The magnet holds the phone well both without a case and in cases with MagSafe support. Due to the rather weighty base, you can not hold the docking station when you remove the phone from charging. Has some pros: The charger puts out 15 watts, just like Apple's original MagSafe. The kit comes with a power supply. And, of course, Belkin design and quality :) Cons below: There is no way to charge Apple Watch, but Belkin has a more advanced station for 3 devices for this
