Nomad’s magnetic charging stands now support faster 25W rates
Nomad has announced updated versions of its Stand One and Stand One Max hubs that now support the Qi2.2 standard for faster wireless charging rates of up to 25W when used with compatible smartphones like the Pixel 10 Pro XL and the iPhone 16 and 17 series. As with previous versions, the new Stand One and Stand One Max are made from a mix of glass and CNC-machined aluminum so they’re both sleek and sturdy. A braided USB-C cable is included, but each requires you to supply your own 40W USB-C charger. According to an FAQ on Nomad’s site, the company believes “many people already own multiple power adapters and that providing additional units creates unnecessary waste.”
The new version of the Stand One is available now for $119 through Nomad’s online store in silver or carbide color options. It weighs 575 grams, or over 1.2 pounds, and comes with one other upgrade besides Qi2.2 compatibility. Nomad has added a second wireless charging pad on the base, tucked in behind the angled phone support, that can charge AirPods “most other wireless charging-compatible headphones” at 5W rates.
The new Qi2.2-compatible version of the Stand One Max is also now available through Nomad’s online store for $159 in carbide or silver colors. It carries forward the improved design of the previous model that allows smartphones to be attached horizontally to the stand while an Apple Watch is being simultaneously charged. The original version had a design flaw that prevented this. And while Nomad’s updated Stand One gains an AirPods charging pad, the heavier 875-gram Stand One Max carries forward earbuds charging from its predecessor. Behind the vertically-mounted Apple Watch charger is an indent where most Qi-compatible wireless earbud cases can be placed to top them off at 5W.
