Introduction

The RAEGR Arc One RG10450 15W wireless charger promises fast, efficient charging with a “Made in India” appeal. But does it live up to the hype? I’ve been using this charger for several weeks now, putting it through its paces with various devices, and I’m ready to share my honest assessment.

Features

The Arc One boasts several key features, including its multi-device compatibility, supporting various charging speeds (15W, 10W, 7.5W, and 5W) depending on your device and power adapter. The Qi certification assures compatibility with a wide array of Qi-enabled smartphones. It also features a slim design with air vents for improved heat dissipation, a crucial aspect for fast wireless charging. The charger’s construction uses fireproof ABS material, adding to the overall safety and durability. The inclusion of a Type-C charging cable is a welcome addition.

Performance

My testing involved charging several devices, including iPhones (13 Pro Max, 14 Pro) and Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. The 15W charging speed was impressive on the Samsung, consistently delivering faster charging times compared to my previous wireless charger. iPhone charging, while not as fast (capped at 7.5W), was still noticeably quicker than with standard 5W wireless charging. The charger’s temperature remained manageable even during extended use, thanks to the efficient air vent design. Charging through a thin case didn’t affect charging speeds significantly. I did notice slight warmth with MagSafe-compatible iPhones during charging, but this subsided once charging was complete, as stated in the product description.

One minor drawback I noted was the relatively short cable (3.3ft). For optimal placement, a longer cable might be beneficial.

Pros & Cons

Pros:

• Fast 15W charging (with compatible devices and adapter)
• Multiple charging speeds supported
• Qi-certified for broad compatibility
• Efficient heat dissipation
• Durable and fireproof ABS material
• Supports charging through thin cases
• Made in India

Cons:

• Relatively short charging cable
• Slight warmth noticed with MagSafe devices during charging (within expected parameters)

Final Verdict

The RAEGR Arc One RG10450 delivers a solid wireless charging experience. The fast charging capabilities, along with its well-designed safety features and build quality, make it a compelling choice. While the short cable is a minor inconvenience, the overall performance and “Made in India” aspect elevate it above many competitors. I would recommend this charger to anyone seeking a reliable and relatively fast wireless charging solution.
