If you’re upgrading your device to an iPhone 17, you've likely seen the term "MagSafe" tossed around while searching for phone accessories. If you have relied on your trusted iPhone 11 for the last few years, you may be unfamiliar with MagSafe and why it's featured in newer iPhones. Below, we’ll discuss the ins and outs of MagSafe technology and why it’s a key feature in our iPhone cases from LOGiiX. Keep reading to learn more!

What Is MagSafe?

MagSafe is a magnetic technology developed by Apple. It was first released in 2006 for the MacBook series and jump-started the innovation of wireless power transfer and magnetic device accessories. While MagSafe was removed from the MacBook line, it was reintroduced into the iOS series with the iPhone 12.

MagSafe is now a series of magnets on the back of iPhones that form a strong magnetic connection for uninterrupted wireless charging. It is also used as a connecting system for accessories like car mounts, magnetic wallets, battery packs, and (you guessed it) magnetic phone cases.

What Are the Benefits of MagSafe Accessories?

Due to their magnetic connection, MagSafe cases effortlessly attach to compatible devices and offer a more secure hold, keeping your phone safe and unharmed. They also help maintain a more secure attachment to a MagSafe charger or device mount, which offers faster charging times than traditional wall plug-ins. 

The easy attachment for device holders and car mounts offers a simplified hands-free experience, so you can more easily access GPS, switch music, watch film videos, watch movies, or FaceTime with friends and family. 

Rather than finding a wall socket or plug-in for your phone's charging cable (a nuisance while commuting or travelling), you can simply place your device on top of your MagSafe charger. Once they're magnetically aligned, you can watch your battery percentage climb!

Overall, MagSafe accessories' magnetic capabilities provide an easier and more functional user experience for your device! 

Is Switching to MagSafe Worth It?

If you have an iPhone 12 or newer, your device contains MagSafe technology that enables a seamless connection between your device and magnetic accessories. So, is switching from a standard protective case to one with magnetic technology worthwhile? 

Plenty of standard phone cases on the market are high-quality, feature a slim device fit, and have design features like shock absorption to protect your device. These cases are also generally more affordable than MagSafe accessories.

While tried-and-true phone cases have their place, MagSafe cases provide the same benefits while adding a more secure attachment for other accessories. Their built-in magnets also help enhance your phone’s wireless charging experience. 

Whether a MagSafe-compatible phone case is worth it depends on your iPhone model and how you use your device daily. If you enjoy or require accessories like wireless chargers and car mounts, a MagSafe case can be a real asset to your user experience!
