iPhone 12 MagSafe: Everything You Need To Know

You're thinking about buying an iPhone 12, but want to learn more about it. One of the new features you're excited about is MagSafe. In this article, I'll tell you everything you need to know about iPhone 12 MagSafe!

What Is MagSafe?

MagSafe was originally designed for Mac chargers. It would safely disconnect the charger from a Mac in case you tripped over the cable.

Another version of MagSafe was developed for the iPhone 12 after Apple discovered that many phones were slipping off of the wireless charging pads. As a result, MagSafe became a new feature on the iPhone 12 line.

How To Use iPhone 12 MagSafe

To use the MagSafe wireless charger, first connect the USC-C connector to a power adapter. Lay the MagSafe charger face up on a flat surface before setting your iPhone 12 on it. After that, your iPhone will start charging.

Is MagSafe Faster Than A Lightning Cable For Charging?

The MagSafe charger won't really charge your iPhone any faster than a Lightning cable. Although it's designed for a faster charge, it really depends on the USB power adapter you use. It's possible that your iPhone may charge faster with a Lightning cable.

Is A MagSafe Charger Worth It?

In our opinion, the MagSafe charger isn't worth it. It's not really wireless charging because of how the device sticks to the phone, even when you lift it up. You'll also need a specific power adapter to use a MagSafe charger.

Additionally, the MagSafe's chord is only three feet long, which doesn't give you much room to move it around. There are tons of other wireless chargers available online at a better price and that offer a better user experience.

Which Phones Are MagSafe Compatible With?

The MagSafe charge is compatible with the following iPhones:

• iPhone 12
• iPhone 12 Pro
• iPhone 12 Pro Max
• iPhone 12 Mini

This could change in the future, but for now, only the 12th generation of iPhones will work with the MagSafe.

Can You Fast Charge An iPhone With MagSafe?

Yes, the MagSafe charger features up to 15W of power delivery, which means faster wireless charging. The speed at which your device charges is dependent on the power adapter that you use with MagSafe. Overall, it's a quick and efficient way to charge your iPhone.

Is MagSafe USB-C?

Yes, MagSafe features a USB-C charging plug and you'll need a USB-C power box to charge it properly.

How Much Does A MagSafe Charger Cost?

Apple's MagSafe charger costs $39. However, it doesn't come with a power adapter. That adapter costs another $19, if you purchase from Apple directly.
