Scosche details new MagicMount Pro Qi Chargers and a premium line of mounts

Scosche has announced a new line of iPhone-focused Qi wireless charging accessories today at CES 2018. Each of these new products belongs to the MagicMount Pro line that includes solutions for desks, cars, night stands and more.

Scosche’s new line include four different mounts, which are designed for just about any scenario that you might want to charge an iPhone. Guaranteeing “the quickest charge possible”, Scosche supports 5W and 10W wireless power transfer. There’s not exact confirmation at this time on 7.5W, which the latest iPhones use.

Each Magic Pro mount includes an AC or DC power adapter, two MagicPLATE 3M mounts and a microUSB charging cable. The Window/Dash mount comes with an extra long cable that can be tucked into the trim of your car for a more sleek setup.

Along with today’s three new mounts, is the Qi Dock Powerbank that blends traditional portable power with the industry’s most popular wireless charging solution.

Scosche is also unveiling a new lineup of premium mounts that are wrapped in a metal alloy casing. The Elite line lacks any wireless charging capabilities, but offers a more visually appealing look that Apple users in particular should find attractive.

There’s no word on pricing for any of today’s announcements at this time, but we do know that Scosche’s latest products will hit virtual shelves later this spring. Its previously released products lead us to believe that you can expect to pay between $30-$50 for these new offerings.
