Should you do not thoughts going with a no-name model like ZeeHoo, its wi-fi automobile charger has many of the options you need for cellphone charging, together with autoclamping, a safe suction cup that may be put in in your automobile’s air vent, windshield or dashboard. It has USB-C and as much as 15-watt quick charging for Android telephones that assist it (iPhones are capped at 7.5-watt charging). This upgraded model has a sleeker design than the unique (see under) and it prices about $20 lower than the iOttie above. Nevertheless, this wi-fi charger would not include a cigarette lighter adapter — solely a USB-C cable.

This wi-fi automobile mount charger is without doubt one of the extra fashionable generic wi-fi automobile chargers with an autosensing telescopic arm, and the unique model I attempted labored nicely total, attaching securely to my automobile vent mount and giving my smartphone or QI enabled gadget a fast cost.

Notice that to get quick charging, you will want an influence adapter that helps it (not included).

If you don’t need wi-fi charging or arms or a mount with arms that open routinely, iOttie’s tried and true Straightforward One Contact 5 is a stable mount for slightly below $25. You may decide up the first-gen model of the mount for $17, however this improved mannequin has a telescoping arm.  

Belkin’s Car Vent Mount Professional with MagSafe technically is not a charger. It is only a licensed MagSafe vent mount. Belkin additionally has a wi-fi charging model of this (it prices $41 with out the automobile charger, $60 with it), however you’d have to attach a cable to it anyway for charging. The benefit of a wi-fi model can be that in contrast to with this vent mount, you would not must plug a cable into your cellphone each time you need to cost it. I’ve a USB-C-to-Lightning cable arrange within the automobile for quick charging, however I do not love the additional step of getting to plug within the cable every time I need to cost the cellphone.

All that mentioned, what units this Belkin aside from different generic, non-MagSafe-certified mounts that look related (and a few even supply wi-fi charging), is that the Belkin has a powerful magnet whereas many of those different vent mounts do not. If in case you have a MagSafe case in your cellphone, or only a bare newer iPhone mannequin, the cellphone actually sticks to the mount. The clip additionally retains the mount securely in your vent and you may rotate the mount from portrait to panorama mode as wanted.

I used the Scosche Magic Mount Professional 2 for a few weeks and it is bought a powerful magnet (I’ve an iPhone 14 Professional with a MagSafe case) and the swing-arm permits for some good flexibility so far as positioning your cellphone goes. Notice that this is not a wi-fi automobile mount, so you will must plug a cable into your cellphone. The primary benefit it has over different magnetic automobile mounts is the arm design. I take advantage of the car-vent possibility however you’ll be able to mount it on a dashboard. Most individuals will use the air-vent possibility, although.

I put in this cellphone holder  in my automobile as a result of I did not need to have something sticking up from my dashboard after I wasn’t utilizing the holder. It is bought a clamshell design and also you simply open the highest lid and set your cellphone inside. It’s also possible to prop your cellphone up vertically if you’d like, however I primarily preserve my cellphone sitting horizontally within the holder. The bottom swivels, which is good.

Notice that you just do want a flat dashboard to mount this. It sticks to your dashboard or any flat floor. 

Belkin makes a MagSafe car-vent mount that prices round $40 (see above), in addition to the BoostCharge Professional ($100), which is Apple-certified and wirelessly fees iPhones at as much as 15 watts. And whereas this mannequin — the Belkin BoostCharge Magnetic Wi-fi Car Charger — solely fees iPhones at as much as 10 watts, it is extra reasonably priced at round $60. Its USB-C cable is detachable (it is built-in on BoostCharge Professional) and also you get a 20-watt cigarette-lighter energy adapter. I personally like a automobile energy adapter with two USB-C ports so a passenger can plug in a cable and in addition cost his or her cellphone, however you’ll be able to all the time decide so as to add that later. 

Should you’ve already bought Apple’s MagSafe wi-fi charging puck, this Spigen mounting accent is an efficient possibility for bringing it into your automobile. As I mentioned, the MagSafe wi-fi charger is not included. Neither is a USB-C cigarette lighter adapter. However at $18, this can be a pretty reasonably priced magnetic mounting accent.

Notice: Be certain that to make use of the fitting cigarette lighter adapter to get the utmost 15-watt charging speeds. Additionally, since this depends on the magnets from the wi-fi charging puck for your cellphone to stay to it (MagSafe case required in case you are utilizing a case) this is not advisable for the bigger iPhone 13 Max Professional or bigger iPhone 14 fashions because it’s extra more likely to slip off the mount — particularly when you hit a bump — due to its weight. 

Some folks like cup holder cellphone mounts, however remember that they’re going to take up house in considered one of your cup holders. Whereas it is fairly generic, the Tecknet is an efficient worth when you’re trying for such a mount, which has a versatile gooseneck so you’ll be able to higher place your cellphone for viewing. It additionally comes with a car-vent mount and has a one-touch launch mechanism. 

OK, so this is not a wi-fi charger, however a whole lot of the wi-fi automobile chargers on this listing do not embody a cigarette-lighter energy adapter, so I assumed I would throw this on the listing on the finish. I initially had an Aukey energy adapter on this listing, however it’s out of inventory and this low-profile Ainope mini quick USB Car Charger presents even quicker charging (up 24 watts) and prices much less. It has each a USB-C and USB-A port so you’ll be able to cost two gadgets on the identical time, however to get 15-watt wi-fi charging you are going to be higher off charging one gadget. 

Notice that to get the quickest wired charging for iPhones, you will want to make use of a USB-C to Lightning cable. That cable will not be included.
