Anker 3-in-1 Cube with MagSafe Review: It’s the Perfect iPhone Accessory

The Lowdown

The fact that the Anker 3-in-1 Cube with MagSafe is so small on my nightstand but has enough weight to stay where it is when I pull my phone off the MagSafe charger is impressive. I love that it folds up so small that I can toss it in my travel bag and fast charge all of my devices.

Overall

Pros

  • Small and lightweight but still heavy enough to withstand pulling on the MagSafe
  • Folds up small for travel
  • Charges all the latest Apple devices at the fastest possible speeds

Cons

Anker has been a trusted name in mobile accessories for a long time, and it’s well deserved. Their budget-friendly charging accessories have been a staple in my travel bag, and the Anker 3-in-1 Cube with MagSafe adds to the convenience. Wirelessly charging iPhones, Apple Watches, and Airpods in a compact, travel-ready size, the Cube is worth the hype.

Weighing in at 0.68 pounds and measuring about 2.5″ tall by 2.3″ wide by 2.3″ deep, the Anker 3-in-1 Cube with MagSafe is the ultimate combination of a nightstand charging station and travel charger.

It takes up so little space on my nightstand, and it’s so small and light that it’s easy to toss in my travel bag if I need to travel. It wirelessly charges my iPhone, Apple Watch, and Airpods and could not be more convenient.

Using ultra-fast 15W charging, it can charge your latest generation of iPhones using Apple MagSafe at the highest possible speed. The MagSafe charging pad is adjustable up to 60 degrees, so you can adjust your viewing angle or switch from portrait mode to landscape mode, whatever your heart desires; thanks to MagSafe, your phone will always be secured to the charger.

Another thing I love about the Anker 3-in-1 Cube with MagSafe is that its base has enough weight to keep it in place while taking your phone off.

As with any other MagSafe charger, if you have a case on your phone, it must be a MagSafe-compatible case. Otherwise, your phone will not adhere to the charger and will not charge.

The hide-away watch charging module charges all series of Apple Watches from 1 to 9 and fast-charges series 7-9 and the Ultras. The 3-in-1 Cube comes with a 30W charger and 5 ft USB-C to USC-C cable, so you’ve got everything you need to go right out of the box.

While I don’t have AirPods (I always drop or lose them), I love having a charging station for my iPhone and Apple Watch, and the Anker 3-in-1 Cube with MagSafe has been a massive upgrade.

The fact that the Anker 3-in-1 Cube with MagSafe is so small on my nightstand but has enough weight to stay where it is when I pull my phone off the MagSafe charger is impressive. I love that it folds up so small that I can toss it in my travel bag and fast charge all of my devices. I now understand why it went viral on TikTok, with everyone talking about it.

When all your devices need to be charged nightly, the Anker 3-in-1 Cube with MagSafe is the perfect accessory.

My biggest complaint? IT’S NOT AN ACTUAL CUBE! It’s 0.2 inches off. Let’s fix that in the second generation, okay, Anker? 😉

The Anker 3-in-1 Cube with MagSafe sells for $149.95; it is available directly from the manufacturer and other retailers, including Amazon.

  1. This is a remarkable design. I had to see your photos to understand how something that small could charge both an iPhone and Apple Watch (and not tip over.)
