I love the design having owned a less-powerful no-name Qi version for about a year. It folds up super small for travel and unfurls into a “Z” to simultaneously charge my iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods while I sleep, all from a single USB-C cable.

This was this one ’s the$79.99 kuxiu x40qtri - fold up magnetized wireless battery charger , but it ’s usable under many name and toll on amazon or temu .

I screw the intent having have a less - hefty no - name Qi adaptation for about a class .

It fold up first-rate modest for change of location and unfurls into a “ omega ” to at the same time tear my iPhone , Apple Watch , and AirPods while I catch some Z’s , all from a undivided USB - coke transmission line .

The box says it charges iPhones at 15W and Apple Watches and AirPods at 5W each. In practice, I was seeing it pull a maximum of 14W when charging only my iPhone 15 Pro and no more than 23W total when charging the phone, AirPods Pro, and Apple Watch Ultra simultaneously.

A reasonably strong MagSafe-compatible magnet holds the iPhone in place vertically or horizontally to take advantage of StandBy mode. There’s a weaker magnet on the folding Apple Watch puck, while the AirPods are held in place by gravity.

The aluminum alloy charging stand feels heavy in the hand, while the hinges have good resistance to maintain whatever shape you fold the stand into.

Here, you can read the rated specs for this Qi2 wireless charging stand branded with Kuxiu, model X40Q.

It ships with a 36W USB-C charger, cable, and carrying case.

It pulls as much as 23W when charging three devices, in my testing. Usually, it pulls less, however, which is normal.

The iPhone pulling 14W, just shy of the 15W maximum allowed by Qi2. Thanks, heat.

It can still charge in this shape if you only need to charge your iPhone. An LED indicator on the back next to the USB-C jack lights up briefly and then turns off so it doesn’t interrupt your sleep.

I love how small and portable this 3-in-1 stand is. A soft touch coating adds to the tactility, giving the overall build a feeling of high quality.
