Ulasan: Pengecas 3-dalam-1 Anker dan Belkin Menawarkan Pilihan Qi2 Baharu untuk Pengecasan Meja dan Meja Malam

Dengan pengecas Qi2 yang semakin meningkat di pasaran, baru-baru ini saya telah meluangkan sedikit masa untuk menguji dua pengecas desktop 3-dalam-1 "gaya pokok" serupa daripada Anker dan Belkin. Pengecas 3-dalam-1 seperti ini, yang mampu mengecas iPhone, dan Apple Watch, dan peranti lain seperti AirPods, semuanya secara wayarles, telah menjadi gaya pengecas di sisi katil saya sejak pengenalan MagSafe dan sangat popular dengan pengguna secara umum, jadi saya fikir adalah berbaloi untuk melihat prestasi beberapa pilihan terkini.

Kedua-dua Anker Stesen Pengecasan Wayarles MagGo (Pendirian 3-dalam-1) dan Pendirian Pengecasan Wayarles Magnetik Belkin BoostCharge Pro 3-dalam-1 dengan Qi2 15W menawarkan sokongan pengecasan telefon Qi2 15 watt yang setara dengan MagSafe tanpa memerlukan lesen atau sumber komponen daripada Apple, manakala pucks pengecasan pantas rasmi digunakan untuk memastikan prestasi pengecasan Apple Watch maksimum. Asas setiap model termasuk tempat pengecasan Qi 5-watt standard, yang banyak untuk mengecas mana-mana model AirPods yang termasuk sarung pengecasan wayarles. Kedua-dua model Anker dan Belkin tersedia dalam warna hitam atau putih dengan kabel padanan warna dan penyesuai kuasa. Anker menggunakan kabel USB-C ke USB-C standard manakala Belkin menggunakan kabel tetap yang berakhir dengan penyambung USB-C, jadi itu berpotensi untuk dipertimbangkan satu cara atau yang lain sama ada untuk estetika atau jangka hayat produk.

Walaupun kedua-dua pengecas menggunakan tapak yang agak berat untuk kestabilan dan sebagai tempat pengecasan AirPods, "batang dan dahan" mereka dengan pad pengecasan tinggi untuk iPhone dan Apple Watch berbeza sedikit dalam reka bentuk, dengan model Belkin menggunakan utama bersudut hadapan sokongan di atasnya dengan bar mendatar tunggal dengan pad pengecas telefon pada satu hujung dan pengecas Apple Watch di hujung yang lain, manakala model Anker menggunakan batang menegak mengimbangi dengan telefon yang berasingan dan pad pengecasan Apple Watch pada ketinggian yang berbeza. Reka bentuk Anker menghasilkan profil keseluruhan yang sedikit lebih sempit dengan iPhone dan Apple Watch dipasang pada pengecas, tetapi Apple Watch boleh berakhir agak tersembunyi di belakang telefon dalam konfigurasi tertentu seperti telefon dalam mod Siap Sedia landskap.

Tapak pada model Belkin adalah semacam timbunan rata dengan lekukan kecil untuk membantu membimbing AirPod anda ke tempat pengecasan yang betul, manakala tapak Anker lebih seperti piring dengan rim kecil mengelilingi bahagian atas rata. Tempat pengecasan AirPods ialah komponen berasingan yang tertanam pada permukaan tapak dan ia diperbuat daripada bahan yang sedikit berbeza, jadi anda boleh melihat garis besar pengecas untuk membantu membimbing penempatan, serta terdapat logo Qi kelabu muda di tengah-tengah tempat mengecas. Kedua-dua model tidak menawarkan magnet di tempat pengecasan ini untuk membantu menjadikan penempatan yang betul lebih mudah.

Secara keseluruhan, reka bentuk Belkin menawarkan kestabilan yang lebih ketara untuk telefon yang dipasang mengikut pengalaman saya, seperti mengetik telefon atau menjana getaran pada permukaan meja akan menyebabkan telefon menggoyangkan jumlah yang saksama semasa menggunakan pengecas Anker, tetapi ia kekal hampir stabil semasa menggunakan pengecas Belkin. Jika anda bercadang untuk menggunakan salah satu pengecas ini di atas meja atau situasi lain di mana anda akan berinteraksi dengan telefon semasa ia dicas, perbezaan ini sahaja sudah cukup untuk mempertikaikan Belkin pada pendapat saya, kerana jumlah goyangan pada pengecas Anker adalah penting.

Looking at the Qi2 phone charging pad itself, the Belkin version has the advantage of an adjustable angle anywhere between fully vertical and fully horizontal, letting you position it however you prefer. The phone pad on the Anker model is at a fixed angle that should work for most people, but the option of adjustments on the Belkin model is a nice feature. The Belkin phone charger also has an understated look with a plain black or white surface matching the base, while the Anker Qi2 charging surface is white on both the black and white model and it has Qi2 branding and "Wireless Power IQ" text on it that makes for a less clean look.

Both chargers were able to take an iPhone 15 Pro Max from 30% to ~80% in about an hour, pretty much exactly in line with what I see from Apple's official MagSafe charger. The charging rate starts to slow significantly beyond that to prevent overheating and overcharging, with all three chargers bringing the phone to around 95% after 90 minutes.

When it comes to the Apple Watch charging puck, the Anker and Belkin units are essentially identical, which makes sense considering these parts are sourced from Apple. On both models, the puck itself is white on both black and white color options. I'd love to see some other puck color options from Apple to help third-party manufacturers offer more flexibility in their own color offerings.

Given that these are official Apple Watch modules, they both suffer from one of the common issues some users have complained about with Apple Watch chargers, and that's the fact that the watch has a tendency to rotate while on the charger. While the watch attaches to the charger magnetically, there's nothing offering any rotational stability, so the weight of the watch or band can result in the watch twisting a bit while on the charger.

To its credit, Anker has tried to address this by including a sheet of round stickers that can be placed on the surface of the charging puck to increase friction and reduce the watch's tendency to rotate. This solution does work pretty well, but the sticker is a bit of an eyesore with a tab to facilitate removal hanging over the edge of the puck and a plus-shaped cut in the center of the sticker to allow it to conform to the slightly concave surface of the puck.

The tree-style designs of these chargers means neither one supports Nightstand Mode for the Apple Watch, as the support arms for the chargers get in the way of the band when trying to turn the watch horizontally, and even if they didn't, the weight of the band would cause the watch to rotate back to nearly vertical. This may not be a deal-breaker for many users, especially with the iPhone now offering its own landscape StandBy mode, but it's worth noting.

Both the Belkin and Anker models support Apple Watch fast charging, and I saw very similar charging speeds taking an Apple Watch Ultra 2 from 20% to 80% in under an hour, in line with what Apple's first-party fast charging cable delivers.

One significant factor in favor of the Anker MagGo Wireless Charging Station (3-in-1 Stand) (also available at Amazon) is pricing, with a regular price of $99.99 compared to the Belkin BoostCharge Pro 3-in-1 Magnetic Wireless Charging Stand with Qi2 15W (also available at Amazon) at a regular price of $149.99.

Both brands do occasionally offer sales, with Belkin running a Summer Travel Sale on its own site at the time of this writing that can save you some money. With a regular price of $149.99, the BoostCharge Pro qualifies for a $25 discount on its own, but if you throw in a cheap cable or other accessory to bump above the $150 level, you can save an additional $20 on your total purchase.

Both of these chargers are solid options for a desk or nightstand, as they allow you to charge multiple devices from Apple's ecosystem all in one spot with simple and convenient designs. I tend to prefer the overall design and functionality of the Belkin one, but the Anker one wins out on price, so it's definitely worth weighing those factors when making any purchasing decisions.

It's important to note that neither of these tree-style chargers folds up or disassembles, and as a result they both arrive in relatively large boxes, so these chargers are not very practical for travel. If it's important to be able to take your 3-in-1 charger with you, consider a more compact option such as the popular Anker 3-in-1 Cube or Anker Qi2 MagGo Foldable Charging Station.
