Here are some amazing wireless and old-school iPhone docking stations you can check out.
1. Anker PowerWave: Editor’s choice
Along with 2 wireless fast charging pads for Phone and Apple Watch, Anker PowerWave 4-in-1 docking station incorporates a Lightning connector dock for AirPods and a USB-C connector. It’s indeed an all-rounder charger. However, it doesn’t have MagSafe compatibility, so you will only get 7.5W charging for iPhone. The MFi certifications guarantee strong magnetic alignment and stable charging for your Apple Watch. Besides, Anker’s exclusive MultiProtect technology offers temperature regulation, short-circuit avoidance, and other features. Although, do note that it doesn’t support thick cases and only supports plastic, polycarbonate, rubber cases, etc. So, make sure you have the right one.

2. Mophie 3-in-1 docking station for iPhone: Supports fast charging
As the name suggests, you get to charge 3 devices simultaneously. This docking station boats a 15W quick wireless charging stand, Apple Watch magnetic charger, and a charging pad for AirPods. So, you can juice all your Apple devices together quickly and safely. Also, you can set your Apple Watch in Nightstand Mode to use it as an alarm. I find it very convenient because you can charge your iPhone in both portrait and landscape orientations. Furthermore, the specially designed tray for charging AirPods ensures that it charges properly and doesn’t interfere with other devices. But I faced issues with the LED indicator and thick cases, so consider that before hitting that buy now button.

With the incorporated MagSafe, you will get powerful magnet alignment and strength for wireless charging iPhone 12/13 up to 7.5W. As for other Qi-compatible gadgets, they’ll juice with 5W wireless charging. Besides, the docking station features a solid weighted base and a wireless charging pad for your other Qi-enabled devices like AirPods. An interesting feature is the one-hand, hassle-free attachment and removal experience (just grab it and go!). The quality weighted base with a silicone strip ensures a non-slip hold on your desk. There’s more, you can choose between a Smart Hub PD45W or GaN Charger PD 30W while purchasing the product. Everything was quite impressive until I tried to charge my older iPhone. It was charging slowly, but the phone was heating up.

Another amazing 3-in-1 wireless docking station to juice your iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods. But you need a 12V/2A or 9V/2.7A converter to charge the phone, earbuds, and watch simultaneously. Also, it only has the USB-A interface for the watch cable. The magnetic charging pad enables 7.5W charging for iPhone. Also, it disconnects charging to safeguard the battery from overcharging. Plus, you’ll be stress-free as it has over-current, -voltage, and -temperature protection and identifies external objects. To guarantee your iPhone is charging safely, the dock base has a venting hole and an anti-slip silicone layer so it won’t slide or fall off. You can precisely set the Watch cord in the back of the station. Besides, the tilt angle design enables easier viewing of the display.

The green light will flash for 3 seconds if a power supply is present. When you place your iPhone properly, it will indicate for 20 seconds. The LED indicator will remain on while in charging mode and turn off when fully charged.
