If you are buying one separately or providing your own, you’ll need to make sure it is capable of carrying up to 100W.Īnker is perhaps one of the best-known names in charging tech, and this single-port PD charger is attractive to us for several reasons. Note that you can purchase this adaptor with or without a USB-C cable. This UGreen adaptor supports multiple charging protocols, including Power Delivery 2.0 and 3.0, Quick Charge 4+ and PPS, and it will work with pretty much any device that charges over USB. There’s a maximum power output of 100W, which means when you use more than one port the power rating will be reduced, but it’s still possible to get up to 65W on either of those two 100W USB-Cs. There are four USB ports in all-three USB-C and one full-size USB-A-two of which support a 100W output, with the other two rated at 22.5W. It’s not overly bulky, despite its weight, thanks to the GaN tech inside.īut it’s really not about what it looks like it’s about what it does-and this UGreen GAN X 100W adaptor has some serious power behind it. The outer casing is a matte gun-metal grey, and all the necessary tech specs are hidden out of sight where the adaptor plugs into the wall. There are no angular edges here, with every line smoothed out and rounded to soften its appearance. We like the design, and it feels much better made than some cheap plasticky chargers. The 8.29oz (235g) US model has a taller, more rectangular design, with folding plugs to make them more compact for travel, but the core specs are otherwise the same. The UK three-pin model, which has a different design to those available in the US and EU-necessarily so, because the elongated design and sheer weight (268g for the UK model) of this thing would likely have trouble staying attached to the wall without that third prong to steady itself. This UGreen device is a powerful 100W laptop charger.
