Best MagSafe and Magnetic iPhone Accessories for 2022


As MagSafe accessories proliferate for iPhones -- everything from stands to wallets to car mounts and wireless battery chargers -- here are our current top picks.

Apple carried over its MagSafe charging system to the iPhone 13 series from the iPhone 12. The feature is likely to be integrated into all iPhones moving forward, including the iPhone 14. Since the system relies on simple magnets that attach directly to the phone (or a MagSafe-enabled case), a variety of official and third-party MagSafe accessories have hit the market, some more useful than others.

With so many MagSafe accessories out there -- and even more on the way -- here's a round-up of the best ones I've encountered. Some, as we said, are official Apple-licensed products while others aren't. The main difference is that accessories that aren't Apple certified won't be able to charge at the highest speeds (up to 15 watts). But in a lot of cases, the lack of certification isn't a factor in how well the product performs, though some non Apple-certified MagSafe-compatible accessories sometimes lack strong enough magnets.

Here's a look at my current favorite MagSafe accessories. Note that I've personally, if anecdotally, used all of the products listed below. Again, the unofficial MagSafe device offerings are fine if you're not concerned with charging speed (such as if you're charging overnight). We'll update this list as we discover new top accessories.
