Twelve South Introduces the World’s Smallest Dual USB-C MagSafe Charger, ButterFly
Apple accessory design company Twelve South has unveiled an impressive new product today—the world’s smallest 2-in-1 USB-C MagSafe charger, ButterFly. This product not only allows you to charge your iPhone and Apple Watch simultaneously while on the go but also features an ultra-compact and lightweight design, making it suitable for various travel needs. We will provide a detailed overview of ButterFly’s design, functionality, and its advantages in everyday use.
Design and Portability
ButterFly was designed with travelers in mind. Its ultra-compact design ensures it takes up minimal space in a backpack, handbag, or carry-on luggage. For those who frequently travel or are on the go, this charger is undoubtedly an ideal choice. ButterFly features a durable aluminum shell, ensuring it can withstand various environmental challenges during travel.
ButterFly comes with a 20W power adapter and four international plug adapters (US, UK, EU, and AU), meaning users can easily charge their devices no matter where they are. These adapters make ButterFly a truly global charger, perfect for frequent travelers.
Functionality and Versatility
The versatility of ButterFly is one of its standout features. When unfolded, users will see a MagSafe charger for iPhone and a magnetic fast charger for Apple Watch. These two components are connected by a synthetic leather strap, allowing both devices to be charged simultaneously with just one included cable. Additionally, ButterFly can also charge wireless AirPods—simply place the AirPods Pro charging case on the ButterFly charger.
ButterFly is not just a charger; it can also transform into a display stand, supporting the iPhone’s standby mode or the Apple Watch’s nightstand mode. This means users can place their devices at an optimal viewing angle while charging. When folded in half, this small aluminum plate can also serve as a hands-free viewing stand, allowing users to prop up their iPhone for video conferencing, streaming shows, viewing notifications, or FaceTiming with family.
Moreover, the magnetic watch charging pad on ButterFly can tilt, enabling users to lay the Apple Watch flat or stand it upright in nightstand mode. When charging only the watch, users can fold ButterFly to create a neat base. This design not only saves space but also makes the charger an aesthetically pleasing display piece when not in use.
The Ideal Choice for Travel
This miniature iPhone and Watch dual charger is perfect for travel, as it is compact enough to carry anywhere. Its space-saving vertical design is smaller than an iPhone Pro Max, making it ideal for placement on hotel nightstands or remote work desks. ButterFly, along with AirFly, is another essential travel accessory from the Twelve South series. For those who loved the now-discontinued Apple MagSafe Duo Charger, ButterFly is undoubtedly a perfect replacement.
ButterFly is now available at Twelve South and Apple UK stores, both physical and online, priced at £129.99. It includes a 20W USB-C power adapter, four international plug adapters, and a travel pouch to keep everything together. This comprehensive travel charging solution is sure to become a favorite among many travelers.
Market Position and Competitive Advantage
ButterFly’s launch provides Twelve South with a unique competitive advantage in the charger market. Compared to traditional chargers, ButterFly’s design is more refined, and its functionality is more versatile, especially with its 2-in-1 charging capability, saving users the hassle of carrying multiple charging devices.
Additionally, ButterFly’s design is not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing and practical. The combination of a durable aluminum shell and synthetic leather strap makes this charger both robust and stylish. Whether at home, in the office, or on the go, ButterFly offers users a convenient and fast charging experience.
