The FiiO MagClip is a solution we didn’t even know we needed.
Most modern mobile phones have ditched the headphone jack, leading many of us to resort to dongles instead. But these add weight to our phones and create a new issue: the annoying “dongle dangle.”
If you’re one of those who are tired of this, FiiO has released something for you: the MagClip.
This magnetic bundling kit is designed to keep dongles secure and prevent them from wobbling or dangling. It’s a new solution compatible with iPhones with MagSafe functionality and other phones with magnetic capabilities.
FiiO MagClip Features
People who use dongles know how annoying it is when they swing and move, especially when walking. Over time, this can disrupt your listening experience and even damage your dongle or phone port.
The FiiO MagClip solves this common problem by providing a stable and secure attachment for MagSafe phones. Its design specifically targets the left-to-right swinging motion of dongles, to make sure they stay in place during use.
For phones without MagSafe, FiiO has also added a MagSafe-compatible phone case.
And, if your phone or phone case lacks sufficient magnetic strength, you can add the included magnetic base to enhance the magnetic force.
Here’s a look at some of the key features of the FiiO MagClip:
- Strong Magnetic Power: The MagClip has 17 high-strength N52-grade neodymium magnets, which can hold as much as two liters of water.
- Durable Design: Crafted with a full metal body, the MagClip is sturdy and resistant to bending. Plus, the front surface has a silicone pad that can protect your clip and dongle from everyday wear and tear.
- Enhanced Functionality: The MagClip’s clever design includes several slots and comes with ten rubber bands to hold it in place. This prevents the dongle from swaying back and forth, providing stability when you’re on the move. The multiple openings also let you place your dongle in different ways to fit various devices and cables.
However, while the MagClip offers an excellent solution for many users, there are some considerations to keep in mind.
Some dongle DAC/amps may experience noise and interference when placed close to a phone. This issue is not related to the MagClip itself, but rather to the nature of certain audio devices.
Where to Buy
The FiiO MagClip is available on the AliExpress Official Store for around USD$10.
