Energizer 3-in-1 15W Qi2 MagSafe Charging Stand $20 at Best Buy (60% Off)
- Price: $20 at Best Buy
- Savings: $30 (60%) off the $50 regular price
- Shipping: Free shipping for My Best Buy members (free to join)
- Expires: No end date listed
A three-in-one stand clears up a desk or nightstand by charging your phone, earbuds and Apple Watch from one spot instead of three cables. This Energizer stand charges a Qi2 or MagSafe iPhone at up to 15W, earbuds at 3W and a watch at 2.5W, and the magnets hold the phone in place so it lines up every time; you can stand the phone upright for calls and notifications or turn it sideways to watch video. The body is zinc alloy and ABS. One catch: there is no wall adapter in the box, and you need a 30W USB-C Power Delivery adapter to get full speed. Best Buy has it for $20, down from $50, with free shipping for My Best Buy members (free to sign up).
