Lastly, a magnetic stand that wirelessly expenses your M4 iPad Professional

Kuxiu has simply debuted its brand-new X33 Professional MAX Magnetic Charging Stand—sure, it’s a mouthful. I’ve been ready for a product like this to be launched since I picked up the 2018 iPad Professional six years in the past. Different corporations have tried comparable merchandise over time, however there was at all times a sacrifice that needed to be made with the intention to cost your iPad wirelessly. Most earlier options required an iPad case that may block the principle USB-C port, making it unusable whereas charging. Kuxiu is giving us the first-ever frictionless magnetic iPad charging stand, which lives as much as the hype.

I’ve been utilizing Kuxiu merchandise for years now, from their 3-in-1 journey chargers to their growth mic arms and iPad stands. However they’ve simply blown me away with their new magnetic iPad charging stand line: the X33 Professional MAX, the X36 Professional MAX, and the X44 Professional MAX. On this hands-on evaluation, we are going to deal with the X33 mannequin, however all three have the identical key promoting factors and nice construct high quality, simply in numerous type elements.

This product’s core comes from the X33 Magnetic Stand, which I’ve used earlier than. It’s an iPad stand that you just mount your iPad on through magnets. It might rotate a full 360 levels, affords virtually limitless viewing angles, has extremely sturdy magnets, and is simply constructed extraordinarily effectively. The brand new Professional MAX model added magic pin connectors on the magnetic plate and a USB-C port on the rear. So now, everytime you connect your iPad to the brand new X33 Professional MAX, it immediately begins to cost whereas leaving your ultra-fast Thunderbolt port open and obtainable.

X33 Professional MAX specs:

• Manufactured from CNC aluminum alloy
• Rotates 360 levels vertically
• Rotates 180 levels horizontally
• Folds flat when not in use
• Pin connectors permit for as much as 18W quick charging for iPad
• Immediately begins charging

Please understand that that is just for energy passthrough. It doesn’t help any kind of information passthrough. Nevertheless, as I discussed above, it leaves the Thunderbolt port open and prepared to be used.

My expertise

I’ve solely had this product for a couple of days, however as you’ll be able to inform, I’m very enthusiastic about it. My predominant concern was whether or not it might produce loads of warmth whereas charging. I’ve had my M1 iPad Professional on this stand for hours, and I’ve not felt it get heat in any respect. It has charged from 10% to 100% with ease. This has additionally opened up the power to have a way more modular productiveness circulation with the iPad. Having the ability to shortly change from desktop mode to cell mode by simply popping the iPad on and off when wanted provides an ideal layer of modularity that we didn’t have earlier than.

Pricing and availability

Kuxiu’s complete line of latest iPad charging stands is out there as we speak. We targeted on the X33, which is the extra typical kind of iPad stand type issue. However as I discussed, additionally they have the X36, which rests on a growth arm, and the X44, which has a rotating base for much more flexibility.
