When it comes to Apple stocking stuffers, options are relatively limited. There are cases and AirTags and even some Apple Pencil accessories, but perhaps the best of all, especially for the iPhone 16 users on your list, is the new 25W Apple MagSafe Charger. You can now score the 1-meter model down at $29.99 or the 2-meter model at $34.99 with free shipping for Prime members or in orders over $35 at Amazon. While the shorter of the two lands within $5 of the all-time low the 2-meter model is within $2 of the lowest price we have tracked on Amazon, and the $33 offer only lasted for a few hours.
For those unfamiliar here, Apple quietly unleashed the next-generation of its MagSafe Charger alongside the iPhone 16 back in September. As of right now, it is the fastest MagSafe wireless charger for iPhone 16 on the market. While it will deliver the same 15W of juice as the previous-gen model (and just about every other MagSafe charger out there these days) to iPhone 12 through 15, it takes things up a notch when it comes to iPhone 16 with a max 25W charging output.
Apple says it can deliver up to 50% battery in around “30 minutes for iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro when paired with the 30W USB‑C Power Adapter (sold separately).”
It lands with a familiar form-factor, sporting a magnetic charging pad on one end with a connected woven cable extension that terminates on the other end with a USB-C connector.
iPhone 16 can handle 45W of juice over a USB-C cable – all of your favorite chargers to make this happen have been collected for you right here – and everything you need to know about the new 25W MagSafe action can be found in our feature piece here.
