Hello, I wondered if anyone had a MagSafe charger unit (the one that stands straight up looks nifty) and if so does it make a high pitched whine noise when it’s charging? My current wireless charges make a noise and I am looking to put it right next to my bed so would prefer if it wasn’t distracting.

Also, does anyone have the Apple official silicon case for an iPhone? If so would you recommend? Pricey, I know, but hoping it will last. Thanks in advance.

Edit: Thanks for the replies everyone!

I got an Apple silicon case for my 12 Pro, my girlfriend got one for her 13, my dad got one for his 12 Pro Max. All three fell apart rather quickly. My dad also had the Apple clear MagSafe case for his 12 Pro which broke in multiple places. I now use a Spigen slim MagArmour case, my dad uses the same once he upgraded to a 14 Pro Max. My girlfriend uses a clear magnetic case by Speck. All are in perfect condition still after a year of use each. My girlfriend, dad and I all have physical jobs of varying degrees. My mom also uses a Spigen case for her 12 Pro Max (the exact phone my dad had before the 14 PM) and has had no issues, though it’s worth noting she’s got an office job and she’s not at all hard on her phone cases.

When I was on android, I always used Spigen cases. I think I’ll stick with them when I upgrade my phone this year. I’ve also been tempted by Mous cases as I had one before which I quite liked, but they’re quite a bit more expensive than Spigen.
