Twelve South Unveils Valet Tray With Qi2 Charging, U.S. Launch Set for January 15

Pre-orders open at $179.99 as the company pitches a design-first catch-all that doubles as a phone charger.

Overview

  • The leather-lined Valet integrates a Qi2 magnetic pad delivering up to 15W of wireless charging for compatible phones and earbuds.
  • A secondary USB-C port for a second device is listed at 15W by multiple outlets, though one report cites 35W and the discrepancy has not been clarified.
  • Build materials include Nappa leather and a weighted zinc-alloy base, with a removable outer frame offered in multiple colors.
  • An integrated cable-management system lets users orient the tray in four configurations, and a brief "Goodnight Glow" light confirms charging before fading.
  • U.S. sales begin January 15 following today’s announcement at CES, with international availability planned later in 2026 and a color-matched wall charger included.
