Apple has been making wireless charging-enabled iPhones for a while now. That being said, things haven't progressed much since the first model to come with this feature (the iPhone 8). The only improvement that's happened so far is the inclusion of MagSafe, which debuted with the iPhone 12.
All models from the iPhone 13 lineup support a maximum charging speed of 15W with wireless chargers labeled as “made for Magsafe”, and 7.5W with regular Qi wireless chargers.
If you are looking to get your first wireless charger for your iPhone 13 or upgrade from an old one, these are our top recommendations.
Pricing, durability, and compatibility have all been taken into account while picking the wireless chargers in this list.
As mentioned earlier, wireless chargers that are marketed as “made for MagSafe” are the only ones that can support the full wireless charging speed of the iPhone 13. That is why they are—by default—the best you can buy if you are looking for the fastest ones out there.
Apple MagSafe charger
It does not get much simpler, more efficient, and more suitable than the MagSafe charger from Apple. It is lightweight, small, affordable, and offers the full 15W charging speed that the iPhone 13 can handle.
Additionally, Apple's MagSafe charger can also juice up your AirPods! The only downside here is probably the lack of color options.
The MagSafe Duo Charger is a good option if you have an Apple Watch or AirPods alongside your iPhone.

One of the best features of Apple’s MagSafe Duo is its practical design elements. First of all, you can fold it like a wallet, which instantly makes it very travel-friendly. Additionally, one of the sides can either stay flat or go up, depending on how you want to place your Apple Watch.
Keep in mind, though, that when charging two devices simultaneously with a 20-watt USB-C adapter the MagSafe Duo can only deliver 11W of power to each. To get both devices charging at 14W the MagSafe Duo charger has to be paired with a 27-watt or higher USB-C adapter.
Think regular MagSafe wireless charger, but with added convenience.
Belkin has created possibly one of the most beautiful and sleek wireless MagSafe chargers. It can charge your iPhone 13 alongside other devices at the same time, while still taking up very little space on your desk or nightstand.

The new PowerWave from Anker is perfect if you just need a wireless charger for your phone that looks decent and is on the more affordable side.
It is angled perfectly for using Face ID to unlock your iPhone while it is resting on your desk. The tiny blue light that indicates charging status is dim enough if you decide to use the charger next to your bed.
It can be used both in vertical and horizontal orientation so you can watch videos on it while the phone is charging.

The Moshi Otto Q is made to blend in with the rest of the room. It comes with a USB-C cable and supports up to 15W fast charging. It will charge your iPhone 13 at 7.5W.
One of the best bang for your buck non-MagSafe wireless chargers for your iPhone.
It might be obvious, but at the end of the day, if you want to make the most out of your iPhone 13's wireless charging, then picking a charger made for MagSafe devices is the optimal way to go.
If, however, you want to charge other devices that are not from Apple, then a wireless charger like the Moshi Otto Q, for example, is a great bang for your buck choice to go with.
