The modular 4-in-1 charging stand is one of the new Zens charging accessories. I outlined my first impressions after getting my hands on the stand.
The fast charging speeds for Apple devices are delivered by the stand. Fast charging for the Apple Watch Series 7, Series 8, and Ultra can be achieved with the help of the Apple Watch magnetic puck extension, which allows the Apple Watch models to be charged from zero to 80% in less than 45 minutes. The right side of the stand has a 30WUSB-C port that can be used to charge any iPad or MacBook Air at the fastest speeds. All charges were as advertised.
The MagSafe and Apple Watch charging puck are both certified by Apple, and the stand being sold on Apple's online store is an additional stamp of approval from the company, so customers should feel confident buying this accessory.
The Apple Watch charging puck can be attached to the main charging station for the iPhone, iPad, and AirPods and share the same 65W power adapter. There are two magnetic pins that can be used to attach other parts to the Zens website. There are different viewing angles for the MagSafe charge.
There is a white light on the back of the charging station when the pads are charging. It would have been great if the indicator was on the front of the stand so that it was easy to see.
The cost of the stand on Apple's online store in the US makes it an expensive luxury. I don't know of any other four-device charging stands with an Apple-certified MagSafe charger and a fast-charging Apple Watch puck, with other options limited to three devices.
Zens claims that the stand is made with recycled plastic. The speckled design of the stand makes it look a bit dusty, but it isn't a big deal for some people.
The Zens modular 4-in-1 charging stand is a great accessory for people who want a fast charging hub for their Apple devices. The stand will be delivered in early December.
Macrumors received a charging stand for testing. There was no other compensation given.
