Customers have mixed opinions about the magnetic strength of the cable. Some mention that it feels pretty strong, holds onto the phone nicely, and is sturdy.

Customers are mixed about the size of the electronic cable. Some mention that it fits perfectly, while others say it's small and easy to lose. The adaptor is pretty small and it'd be easy to lost it. The Magnector X2 does not fit perfectly for their case, but luckily the case is flexible enough. The large size and weight of the adaptor makes it difficult to fit through the slot on the case for the magnetic charging.

a good product thus far

Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2015

Verified Purchase

The item arrived from the seller earlier then estimated in minimal but adequate packaging. Of note, the product is just the magnetic connector. There is no included micro USB to USB cable included but i had several of these. There is included a small rubber case for the connector and a lanyard to attach it to something if desired.

The magnetic connector works as advertised. It attaches to the USB connector well and attaches to the phone snugly. The magnetic does not appear to be overly strong. Of note, I think it is work removing the connector by "breaking off" rather then pulling straight back off the phone given some stories of the magnetic charging port pulling free from the phone. Also, it might help to rest the phone with no angled tension on the cable while charging to again minimize tension on the phones magnetic port. The LED light is definitely bright but overly so in my opinion. The phone charging occurs surprisingly quickly. All in all, a good product thus far, although it was more expensive then other less rated alternative magnetic connectors available.

Magnector X2 - Xperia Z3 (T-Mobile)

Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2014

Verified Purchase

Decided to give it a try after reading mixed reviews. Glad I did. The X2 works great! The magnet is easily strong enough to lift the phone. I was a bit concerned it might not charge as quickly, but it seems to charge at the same rate as direct USB connection. Feels like rare-earth magnets.

My particular case, "VSTN® Sony Xperia Z3 ultra-thin PC Case Cover" by Vostrostone does, however, interfere with the "proper" attachment of the connector. Even so, it holds and charges without issue. It just sits at a 30 degree angle (meaning I need to charge on the edge of a table or book or something). I can still lift the phone by the magnetic connector even though it's not properly seated.

Has a small LED that is red when charging. Easy to tell that it's connected. LED is not super bright either - nice for not being an always-on night light.

Love this thing. I will be ordering two more. And... because I can't leave well enough alone, I'm going to try to file some of the Magnector's edges down to fit better with my case.

Works excellently with Sony Z3 Compact, strong magnet can lift the phone with it but dose not feel so strong that it would damage the phone removing it repeatedly over time. Its a hard plastic that seems some what machinable and like it will last I had to grind some of the lips down with a dremel to fit with my aluminium Devilcase, no more than a millimeter or so on both sides could probably get away with using a nail file for anyone else looking for the same set up. adapter fit snugly on the USB cable, I also ordered two of these with no evidence of inconsistency in quality between units. only issue I found so far with use is the GPS mount in my car clamps from the sides obviously in the way.

I have seen magnetic car mounts might look into those if i can find one that wont turn my phone into a magnet and just has a metal plate or something I can stick on the back. I don't care much for degaussing my credit cards when I set my phone on my wallet.

Anyway I recommend the Magnector x2, cheers.

X2 with Z3: Good but with annoying LEDs.

Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2015

Verified Purchase

I got the Magnector X2 to use with my T-Mobile Z3. I have a Cruzerlite Bugdroid TPU case. The two are completely compatible with one another and don't touch when the Magnector X2 is correctly positioned.

However there are a couple of things I dislike about the Magnector X2:

Firstly it has an annoying and pointless LED light on the Magnector itself. This LED is either red or green depending on the charge status. Or red when it isn't even plugged into the phone. As I charge my phone overnight like many people, these bright pointless little lights sit there on my side table staring at me. I try to block the light using my alarm clock, but the question remains: Why does it exist at all? It just wastes electricity and offers nothing of value. The phone itself is more than capable of telling me when it is done charging. Plus leaving the light on 24/7 even while not charging is a huge waste of electricity and offers no benefit to anyone (and you're having the charger do AC->DC conversion even when "nothing" is plugged into it adding further waste!).

The Magnector X2 often falls off the Z3's charging port. It isn't very securely attached to the side of the phone, so if I lift the phone up the connector will come off. I have to set my phone down and then place the Magnector X2 onto the magnetic port, and leave the whole thing alone until it is done charging. I will fully admit that this is likely an inherent issue with the Z3's magnetic charging port design, it was meant to be used for a dock, not a cable. However even if it is not the fault of the Magnector or MagNector, it is still a legitimate limitation to be aware of. This happens with or without a case, however it can be mitigated by reducing the "hang" weight of the cable (i.e. don't have the cable hang down below the level of the phone, instead anchor the cable to that level then plug it in e.g. set a bedside lamp on the cable after it reaches your bedside table).

So would I recommend this? Likely yes. At the time of this review there are only two games in town for the Z3, the Magnector X2 or the official Sony Xperia charging dock. The Magnector X2 may have some minor issues, but it works, and it works reliably. The reviews on the Sony dock are pretty bad, in particular as it seems to work with no cases, and costs roughly twice as much as the Magnector X2.

Sehr praktisches Zubehör für das Z3. Die Klappe für den USB-Anschluss kann endlich geschlossen bleiben. Aufladung erfolgt gefühlt sehr schnell. Kleine LED zeigt Ladezustand an.

parfait !

Honnêtement, super pratique au quotidien. La connexion est rapide. C'est beaucoup plus pratique pour recharger le tel en voiture. Attention tout de même, l'aimant n'est pas assez fort et il est délicat de manipuler le tel pendant la charge. Le produit n'a pas été conçu pour cela. Par contre une fois positionné, il n'y a pas de risques de déconnexions contrairement à une charge classique dû à une fiche un peu lâche.

2ter Magnetadapter den ich versuchte habe

Reviewed in Germany on April 10, 2015

Verified Purchase

Also erstmal: Die Qulität macht einen sehr sehr guten Eindruck. Gute Verpackung, Guter Stecker.

Die Magnetstärke ist mir noch zu schwach, dafuer dass Sie als "improved" angegeben wird - kein Unterschied zu dem Stecker den ich vorher hatte.

Warum also 2 Sterne?
Das Produkt wirbt mit "No interfering with case" Und das ist einfach mal gelogen. Es liegt AUF, rundum. Man kriegt kein Papier dazwischen, und somit ist eine Huelle undenkbar.
Dh. Immer fuers Laden, die Huelle abmachen, und das ist fuer mich keine Option.

Wuerde der Satz "No interfering with case" nicht dort stehen, wuerde es 5* bekommen, wuerde es aber dennoch zurueckschicken.
Nur so haelt es leider nicht was es verspricht.
