Consumer benefits:

    --  Built-in Apple Watch magnetic charging module with integrated lightning
        connector for the iPhone
    --  Integrated 2-in-1 charging solution optimally charges the Apple Watch
        and iPhone simultaneously
    --  Elevated design keeps the Apple Watch and iPhone more protected and
        easier to see while charging
    --  MFi certification ensures that this product passed rigorous mechanical,
        stress, and electrical tests per Apple standards
"Most people who have an Apple watch also have an iPhone, so a combined charging solution just makes sense," said Melody Saffery, senior director of product management at Belkin. "The Powerhouse Charge Dock is designed with the consumer in mind - it organically integrates both chargers into its design so all you need to do is plug it in and go."

The Powerhouse Charge Dock is available for an MSRP of $99 at http://www.belkin.com/us/p/P-F8J200/, Best Buy and other leading retailers globally.
