OnePlus has introduced its new wireless charger, AIRVOOC 50W Magnetic Charger, designed for the OnePlus 13 and compatible with other Qi charging standards. The charger features a magnetic attachment method and a prominent cooling system to keep the charging process stable and fast. However, it comes with a premium price tag of $79/£69, making it an expensive accessory.
In our review, we tested the AIRVOOC 50W Magnetic Charger with both the OnePlus 13 and iPhone 16 Pro Max. We found that the charger initially pulled 70W before stabilizing at 36W, which is slightly faster than promised by OnePlus. The charging time was around 70 minutes for a full charge, beating the 75-minute mark on the store page.
The cooling system performed exceptionally well, keeping the phone cold to the touch even after extended charging sessions. However, we noticed that the charger’s implementation is odd, as it requires additional accessories like magnetic cases and proprietary tech. This makes it less user-friendly than other wireless chargers on the market.
Despite its limitations, the AIRVOOC 50W Magnetic Charger is an effective pairing with the OnePlus 13, especially when purchased directly from OnePlus at a discounted price. As the open Qi2 standard gains traction, we expect to see more compatible chargers and easier usage across different brands.
For those considering buying a OnePlus 13, this wireless charger is worth exploring, particularly for its cooling capabilities that can be beneficial for iPhone users who tend to overheat during charging. However, potential buyers should be aware of the additional costs associated with using it properly.
