Belkin BoostCharge Pro 2-in-1 Wireless Charging Pad
Belkin BoostCharge Pro 2-in-1 Wireless Charging Pad is a newly launched product in August 2023 by Belkin which also happens to be the smaller brother of the BoostCharge Pro 3-in-1 Wireless Charging Pad.
You can tell from the name that it can wireless charge two devices simultaneously: an iPhone at 15W and a wireless Qi device at 5W. Since it is MagSafe certified, your iPhone can charge at 15W.
Like its bigger brother, the Belkin BoostCharge Pro 2-in-1 Wireless Charging Pad is available in black and white. It retails for S$139 on Lazada or Shopee.
It is more compact and lightweight since it is missing an Apple Watch charger, measuring 161 x 86 x 16 mm, and weighing 360 g. This would make it a good companion for overseas travel.
Unlike the Belkin BoostCharge Pro 3-in-1 Wireless Charging Pad, this charger has a USB-C input port, so you can use it with any USB-C charger that supplies more than 25W. Inside, the box has a 1.5 m USB-C to USB-C cable but doesn’t come with a charger.
I could use the Belkin BoostCharge Pro 3-in-1 Wireless Charging Pad out of the box since it comes with a power adapter, but not this. Given the price, Belkin could throw in a 1-port USB-C charger so that it can be used immediately out of the box.
Since your iPhone is charged flat on the charger, you cannot use it as a Nightstand (StandBy Mode), which will come with iOS 17. If that is a concern for you, you can consider getting the BoostCharge Pro 2-in-1 Wireless Charger Stand instead.
I will use the Belkin BoostCharge Pro 2-in-1 Wireless Charging Pad at my bedside table since I don’t use my iPhone as a nightstand. Occasionally, I will charge my AirPods in the master bedroom after using them for the night. So, this charger will fit my use case.
I do have an Apple Watch, but I don’t have the habit of charging it in the master bedroom, so that is why I got a separate Belkin BoostCharge Pro Portable Fast Charger for Apple Watch to charge my Apple Watch at my niche area near the entrance of my house.
