Charging our devices is something of utmost importance and has a direct impact on how we use them. We are talking about speed, convenience, battery protection during the process, but also about how we connect our devices to the current. Cable? MagSafe? Several options that could have accommodated another.
Without losing sight of the cancellation of AirPower, the MagSafe system prevails and reaches all our devices. While initially only used to charge the iPhone, it now also charges our AirPods and even power banks for our phones. And at Apple they continued propose ways to make this system even more versatile
A charger with the most particular design
This is where the new images that the Twitter user enters TheBlueMister posted. pictures that then danruithe well-known leaker, also shared and that they show us a prototype of a new MagSafe charging accessory. We say “new” because it’s never been released, but everything seems to indicate that it won’t.
As we can see in the photos, we are dealing with a rounded rectangle in anodized aluminum with a central MagSafe that has the ability to stand. A design that we It’s very reminiscent of the first Apple Watch chargernow discontinued, which comes with a braided charging cable.
Al restore the accessory to make it workTheBlueMister discovered that the name of the accessory is Apple Magic Charger. A charger that was already in the DVT phase, but seems to have been discontinued. And the main reason is related to the way of charging the devices that we place there. There are two possibilities.
Do you have any sense such a charger?
The first possibility, looking at the design, is that Apple was consider making the Apple Watch rechargeable with the MagSafe system
The second possibility is that Apple will provide a table clock mode for the iPhone. Something similar to what Apple Watch already offers us and which allows us to see the time while charging, and it’s really useful to have it on our bedside table. By placing the iPhone horizontally and lifting the MagSafe system, we could have another way of charging the iPhone that would make sense of this particular accessory.
To our knowledge, this accessory has been cancelled. If we have to see it again in the future, it’s something we don’t know completely, but it’s possible. Besides its own design, the most interesting thing about this Magic Charger is that Apple continues to look for ways to improve charging systems of our devices, something that is always welcome.
