    Thanks for the video! I was looking a a comparison like this one. Please compare these with the Zens “Office Charger Pro 3” and “4-in-1 MagSafe + Watch Wireless Charging Station” these can also compete for the best tree wireless nightstand charging stations.

    Hey Stephen - Thanks for the review. I purchased the 12South HiRise 3 Deluxe last fall based on your initial review. Last winter, unexpectedly, the 15w MagSafe iPhone charger part stopped charging, so I could no longer use StandBy mode which I had become accustomed to. I contacted the company and, because they have a 1 year warranty, they shipped me a brand new unit at no charge to me and let me keep the old unit as well. Great customer service IMHO.

    I remember on a previous podcast you mentioned that only the apple magsafe charger managed to charge your iPhone without it significantly heating up. How do these compare? I’m always afraid of wireless charging heating the battery and decreasing its health prematurely

    The ESR uses a mystery Qi2 module that's not very efficient and heats up.
    Charge performance and heat is very important as that's the primary reason to buy one.
    Satechi has also released 2-in1 and 3-in-1 units.

      It has subtle look that’s perfect for standby mode. If you have AirPod Pros that can charge on the Apple Watch and MagSafe charger, you don’t really need more than the 2-in-1.

    I got the Anker last month on sale for $80 with a free extra USB-C cable (they offer 12% first orders on their website with free shipping). The phone blocking part of the watch when in landscape doesn't bother me, but the slippery watch charger does and the sticker didn't really make a difference for me. I've gotten used to just placing the watch straight and adjusting it if necessary. I also like the bigger base, which makes it less likely to move around when I remove the phone. I found the Belkin just too wide and expensive for me

      I’ve found they all charge between 11-14W consistently. If charging for a two hour period your iPhone will basically charge the same amount regardless of which stand you use.

    If you’re only charging Apple devices, MagSafe is better than Qi2, so that’s not really a drawback on the HiRise.
