Baseus is making waves at CES 2026 with its new Spacemate RD1 Pro desktop dock, and for once, the hype might be justified. We're talking about a 15-in-1 behemoth that could finally declutter your workspace. But the real draw? A magnetic Qi2 25W charging pad—one of the first we've seen integrated into a dock like this.
More Than Just a Charger: Ports Galore
Let's be clear: "15-in-1" is always a marketing stretch. But even with some likely port-counting shenanigans, the RD1 Pro offers a genuinely impressive array of connectivity. The Verge reports we're looking at two HDMI ports, four USB-C, four USB-A, Gigabit Ethernet, and SD/microSD card slots. That, combined with the Qi2 charger, means you likely won't be hunting for dongles any time soon.
The port selection is promising, but real-world performance is what matters. Baseus claims 4K@120Hz output to a single monitor or 4K@60Hz to two, with USB-C data transfer speeds up to 10Gbps. I'll believe it when I see it. Charging tops out at 100W, which is adequate, but I’ll be interested to test the power distribution across all those ports when the unit is fully loaded.
Qi2: The Upgrade We Needed
Qi2 is the key here. The promise of 25W wireless charging, especially for iPhones, is a huge step up from the pokey 7.5W we've been stuck with for far too long. If the Spacemate RD1 Pro delivers on this, it's a genuine game-changer for desk organization and charging efficiency. I have spent hundreds of dollars on docks that underperform, and the faster charging via the new Qi2 standard may make this one worth buying.
Baseus is known for pushing the envelope in mobile accessories, according to Android Authority, and this dock certainly seems to fit that bill. I’m eager to get my hands on the Spacemate RD1 Pro to put it through its paces. If it lives up to the specs, it could be the ultimate desktop companion for power users—assuming the price is right. Until then, approach with cautious optimism.
