A growing number of iPhone users now own an Apple Watch as well, so the need for combined charging docks that can charge both devices has grown as well. One of the newer entrants into this market is Archeer, which has introduced the 2-in-1 Charging Station for iPhone and Apple Watch ($32.99, affiliate link, use promo code NGL7S5TD at checkout for an additional 20% off).
Function
Archeer supplies a small screwdriver and extra screws so installing the Apple Watch charger isn’t a hassle. Once everything is installed, there’s just one cable extending from the back of the unit that needs to be plugged into a charger block. The Apple Watch charger fits snugly into a cutout in the top of the charging arm, and the cable is hidden behind a removable metal piece.
The aluminum base provides some bulk to keep the charging station from moving, and there are two non-slip pads on the bottom of the 2-in-1 Charging Station to keep it stationary as well.
All in all, the 2-in-1 Charging Station looks good, works as advertised, and requires just a little bit of setup with the included tools. While it only includes one Lightning cable and you must use your own Apple Watch charger with it, that’s common among many of the other dual chargers on the market. The best part? The price tag. It’s $32.99 on Amazon right now, and you can use a special promo code (NGL7S5TD) at Amazon checkout for an additional 20% off.
