Hands-on with Belkin’s new headphones, charging gear, and more at CES 2025

Belkin unveiled a number of new products at CES 2025, including new MagSafe/Qi2 wireless chargers, all sorts of new USB-C charging bricks, and a new 20,000mAh power bank that’s still relatively compact. They also have new pairs of headphones, and announced an all-new creator bundle. We got to go hands on with it all at CES Unveiled last night.

Charging gear

Belkin’s new BoostCharge Pro Magnetic Wireless Charging Pad supports Qi2, providing up to 15W of output to compatible devices. It comes in two colors, black and white, and includes a built-in kickstand for propping up your phone while plugged in. It starts at $19.99 without a power supply, and $29.99 with an included power adapter. It’ll be available beginning in April.

Belkin also announced that much of its existing gear will receive updated housing throughout Q2, moving over to 85-90% post-consumer recycled materials. The first products to switch over include the 45W and 65W Dual USB-C wall chargers, the 70W and 100W GaN wall chargers with interchangeable tips, its 15W wireless charger with Qi2, and many charging cables. More products will adopt this updated housing throughout 2025.

There’s also two new BoostCharge Compact USB-C chargers, in both 45W and 65W form factors. They’re impressively small, being 35mm and 42mm respectively. They’ll be available for $29.99 and $39.99 beginning in March.

Last but not least, Belkin’s new 20,000mAh power bank is compact, comes in four great colors – including blue, pink, black, and white, and has an included USB-C cable for easy usage. It outputs up to 30W, allowing for fast charging with compatible devices. It’ll be available for $49.99 in April.

Audio gear

Belkin has two new pairs of headphones to offer this year, one pair of over-ears and one set of earbuds.

Its new earbuds, the SoundForm Anywhere, are semi open-ear earbuds with a flat form factor, and have a number of attachments to help the earbuds stay in your ears, even while sleeping. They offer 7 hours of battery life on their own, and the charging case provides an additional 20 hours of charge. They have noise reduction for phone calls, IPX4 sweat resistance, and offer USB-C fast charging, with a 10 minute charge delivering 90 minutes of usage. The case is also incredibly tiny. Pricing has not yet been unveiled, but they’ll be available in Q2.

The company also announced a surprisingly affordable pair of over-ear headphones: the SoundForm Isolate. They provide active noise cancellation, a folding design, and very comfortable ear cups, all at a low $59.99 price tag. SoundForm Isolate offer up to 60 hours of battery life, and sound pretty good for $60. They’ll come in sand and black colorways, and are available for purchase today on Amazon.

Creator products

Belkin announced a new bundle for creators, including a durable tripod, a MagSafe phone mount, a 6-inch USB-C cable, and a set of wearable microphones with 100m of range and 5.5 hours of battery life. It offers everything you’d need to easily shoot on the go. I tried out the MagSafe phone mount, and it certainly allows for better stability while recording video off of your iPhone. It’ll be available in May, and pricing hasn’t yet been announced.

And finally, the Stage PowerGrip. It’s both a 10,000mAh magnetic power bank and an ergonomic phone grip. I unfortunately did not get to try this product out, but it’ll be available in powder blue, sandbox, fresh yellow, pepper, and lavender starting in May. It also includes a little display for monitoring battery percentage. Pricing hasn’t yet been announced.

Wrap up

While most of these products won’t be available for a couple months, you can pick up Belkin’s impressive SoundForm Isolate headphones for just $59.99 today on Amazon, with two-day delivery.
