Last year, Kuxiu was the first to make chargers that fit perfectly with the Cosmic Orange iPhone. They released their 3-in-1 X40 Turbo and their S4 Solid State Battery Pack. They both matched the orange color so well that it looked like they were 1st party accessories. This year, the new hero color for the iPhone 18 Pro lineup is burgundy, and Kuxiu is back with a new matching burgundy D5 5-in-1 charging station. With its premium build quality, perfect color matching, built-in cooling, and price, this charger is everything you need from a performance and aesthetic point of view.
Be sure to watch our hands-on video below!
I reviewed their original D5 a few months back, and it was one of my favorite chargers of the year. Now they’ve brought it all back with some awesome looking accents and features. The Kuxiu D5 is billed as a 5-in-1 charger as it charges three devices, but also has a built-in cooling fan and a diagnostic display. You get:
- Qi2.2 25W wireless charging
- Retractable Apple Watch charging case
- AirPods charging mat
- Built-in cooling fan that can be turned on and off manually
- Smart color display to give us real-time charging statistics
- Includes 45W charger and braided cable in the packaging
While not as compact as something like their X40 Turbo, there is still some thought put into portability and traveling with this charger. The Qi2.2 charger can fold flat into a small cube that you can take wherever you need, and the Apple Watch charger also retracts into the charger. For me it worked best as a permanent desk charger, but it’s nice to know it’s portable too.
My experience
As I mentioned, I used the original black color as my main deck for a few months. It is reliable, functional and easy to use. So when Kuxiu announced their burgundy version, I knew I had to check it out, especially since I was looking for some burgundy color matching accessories for my new iPhone 18 Pro.
Since I knew this charger was already great, I wanted to see how closely the color matched the iPhone 18 Pro, and I was impressed by how identical it was. The aluminum parts of the D5 match the burgundy on the iPhone 18 Pro, and they add other burgundy accents via the different materials of the charger.
Beyond the aesthetics, my favorite part is the built-in cooling fan because it adds tangible value to the setup. I am someone who is constantly installing new iOS betas, testing new features and putting my phone through situations where it tends to get hot. So, having the active cooling system built right into the charger has been a game changer in keeping my phone efficiently cooled and helping it sustain 25W charging for longer as it doesn’t get hot. The fan is also dead quiet, but if you want to turn it off, you can do so with a tap. Then, of course, you have the diagnostic display that shows you all the charging statistics you need to see from all active chargers.
Pricing & Availability
The Kuxiu D5 is available today on Kuxiu’s site in the original Space Gray and their new Burgundy color. You also get the requisite 45W charger and a neat USB-C cable. It is currently on sale for $59.99.
take finals
For less than $60, I challenge anyone to find me a high-quality 3-in-1 charger that offers all the features above and includes all the charging accessories you need to use it to its best. That’s why Kuxiu is one of the brands I recommend the most; it is the performance-to-price ratio that sets them apart. So if you just bought a new burgundy iPhone or you’re in the market for a new 3-in-1 charger, I recommend you check this one out. My only wish is that the next version has a USB-C port so you can charge a 4th device, like a smart ring or something. Otherwise this thing is great.
