Tech Review – Twelve South HiRise 3 Deluxe luxury 3-in-1 charging stand for Apple devices

Twelve South is a brand we have been testing products for some time now and when it comes to Apple products these guys offer premium accessories to match your premium priced Apple goods. Today we check out their latest edition of the HiRise 3 Deluxe which is their latest offering and back in 2019 we checked out their 2-in-1 wireless charger and now they have upped the game.

The HiRise 3 Deluxe 3-in-1 charging stand allows users to connect their iPhone in both portrait and landscape modes, delivering up to 15W of fast wireless charging.  It allows users to connect their iPhone in both portrait and landscape mode (perfect for StandBy mode in iOS 17), delivering up to 15W of fast MagSafe wireless charging.

Additionally, it offers fast-charge for the Apple Watch and a 7.5W wireless charger in the base for AirPods or a second compatible phone. I have tested other Qi enabled devices and all worked fine with no issues on the product.

With this product you not only save on space but cable this is portable and can be brought with you if you wish to do so, it could also act as another screen beside your laptop to check emails and social media and it is charging while doing so, it is high enough to leave standing beside your desktop or laptop and you can also consume media.

The build quality is top notch here again and you would not expect anything less from the company, it looks great on any desk or bedside locker although it is on the higher end of pricing for similar products it is the better one and metter quality and I have tested several similar products that cost much less but they do not last and this one is built like a tank and will last.

Twelve South reveals new HiRise Pro for MacBook with redesign and MagSafe base

Twelve South, a leading designer of Apple accessories, today introduces the new HiRise Pro, the first height-adjustable, MagSafe compatible MacBook stand. More flexible than a fixed stand, the HiRise Pro adjusts up and down to the perfect height for eye-level video calls or to align perfectly with an external display. HiRise Pro is also the first and only stand with room in the base to add a MagSafe charger, providing users with a streamlined workspace. HiRise Pro is available now for £99.99 from Amazon UK.

With a sleek metal design and vegan leather-trim, Twelve South’s latest MacBook stand beautifully matches the silver and black aesthetic of Apple’s Pro accessory line. Height-adjustable, the HiRise Pro allows users to elevate their MacBook 6-inches off their desk, placing their webcam at eye level for more natural video calls. After the call, the laptop can then be repositioned to seamlessly align with an external display or lowered to as little as 2.5-inches off the desk, for a comfortable working height if using one screen. Perfect for creative professionals, an adjustable laptop stand such as the HiRise Pro enables them to align external monitors to create one huge panoramic screen, making it easier to work.

An ideal addition to any desk or home office, the option to add a MagSafe charger into the base of the HiRise Pro also means users have somewhere to power their iPhone or AirPods while working, without taking up space on the desk or needing extra cables.  Completely redesigned, the HiRise Pro picks up from the original HiRise for MacBook, the very first adjustable laptop stand in the world which was launched over 10-years ago.

Andrew Green, Founder of Twelve South comments: “At Twelve South we’re always striving to create innovative new products that help users’ daily lives. Despite the first edition being over ten years old, HighRise is still a best-selling range for us and we’re so excited to have modernized it further by integrating a MagSafe charging slot in the base”.

The Twelve South HiRise Pro fits all laptops and MacBooks from 11-inch Air to 16-inch Pro and is available now for £99.99 from Amazon.
