I'm upgrading from an iPhone 11 and everything feels so different. My old phone's battery is basically dead by noon and the charging port barely works anymore, so I’m really nervous about the iPhone 15. I’ve heard about MagSafe but I’m totally lost. Is it just a magnet? Does it charge slower? I’m worried about getting the wrong one and somehow frying my new battery. My logic was that I should probably get the official Apple one, but then I saw a bunch of cheaper ones on Amazon and now I'm paralyzed. I don't want to spend more than $60 or $70 if I can help it. I really need this battery to last because I use the camera a lot for my kids' sports. I keep seeing things about 'Qi2' versus 'MagSafe' and my head is spinning. Sorry if this is a really basic question but I honestly have no idea what the difference is or if I need a special brick for the wall too. Will any magnetic charger work or are some of them dangerous? I just want something reliable that won't make the phone get super hot. What are people actually using?

Reviews always favor the Apple MagSafe Charger but real owners know it overheats and throttles. Don't fall for the brand hype. Qi2 certified hardware is the same tech for less. The Anker MagGo Wireless Charger (Pad) hits the 15W limit and stays cooler. Just make sure you have a 20W wall adapter or any MagSafe charger will be slow.
