If you buy any old case, however, there's no guarantee that its magnetic connection will be strong enough to securely snap onto a MagSafe charger or accessory. That's why it's important to look for a case that is officially MagSafe-compatible, in addition to being durable and visually appealing. Moment, a case manufacturer, has designed a new case that will bring MagSafe to the iPhone 11 – all models. Called the Moment M(Force), the case uses Moment’s M(Force) technology which is basically just MagSafe by another name. With the case on your iPhone 11, you can start using nearly all compatible MagSafe products. And if you want to get really fancy, most of Moment’s MagSafe – uh, M(Force), sorry – cases support its Moment Lenses, so you can attach a wide array of different styles of lenses directly to the case, including fisheye lenses and macro lens. Pretty cool, right? MagSafe on Newer iPhones: Apple’s iPhone 13 series comes with MagSafe as a standard feature. The iPhone 12 series also supports MagSafe. And so do all iPhones released thereafter.

The upshot of this is that you can start using MagSafe accessories with your iPhone 11, including things like car mounts and wallet attachments. The downside? You’ll have to buy a specific type of case. Qi wireless charging, on the other hand, refers to the way that most wireless chargers are built. Nearly all wireless chargers are built using the Qi standard, including MagSafe chargers. If a case supports MagSafe, it supports Qi charging too, but not necessarily vice versa. The iPhone 11 does support wireless charging. Just place it on any Qi-compatible charger and it starts juicing up. But hold on a second. It’s not lightning-fast. You’re capped at a 7.5W charging speed.MagSafe refers to Apple's proprietary magnetic charging technology, which allows any of the best iPhones to charge at faster wireless speeds — up to 15W with a compatible MagSafe charger. MagSafe also opens up your iPhone to compatible accessories, including cases and portable batteries.

So, to wrap it up: Yes, the iPhone 11 can do wireless charging. But it’s not the fastest, and it doesn’t have the MagSafe bells and whistles. Still, if you’re a fan of wireless charging, the iPhone 11 won’t let you down. Just don’t expect the magnetic perks that come with newer models. How To Make The iPhone 11 MagSafeAnd while I could have got the entry-level iPhone 12, I figured I’d be better off with the iPhone 11 Pro Max. Better to have a slightly older flagship with all the trimmings than a newer, standard model, right? Third-Party Solutions: Due to the iPhone 11’s continued popularity in the refurbished market, several third-party accessory makers have developed solutions to bring MagSafe-like features to the iPhone 11 series.
