The MagSafe-compatible Qi2.2 charger folds up super compact for travel and unfurls into a \u201cZ\u201d to simultaneously charge an Apple Watch, AirPods, or other Qi-enabled earbuds, and a Qi2 25W phone like the new Pixel 10 Pro XL and iPhone 17 series \u2014 all from a single USB-C cable.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/kuxiu.co\/products\/kuxiu-x40-turbo-stand\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">$79.99 \/ \u20ac68.95 X40 Turbo<\/a> charging stand supports the new Qi2.2 standard (aka, Qi2 25W), so it can wirelessly charge compatible devices at a maximum of 25W, up from 15W on last year\u2019s $79.99 model. That price also gets you a 45W USB-C PD charger, carrying case, and cable in the box.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">When I say it\u2019s small, I mean it. The X40 Turbo is 25 percent smaller than its diminutive predecessor, measuring just 64 x 64 x 18mm (2.52 x 2.52 x 0.71 inches) when folded up.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">These 3-in-1 Z-shaped stands are dime-a-dozen on Amazon and Temu, but Kuxiu is a brand I\u2019ve used for a few years and trust. Like the company\u2019s other products I\u2019ve tested, it feels like quality due to the use of aluminum instead of plastic. I don\u2019t have a Qi2.2 phone to test it with, but I have no reason to doubt its support for 25W wireless charging.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">My iPhone 15 Pro only supports Qi2 (15W), which is what I saw it pulling from a power bank as the 16 N52 magnets held the phone tightly to the stand\u2019s soft-touch surface. The spec sheet says it\u2019ll charge a phone at 5W\/7.5W\/10W\/15W\/25W, earbuds at up to 5W, and an Apple Watch at up to 5W.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1ymtmqpi _17nnmdy1 _17nnmdy0 _1xwtict1\">If you\u2019re looking to jump on the wireless Qi2.2 train, own a bunch of Apple gear, and like to travel light, then Kuxiu\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/kuxiu.co\/products\/kuxiu-x40-turbo-stand\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">X40 Turbo<\/a> charging stand should be on your short list. Even if you can\u2019t take advantage of that 25W max charge, you can still benefit from its extreme portability with a little future-proofing baked in.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kuxiu already made my favorite 3-in-1 Qi2 charger, and now it\u2019s back with an even smaller yet more&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":69790,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[74],"tags":[18,282,11764,19,17,1143,753,82,20610],"class_list":{"0":"post-69789","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-technology","8":"tag-eire","9":"tag-gadgets","10":"tag-hands-on","11":"tag-ie","12":"tag-ireland","13":"tag-reviews","14":"tag-tech","15":"tag-technology","16":"tag-usb-c"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69789","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=69789"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69789\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/69790"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=69789"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=69789"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=69789"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
