Once upon a time, math teachers everywhere relied on the phrase “You won’t always have a calculator in your pocket!” to justify why you needed to cram the Pythagorean theorem over the weekend. They were wrong. So wrong, in fact, that we all don’t just have calculators in our pockets at all times but high powered, hand held super computers capable of gaming, streaming music, watching videos, and so much more. The downside is that smartphones require a lot of battery juice to keep them going. With so much of our lives taking place online and in the palms of our hands these days it's next to impossible to just sit your phone down somewhere and wait for it to take 8-10 hours to charge.
There’s been a lot of great advancements in charging technology including bumping up chargers to output 15W of power in an effort to speed things along, but even at that output many official MagSafe chargers can still require 8 hours to fully charge. The problem, then, is the generated heat from the act of charging your device. As the temperature of your device rises the ability for it to charge wirelessly becomes throttled. Continuing to use the phone while it is charging, especially for CPU-intensive apps like watching videos, can make matters even worse.
ESR, a leading brand in mobile accessories which has been around since 2009, has two new products that address this MagSafe throttling. The new ESR 25W 3-in-1 Charger, the ESR 100W 6-in-1 Charging Station, and the ESR 15W Car Charger all include MagSafe and ESR’s new CryoBoost technology. The new CryoBoost feature on these three chargers combines Apple’s MagSafe functionality with a unique cooling system to lower the temperature of the device being charged so that it can sustain maximum charging speeds for longer, effectively lowering the time it takes to fully charge your favorite devices even when they are in use. So, where other MagSafe chargers might slow down, ESR’s can speed along to a full charge. Let’s take a closer look at what ESR’s MagSafe approved line of Cryboost charging stands and car mount have to offer.
25W 3-in-1 Wireless Charger with MagSafe + CryoBoost
For lightning fast MagSafe charging, the 25W 3-in-1 Wireless Charger with MagSafe and CryoBoost technology can power up your favorite Apple devices in a snap and look good doing it.

The 3-in-1 Wireless charger is certified by Apple and utilizes powerful magnets to securely hold your iPhone in place—either in portrait or landscape mode—while it rapidly charges, allowing you to continue to watch videos, take calls, and answer important messages even when it's charging. Unfortunately, CPU intensive apps can lead to throttling charging speeds when you’re using your phone while charging but ESR’s MagSafe charging stand with CryoBoost technology is capable of keeping your phone below 98°F, preventing throttling while charging. This allows you to cut down the charge time on an iPhone 14 Pro to as low as 3 hours and 2 minutes when using apps or just at 2 hours when charging an iPhone 14 Pro to 100% while not in use.

The charger’s built-in cooling fan and heat dissipating CryoBoost technology will keep your iPhone at a respectable temperature so that you can charge an iPhone 14 Pro to 100% in just 2 hours and 5 minutes even when continuing to use navigation apps during charging. Thanks to Apple certification, ESR MagSafe with CryoBoost chargers have unlocked full charging potential, allowing your phone to charge to 100% whereas other MagSafe devices stop at 94%.
The 15W Car Charger with MagSafe and CryoBoost tech will retail for $105.99 and is available now on Amazon.
100W 6-in-1-Charging Station with MagSafe + CryoBoost
