Twelve South, known for its premium Apple accessories, is kicking off CES 2026 with a product that blends functionality and style. The new Twelve South Valet isn't just a wireless charger; it's a complete bedside or entryway solution, combining Qi2 charging with a luxurious leather catch-all tray. As someone who’s constantly juggling devices and accessories, this kind of streamlined solution is a welcome addition to the cluttered landscape of tech accessories.
A Charging Station That Complements Your Décor
The Valet is designed to be more than just a charging pad. It’s a place to neatly organize your everyday carry items. Imagine coming home, dropping your keys, wallet, and phone onto the Valet, knowing your phone will be charged and ready to go in the morning. No more frantic searches for misplaced essentials or tangled charging cables. It’s a simple yet elegant solution to a common problem.
Twelve South describes the Valet as a “wireless charging station and personal essentials tray,” and that description hits the nail on the head. The integrated Qi2 charger means it's optimized for the latest iPhones and other Qi2-compatible devices, offering faster and more efficient wireless charging. This is a welcome upgrade, as many older wireless chargers can be slow and finicky. Given Twelve South's track record, I expect the charging performance to be top-notch.
Beyond Charging: Taming the Clutter
What sets the Valet apart is its thoughtful design. The leather tray provides a designated space for all those items that typically end up scattered across your desk or nightstand. This is a particularly appealing feature for anyone who values organization and aesthetics. No more messy piles of keys, wallets, and other small items.
While pricing and exact availability are still under wraps, Twelve South products typically command a premium price point, reflecting their commitment to quality materials and design. It's safe to assume the Valet will follow suit. The real value, however, lies in its ability to simplify your daily routine and enhance your living space.
