Scosche MagicMount series brings MagSafe charging to your car

MagSafe MagicMount series by Scosche

The new Scosche iPhone car mounts integrate an Apple MagSafe Charger into classic mounting systems.

The MagSafe MagicMount series of chargers do not include Apple's MagSafe Charger, but does come bundled with a 20W USB-C car adapter. The MagSafe Charger slips into the mount and allows simple magnetic attachment of any iPhone 12 model.

Scosche announced three models: a Window/Dash mount, a cup holder mount, and a 4-in-1 kit. The first two are standard mounts without any flashy features.

The 4-in-1 kit has a Swing-Arm Dash and Vent mount and Lock-Nut Vent and Dash mount. This enables more control over where the MagSafe Charger is positioned and securely holds it in place.

The 20W USB-C Power Delivery Car adapter ensures full 12W MagSafe charging when in use.

The MagSafe MagicMount series ranges in prices from $29.99 to $39.99. Availability and release were not announced.

How secure is this thing? Does it rely on the puck magnet to hold the phone in place?

I think that’s what you’re looking for. Apologies if I misunderstood.

Based off the images, it appears that it solely depends on the MagSafe Magnet to keep your phone in place

Things like these will sell well this year—at least in Virginia. Since January 1 it’s been illegal to hold a phone while driving in the commonwealth.

Partially. I haven't actually used a MagSafe puck yet so I don't know how strong the connection is. But I am curious to know if it holds securely enough to stay attached to the charger on bumpy roads--especially on a 12 MAX with a case.
