Mophie announces snap line of MagSafe compatible wireless charging accessories

Mophie has announced a new suite of wireless charging accessories. The mophie snap product line is an ecosystem of accessories designed to 

be compatible with MagSafe for iPhone 12 models.

The accessories also deliver the same magnetic mounting and wireless charging experience to any Qi-enabled smartphone, including Samsung, Google Pixel, and more. 

Apple says that MagSafe “improves wireless charging for a better, more efficient experience and introduces an ecosystem of easy-to-attach accessories that beautifully complement iPhone 12 Pro models.” It features an array of magnets around the wireless charging coil that connect to the iPhone . They provide up to 15W of power while still accommodating existing Qi-enabled devices.

At the heart of Sophie’s new ecosystem of products is an integrated magnetic array. It allows consumers to attach their iPhone 12 or Qi-enabled smartphone to everything from wireless chargers and car vent mounts to portable batteries for power.
