Do you mean a Qi2 (the new magnetic wireless charging standard used by iPhone 15/16/17 and recent Pixel phones) charger? If so, here are the top picks in Australia right now, by use case — with pros, cons and sources so you can compare prices/availability locally.
Best overall (desktop/bedside): Belkin BoostCharge Pro 3‑in‑1 Wireless Charging Stand (Qi2, 15W)
- Why: Qi2-certified, strong magnetic alignment for iPhone/MagSafe cases, charges phone + AirPods + Watch simultaneously, comes with warranty and Connected Equipment Warranty in Australia. Good reliability and labelled 15W Qi2 fast charge. (Belkin.com)
- Downsides: Larger/pricey compared with single‑device pads; some user reviews note durability variance.
Best single‑device pad (compact, reliable): Anker MagGo Wireless Charger (Qi2 pad)
- Why: Qi2 certified, strong magnets, smaller footprint, good safety features (Anker ActiveShield) and widely sold in AU. Simple, practical choice for a bedside or office pad. (Anker.com)
- Downsides: Fewer extras (no multi‑device tray).
Best portable/magnet power bank: Anker MagGo Power Bank (10,000 mAh) or Belkin BoostCharge Pro Magnetic Power Bank (5k/8k/10k)
- Why: Both combine Qi2 magnetic alignment with battery pack convenience (portable Qi2 charging up to 15W on compatible phones) — handy for travel. Belkin lists Australian models and compatibility; Anker’s MagGo line is sold locally. (androidpolice.com)
- Downsides: Magnetic alignment reduces when using thick cases; wireless output is usually slower than wired PD output.
Best for car: Peak Design / Belkin Qi2 magnetic car mounts
- Why: Car mounts with Qi2 deliver magnetic alignment and Qi2 charging while driving; Peak Design and Belkin offer dedicated car mounts compatible with MagSafe/Qi2. Useful if you want one device to attach and charge securely in-car. (androidpolice.com)
- Downsides: Performance depends on phone model, mount type (vent vs dash) and vehicle vibration.
Best budget/simple option: Amegat MagFusion Aura (small Qi2 pad)
- Why: Very affordable, ultra‑portable and recommended in recent roundups as a good entry‑level Qi2 pad. Good if you just want a cheap magnetic pad. (androidpolice.com)
- Downsides: Fewer features and potentially slower charging vs premium pads.
Notes and buying tips (Australia)
- Qi2 vs MagSafe: Qi2 is the evolving cross‑platform standard (MagSafe-compatible magnets + updated communication). If you have an iPhone 12+ with MagSafe or iPhone 15/16/17, Qi2 chargers will work best. Some Android phones now support Qi2 too — check the phone’s spec page. (Belkin.com)
- Wattage: “Qi2 15W” is the common fast wireless spec for phones that support it; real speeds vary by phone and case thickness. (Belkin.com)
- Safety & warranty: Buy from reputable brands (Belkin, Anker, Peak Design) sold through official AU stores or authorised retailers to keep warranty/recalls manageable. There have been recalls in the wireless power space before, so prefer sellers that offer local returns/warranty. (theverge.com)
If you tell me which phone you have (model), where you’ll use the charger (desk, bedside, car, travel), and your budget, I can recommend the single best model to buy in Australia and point to local retailers.
