ZeroLemon 10ft Magnetic Wireless Charger - Magsafe Compatible Fast Charging Pad with Extra Long Braided Cable for iPhone 16 Pro Max/16/15/14/13/12 Series & AirPods (Black) | Perfect for Bedside, Office & Car Charging

I’ve been using this charger for almost 2 weeks now, and it is slowly becoming my new favorite go-to charger for my phone, AirPods, etc. Many of the negative reviews I read on this item complained of heat when charging; and yes, while using a wireless charger in general releases a lot more heat, the only time I had an issue with this charger was when I was fast charging—like using a 20+ watt power adapter. I personally haven’t had any issues with unusual excess heat when plugging this charger into any normal non-fast charging outlet (like my laptop, pc, a dock or dongle, USB-C outlet, etc.), thus why I tend to carry this cable in my bag with me when I leave home. Despite this, my iPhone always gets hot when wireless fast-charging, and I personally didn’t notice a difference between the heat generated while using this one opposed to any of my other wireless chargers; although my Apple MagSafe charger is the only one that my phone doesn’t get as hot with. Ultimately, this has only been a problem when I'm trying to use my phone while wireless charging, in which case (from my experience), it always exists regardless of the brand (if heat is a dealbreaker for you, there are MagSafe chargers with active cooling fans on the back that actually work very well, but they also can be kind of expensive unfortunately).My initial impressions of this Zerolemon charger were of how surprisingly actually high quality it looked and felt in my hands. Maybe I’m too used to the pictures looking better than the product, but all I can say is it just looks and feels good. The puck’s casing is the type of metal that feels cold to the touch, it’s polished smooth with a color finish that resembles the metal cases of a MacBook or iPad, the cable itself is stiff and is sturdy enough to stand up straight without flopping over when held up, etc. In my opinion, this charger has a premium-feeling design—not like an e-waste Apple copy—that feels a bit more focused on function and long-term use. I bought the blue version which is 1) a color Apple doesn’t offer and 2) literally FEET longer than the longest MagSafe charger offered by Apple (which has been a blessing to cable manage under my desk). Personally, my favorite part of the design is the silver ring around the blue puck surface that separates the metal from the soft charging pad—just a nice small random detail. The charging works normally as one would expect and is functionally no different than other wireless chargers. The magnets—which is one of the most important aspects of a MagSafe accessory—are on the stronger end of those I’ve used (although the Apple MagSafe feels maybe a tad stronger but not significantly). The magnets in this charger feel a bit similar to those in my Anker 621 MagGo. Regardless, this Zerolemon puck has been strong enough to hold my phone up securely when in a vertical position or even when dangling.Overall, I believe this is a solid item for the price. It costs much less than the Apple version, feels legitimately premium (and all around basically soft, smooth, and tight feeling), has a really long cable, and just does what I need it to do. If you’re looking for a MagSafe charger but not wanting to spend upwards of $50 on a single cable and not wanting to buy something so cheap that it’s basically disposable, this seemed to be a decent option for me.
