You will need a USB C power adapter to make this puppy work.

Apple calls for you to buy their 20W USB C charger for $19.00. I personally have a ton of USB C power bricks laying around. I used the one that came with my Google Pixel 4. I know that one is 18W but it works just fine.

The peak power the MagSafe charger is going to give you is 15W. It will vary depending on which power adapter you are using, how much battery you have left on your iPhone 12, etc.

If you have the iPhone 12 Mini, you are kind of getting shafted here. It will only charge your iPhone 12 Mini at a peak of 12W. Really weird. I don't know why but it might have to do with just the size of the battery? Maybe...

It can charge your newer Airpods and Airpod Pros. It will charge those at 7.5W.

One interesting fact is that you if you happen to have your phone plugged into the wall, and have the phone on the MagSafe charger, it actually won't wirelessly charge. The charging will come from the charging plugged into the device. Just a little fun fact!

I don't like the price of this. I feel like it's to expensive. It already doesn't come with a power adapter, so if you went all Apple, you are spending basically $60 for a wireless charger. Seems a little silly and expensive to me.

The MagSafe charger will work with thin cases that aren't Apple. If you have a more rugged, thicker case, it will not work. I moved it around a lot on my phone with a case like that on. The magnets never grabbed.

It does also act as a Qi wireless charger as well. So if you have an iPhone 8 or newer, it will charge your phone wirelessly.

So there you go! I hope you enjoy this review. Please consider SUBSCRIBING and don't forget to hit that LIKE button if you enjoyed this content.
