Buy recommendation
The Nomad Base Station appears with a very high-quality finish.
At first I was a little reluctant about the price, but I have not regretted the purchase. Since I own an Apple Watch, Airpods and iPhone, I find this "Mfi" certified charging station very successful. 3 coils with 7.5 watts each is the fastest that is currently possible with Apple devices and because the whole pad is full of coils, you don't have any problems finding the right position.
The only complaint is the size.
With an iPhone 11 Pro Max and an iPhone XS Max, it is unfortunately not possible to charge both iPhones simultaneously with 7.5 watts, as the pad is too small for this.Pro

Super device!!
I find the Nomad Base Station very elegant and it's really great, it charges the phone in a few hours.
A clear recommendation to buy!
The Base State - Apple Watch Edition is probably what Apple's AirPower should (or could?) have been. The quality of workmanship and appearance are absolutely top-notch and the station looks just great on the bedside table. In addition, there is only one power cable leading to the socket. This means that the charging cables of the iPhone and the Apple Watch can be used for travel, etc. without having to rewire everything every time or buy additional cables and adapters.
The only downer here is probably the price, although it has to be said that you get an extremely high-quality product for your money.Pro

High-quality charging station with potential for improvement
The workmanship is impeccable and leaves nothing to be desired. The dimmable status LEDs are also a useful feature.
Unlike in the product description, however, there are no additional USB outlets. I don't understand why Nomad has dispensed with them in this edition although it is more expensive than the Hub Edition. Unfortunately, Digitec has still not adjusted this (as of 10.01.20).
I tested the Base Station with an iPhone 11. If you place the phone lengthwise (so that it takes up the entire charging pad), it is immediately recognised and charged. The size of the pad fits like a glove. However, if you place it upright so that the AirPods can also be charged, it becomes a test of patience until you find the right position. That's why I deduct one star.Pro

Top, but not always super accurate
So this device is really beautiful and adds a great design to a desk, but I find it a bit expensive all the same.
Also, when we put our devices to charge on it, it doesn't always immediately see that there's a device to charge. You often have to put them back so that it can spot them and start charging them.
Otherwise, the quality of the product's materials is really perfect.Pro
