Now, the Belkin One of the most celebrated manufacturers of accessories for mobile devices and Apple's longtime partner do the same.

The company, riding the wave of new iPhones with wireless charging support, presented a new line of accessories with support for the Qi protocol, called Boost Up. There are four options, each with slightly different characteristics but all with the capacity to supply a load at 10W (for compatible devices, that is, iPhones currently limit to 7.5W in wireless recharges); all accessories are also capable of carrying smartphones with cases up to 3mm thick.

Speaking of the charger AirPower, whose shadow is yet to be seen on the shelves of the world, finally what is expected is happening: his first copies xing-ling are starting to pop up around the world.

As the video above shows, an unidentified company from Shenzhen, China, has already managed to develop its solution to create a very convincing copy of Ma's upcoming accessory, carrying an iPhone X and an Apple Watch on the same surface. The bastard twin was obviously named "Mini AirPower" (even because it appears to be slightly smaller than the original version) and sources say it is costing about R $ 50 in China.

Disregarding the danger of carrying your R $ 7,000 smartphone in a non-certified accessory, a beautiful bargain, considering the real price of the AirPower. N?
