When to Choose Twelve South ButterFly SE 2-in-1
Travelers who want the most compact MagSafe + Apple Watch charger possible
The Twelve South ButterFly SE is the ultimate travel wireless charger. Its butterfly-fold design is unmatched for portability, and the vegan leather finish is gorgeous. The 2-device limitation and 15W speed are acceptable trade-offs for the best travel charger available.
Strengths
- Ultra-compact butterfly design folds flat for travel
- Premium vegan leather finish and magnetic closure
- MFi-certified Apple Watch charging built in
- Smallest travel footprint of any multi-device charger tested
Limitations
- 2-in-1 only — no dedicated AirPods charging spot
- 15W Qi2 charging speed trails faster alternatives
- $100 is expensive for a 2-device charger
When to Choose Anker Zolo Magnetic Wireless Charger
Budget buyers who want a certified Qi2 charger at the absolute lowest price
The Anker Zolo is the entry point for Qi2 wireless charging. At $16, it's hard to argue with certified 15W Qi2 speed from a trusted brand. Don't expect premium features, but for basic magnetic wireless charging, it gets the job done.
Strengths
- Cheapest Qi2 charger in our roundup at just $16
- Full Qi2 15W certification — not a slower Qi1 pad
- Compact, pocketable size ideal for travel
- Trusted Anker brand with solid warranty
Limitations
- 15W Qi2 speed — no Qi2.2 25W fast charging
- Single device only — no multi-device capability
- Basic plastic build feels budget
