Belkin introduces Powerhouse Dock for iPhone, Apple Watch

PLAYA VISTA, Calif. -- As sales of smartphone accessories continue to skyrocket, Belkin is bringing an innovative new Apple charging dock to market.

The Belkin Powerhouse Charge Dock for Apple Watch + iPhone offers consumers an easy 2-in-1 solution for turn-key charging.

The Powerhouse Dock offers:

• Built-in Apple Watch magnetic charging module with integrated lightning connector for the iPhone

• Integrated 2-in-1 charging solution optimally charges the Apple Watch and iPhone simultaneously

• Elevated design keeps the Apple Watch and iPhone more protected and easier to see while charging  

• MFi certification ensures that this product passed rigorous mechanical, stress, and electrical tests per Apple standards

The Powerhouse Charge Dock is available for an MSRP of $99 at retailers nationwide.
