Volle Power durch kabelloses Laden: Darauf willst Du nie mehr verzichten

Full power through wireless charging: You never want to be without it again

Some manufacturers of Android smartphones have been offering devices that can be charged wirelessly for several years. However, this technology did not really catch on for a long time. For example, the providers often demanded a painful surcharge for the feature. Everything has changed since autumn 2017: Apple, the company that sells more high-end smartphones than any other company, introduced wireless charging for its three latest devices. No matter whether you have an iPhone 8, 8+ or the iPhone X: You no longer need a charging cable! Apple also supports the common QI standard for wireless charging - which makes your life easier in more ways than you think!

You won't want to do without wireless charging anymore


Wireless charging is one of those things that first makes you wonder if you really need it - only to wonder how you ever lived without it! It simply gives your everyday life such a significant gain in comfort. For example, you simply place the charging station right next to your computer, on the coffee table, next to your bed or at your workplace. Then all you have to do is put down your smartphone and it will be charged immediately. People who have started with wireless charging quickly stow the previous charging cables in the closet. These just become superfluous.

POWERBEAM: Wireless charging a big help in the Apple ecosystem


Apple users love the Californian group's products for three reasons: the beautiful design of the offerings, the first-class interaction of software and hardware, and the Apple ecosystem. For example, you wouldn't want to do without the ability to send and receive iMessages via iPhone, iPad, Mac and AppleWatch at the same time. Nowhere is the advantage of the Apple ecosystem so clear as in the interaction of the Smart watch with iPhone. The devices are designed from the ground up so that they can merge into a perfect symbiosis. The AppleWatch offers some great unique selling points and is at the same time the wireless extension of your iPhone.

The downside: Since AppleWatch and iPhone are used together, they usually need to be charged at the same time. If you had to rely on Apple, you would still need a charging cable for your smartwatch. But with POWERBEAM you can let that gather dust in the closet. The charger has two different charging zones, allowing you to charge your iPhone and AppleWatch (all models) at the same time. You have your two most important devices in the Apple ecosystem to hand at all times and can be sure that they are equipped with the necessary power.

POWERBEAM comes from Bluestein. The German company has established itself as a premium accessories brand. You will like the high standards the company places on itself: Bluestein only offers products that meet its own high quality standards. POWERBEAM is an impressive testament to what this means in concrete terms.

POWERBEAM works with MAGSAFE


POWERBEAM offers you an elegant design that is clearly based on the look of Apple products thanks to its clear lines. You can connect the charger to power with USB-C, Micro-USB, and Lightning cables. You can easily use the existing charging cable of your smartphone or Mac to supply POWERBEAM with power.

The coup of the charger, however, is the use of the MAGSAFE concept: So far, it has been very difficult to find wireless charging options for smartwatches because it is difficult to position them precisely on the mats since the watches are very small. POWERBEAM uses the MAGSAFE concept for this. Your AppleWatch is magnetically attracted and practically automatically comes to rest in the right place.

All QI devices are supported by POWERBEAM


However, POWERBEAM not only supports Apple devices, but all devices equipped with the QI standard. The POWERBEAM charging zone for smartphones works with a voltage of five to a maximum of nine volts. The zone for your smartwatch is equipped with a voltage of five volts. For example, if you have an Android device that fits these specs, you can use it without any problems.

Some tips for iPhone users for everyday use


Unfortunately, Apple doesn't allow you to wirelessly charge your iPhone (or AppleWatch) while pairing it with another device via USB. If you own a Mac, AirPlay is a great alternative to the USB connection. For a Windows computer, we recommend Bluetooth. Wireless synchronization also works via iCloud. So you don't have to do without wireless charging of your devices with POWERBEAM.

Apple has also built in a security feature for iPhones. Especially during hot summer days, smartphones can get very warm due to the combination of the sun and the magnetic charge. The iPhone then stops charging at 80 percent to avoid overheating. Many other smartphone manufacturers have a similar system. Your POWERBEAM device will continue to work perfectly - you don't have to worry.

Get undreamt-of comfort in everyday life now


You are probably thinking now that all these words sound very nice, of course, but that things can look very different in everyday life. Let Bluestein convince you. Like all of the company's products, POWERBEAM only came onto the market after it had gone through a long series of product tests and quality assurance measures. POWERBEAM keeps what it promises. Secure your wireless charger now and experience unimagined comfort in everyday life!
