Belkin’s latest 3‑in‑1 charger is basically a quiet rebellion against the Apple Watch–only world that most multi-device docks still live in. Instead of forcing you into one ecosystem, the UltraCharge Modular Charging Dock is built around a simple idea: bring whatever smartwatch you own, and it’ll try its best to play nice.​

For years, 3‑in‑1 stands have followed the same script: a MagSafe-style pad for your phone, a small dish for your earbuds, and a fixed nub tailor‑made for the Apple Watch. Great if you’re all-in on Apple, useless if there’s a Galaxy Watch or Pixel Watch on your wrist. Belkin is clearly tired of that playbook. Its new dock, shown off at CES 2026, leans into modularity instead of lock-in, and that one design choice changes who this product is for.​

At the top of the stand, you get a 25W Qi2.2 wireless charging pad that tilts and folds flat, so it can work like a traditional stand on a desk or lie flat on a nightstand when you’re done doomscrolling. Qi2 means tighter magnetic alignment and faster, more reliable wireless charging for supported phones, including recent iPhones and Android devices with Qi2 hardware, rather than just treating non-Apple devices as second‑class citizens. Tucked underneath that main pad is a smaller charging zone meant for wireless earbuds, so your Galaxy Buds, Pixel Buds, or AirPods get an actual spot instead of being balanced precariously on the edge of a phone pad.​

The real twist sits at the back. Instead of a permanently integrated Apple Watch puck, Belkin gives you a pop‑out arm and a set of adapters designed to hold your existing smartwatch charger. You thread the cable up from a 10W USB‑C port hidden in the base, click the puck into place using the spacers, and suddenly that “Apple‑first” 3‑in‑1 layout turns into a fully-fledged dock for an Apple Watch, a Samsung Galaxy Watch, or even a first‑ or second‑gen Google Pixel Watch. It’s not magic — you still have to sacrifice the puck that came in your watch box — but it means one $64.99 dock can survive a platform switch in a way most 3‑in‑1 chargers simply can’t.​

Underneath, Belkin has done the tidy‑desk crowd a favor. That 10W USB‑C port for the watch puck sits inside a cable management cavity, so the wire disappears into the body instead of spilling across your nightstand like spaghetti. A second USB‑C port is reserved for power in, with an included 45W adapter in the box — again, the sort of thing a lot of cheaper stands quietly skip, leaving you hunting for a spare charger in a drawer. The whole dock is rated to wirelessly charge three devices at once: phone, buds, and watch, with the watch charger drawing its 10W over that internal USB‑C line.​

What’s interesting is where this leaves you if you’re not an Apple Watch user at all. Pair the dock with a Galaxy S‑series or Pixel phone, Galaxy Buds or Pixel Buds, and your watch of choice, and you suddenly have something that feels like it should’ve existed years ago: a single stand that caters to a full Android ecosystem instead of treating it as an afterthought. It even potentially becomes a nice bridge device for households where one person is on an iPhone and another is on Android — just swap out the puck in the rear if the main watch in the house changes.​

Belkin is also using this dock to show off what Qi2 can do when it’s not wrapped in Apple branding. Qi2 brings MagSafe‑style magnets and a smarter power handshake into the open standard, and accessory makers are clearly ready to lean into that. On this dock, that means snappier alignment and up to 25W wireless speeds for supported phones — a noticeable bump over the 7.5–15W many older stands peak at. For day‑to‑day life, that translates into your phone actually gaining meaningful charge while you binge a show in bed, instead of just treading water.​

Belkin didn’t stop at the desk setup either. Alongside the dock, it announced the UltraCharge Pro Power Bank 10K with Magnetic Ring ($99.99, launching February 2026), a portable battery that speaks the same design language: don’t make people choose between accessories and power. It’s a 10,000mAh brick with up to 25W Qi2.2 wireless charging and up to 30W over USB‑C, and both can be used at the same time, so you can top up your phone wirelessly while fast‑charging another device via cable.​

The clever detail here is the second magnetic ring on the back. Most MagSafe-style power banks hog the space where you’d normally stick a magnetic wallet, grip, or stand, forcing you to choose between comfort and battery life. Belkin’s design adds that extra ring so accessories can still latch on behind the bank while it’s attached to your phone, turning the whole stack into something you can actually keep using instead of just a temporary brick glued to glass. It also supports pass‑through charging and has a camera‑friendly shape that avoids blocking your lenses, which matters if you’re the sort of person who shoots video while charging.​

Taken together, the dock and the power bank make it pretty clear where Belkin thinks charging is headed. Fixed, single‑ecosystem docks and one‑trick batteries are giving way to accessories that assume you might own an iPhone today, a Galaxy tomorrow, and a Pixel after that — and that you’re going to want your existing gear to adapt, not be replaced. The UltraCharge Modular Charging Dock doesn’t solve everything — you still have to deal with watch‑maker quirks like Google’s switch to a pin‑based system on the Pixel Watch 3, which this dock can’t support — but it does redraw the lines for what “3‑in‑1” should mean in 2026.​

If you’re the kind of person who hates cables, buys a lot of gadgets, or just wants your nightstand to stop looking like a charging graveyard, this dock is one of the first mainstream options that genuinely respects that reality. It’s priced below some of the more travel‑oriented Apple‑only stands, it hides the mess, and it doesn’t punish you for owning the “wrong” watch. For once, a 3‑in‑1 doesn’t assume your entire tech identity begins and ends with the Apple Watch — and that alone makes it worth paying attention to.
