Every Monday, Bradley Chambers explores the latest and greatest in MagSafe and wireless charging technologies to help you optimize your Apple devices that support wireless charging.
Understanding Qi2
In our industry, buzzwords can sometimes lose their meaning. So, what exactly is Qi2? Qi2 is the latest wireless charging standard aimed at enhancing efficiency, speed, and device compatibility across various manufacturers. Unlike its predecessor, the original Qi standard, Qi2 introduces a Magnetic Power Profile (MPP), resulting in improved alignment for more effective power transfer.
If you own an iPhone, this power bank provides 15W wireless charging—up from the previous 7.5W limit seen with older Qi chargers. Additionally, third-party accessories gain increased reliability since Qi2-certified chargers are subject to rigorous performance criteria. In summary, for those seeking wired charging speeds through wireless technology, Qi2 is the way forward.
What’s Included in LISEN’s New Charger?
LISEN’s latest MagSafe charger features a built-in kickstand, adding functionality beyond mere charging. Whether it’s video calls on FaceTime, watching Silo while flying, or reading emails, the kickstand ensures your iPhone remains at an optimal angle. Personally, I’ve taken to using a MagSafe battery with a kickstand when traveling, charging my iPhone at night while utilizing Standby mode.
In addition to supporting MagSafe charging, it offers USB-C output, allowing you to recharge your Kindle Paperwhite as well. As I transition to a fully USB-C lifestyle, I appreciate this dual functionality.
With a 10,000mAh capacity, this power bank can recharge an iPhone 16 approximately 1.7 times wirelessly or 2.1 times via USB-C, ensuring you stay powered up through an extended day or even a few days. No more scrambling for an outlet during meetings or long commutes.
During a recent week in Nashville, this power bank served as my main charger throughout the day. Moving in and out of meetings while taking notes on my iPhone, I would charge the battery during dinners and fully recharge my iPhone overnight. As my battery dipped throughout the day, I could effortlessly bring it back to 100% using this charger, a real lifesaver for its power capacity.
Conclusion
In summary, LISEN’s Qi2 power bank combines the convenience of MagSafe with impressive fast charging capabilities in a compact form factor, complete with a useful kickstand. If you’re on the lookout for a travel-friendly 15-watt MagSafe charger, this model hits all the right marks, with its USB-C output being the perfect finishing touch.
