The StepUp is a small magnetic charging station with two side panels that can be retracted into the station. The top of the StepUp is the main phone charger, which offers support for 5W, 7.5W, 10W, and 15W charging, The two side panels are intended for [AirPods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magnetic-wireless-charging-stand) and an [Apple Watch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wicharge-folding-wireless-charger), and both feature the optimal wattage for these products. The StepUp wireless charger also boasts Apple '[MagSafe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anker-maggo)' compatibility, making it an excellent option for Apple devices. When the StepUp is not in use and it is retracted, the product looks sleek with its compact, reflective black finish. On top of this, the StepUp does not need to always be plugged in in order to charge, it features a USB-C-charged battery within the unit itself.
