Product Information

Automatically connects: simply place your phone on Easy Touch Speaker and it will instantly and automatically connect. The wireless charger is plugged into the wall and the electricity from there is converted into a high-frequency alternating current, which creates a magnetic field within the transmitter coil underneath the charging plate. To assess a wireless charger, we connect it to a test iPhone or Android smartphone and record the battery percentage increase from zero following 30 minutes of charging. The actual science is a bit more complex, but, in essence, it uses electromagnetic fields to move power from the pad to the phone based on magnetic resonance. Sometimes it can be a little annoying to line up your phone on a wireless charger to get it to "catch" the charge, but not so with Apple's MagSafe wireless charging capability. These chargers are made with magnets that pull the phone perfectly into place. An Apple MagSafe charger also allows for safe, fast charging of Apple devices — a huge advantage over standard Qi-compatible chargers. The only downside is you'll need to buy a compatible MagSafe case, and you won’t be able to use standard Qi chargers when that case is on your phone. What is the best wireless charger?

The strong magnetic mount at the top makes for a secure connection with your iPhone 12, delivering 15W of charge, but there’s also a bowl-shaped mount on the base (not magnetic) which can be used to wireless charge your AirPods Pro headphones or any other Qi-compatible device. It looks the part, does the job nicely, and is an ideal choice if you often need to top up more than one device at a time.

For you as a user, incredibly simply. Place your phone on the charger and, hey presto, your phone begins to charge. No wires required. Generally speaking, the higher the wattage the faster the charge, though the difference isn’t always as dramatic as you might expect. A 15W charger won’t necessarily charge your phone in a third of the time that a 5W charger would normally take. Pad or stand? Many wireless charging pads are also able to charge earbuds and Airpods. Smartwatches like the Apple Watch and Samsung Galaxy Watch can be charged wirelessly as well, but the wireless charger will often need to include a special holder to hang the watch for a proper charge. If you use a protective or even just decorative case on your phone, you may be wondering if that will prohibit you from using a wireless charger. In most cases, you should be good, but the thinner the case, the better. How does a wireless charger work? With its 35mm full range driver and 2x 70mm woofer configuration, the Belkin SoundForm Elite makes quite a startling first impression. For a small speaker, with a form factor best suited for a bedside table thanks to its charging support, this thing goes REALLY loud. You’ll wonder where all that oomph is coming from. When a device is put on the pad, the magnetic field spreads to the device’s receiver coil, where energy is converted into a direct current that flows into the battery charging it.

In a few years' time, fumbling around with messy cords and plugging your device into the wall charger will seem archaic. Honestly, it might even seem strange now, at least in the eyes of people who've completely adopted wireless charging tech. However, the good news is that wireless chargers have got faster over the last few years. The first Qi standard wireless chargers delivered power at a maximum 5W, which meant they were pretty slow, but in 2015 the Wireless Power Consortium – the industry body responsible for wireless charger standards – introduced the Qi Extended Power Profile standard, which allowed chargers and phones to go up to 15W. If that was all over your head, just go with the simpler answer: magic.) Is wireless charging as fast as using a wired plug?Loud and clear: enjoy full-bodied audio with no tinniness whatever the volume, whether you're on the phone or watching a video or playing music for a party! Most wireless chargers have universal compatibility (often referred to as a Qi-compatible device or “Qi-certified”) for iPhone and Android smartphones. This means that everyone in your household should be able to use one wireless charging station for their devices as needed. Plus, when you have guests over and they need to power up, you can just direct them to the nearest wireless charger. Wireless charger: when plugged into a power source the Easy Touch Speaker wirelessly charges your device while amplifying sound. (Device must be wireless charging compatible)
