These days, we have many things that we need to charge. We have our phones, our tablets, our laptop, our smartwatches, headphones, Bluetooth keyboard and mice, and so on. This means that when we travel, we might need to lug around a ton of chargers and cables that can be frankly speaking, very annoying to pack.
If you’re looking for an all-in-one charging solution, then you might be interested in taking a look at the UGREEN 100W USB-C Multiport Charger. As the name implies, this is a charger with support for multiple ports that will let you charge multiple devices at once, cutting down on the need for you to bring multiple power adapters and look for multiple wall outlets.
Design
The design of the UGREEN 100W charger is about the size of a laptop charging brick. This makes it slightly bigger than the company’s 100W GaN charger which we had previously reviewed, but it is small enough where you could easily toss it inside of your backpack and be ready to go.
Alternatively, if you don’t move around a lot, the charger makes for a great desktop accessory where you can also help free up your wall outlets at home for charging or powering other devices like your monitor, speakers, or a table lamp.
According to UGREEN, it measures 5.39 x 4.84 x 2.6 inches and weighs around 1.35 pounds, which like we said, is small enough not to get in the way of your desktop at home, and also light enough where you can stuff it inside of a backpack without it weighing you down.
Multiple charging ports
As the name of the UGREEN 100W USB-C multiport charger implies, it supports multiple charging ports. There are four ports in total – 3x USB-C and 1x USB-A, so if you have legacy devices that have a USB-A connector on one end of the cable, you can use it with this charger without any issues.
As for its USB-C ports, there are three, but two of them will feature 100W output. The 100W output is perfect for juicing up more power-hungry devices like laptops and tablets.
With its 100W output, the charger delivers more than enough power to completely charge the average ultrabook in under two hours or charge two laptops at once. If you’re out working with a friend, you could charge your laptop and your friend’s laptop with just the single charger.
Built-in protection
A concern that some might have using third-party power adapters is whether or not they’re safe and compatible. In this case, users will be happy to hear that UGREEN claims that their charger offers wide compatibility with a variety of devices as long as they can be used with USB-C or USB-A.
It isn’t exclusive to Apple’s MacBook laptops and will also work with other laptops that rely on USB-C for their power needs. The charger comes with a built-in intelligent chip that protects it from damage while it is receiving power, which includes over-current, over-voltage, over-heating, and short circuits.
This means that you can safely leave your devices plugged in overnight and not have to worry that you’ll wake up the next day to a dead device.
Conclusion
If you’re looking for a multi-port charger to charge multiple devices at once, it’s hard to go wrong with UGREEN’s 100W USB-C Multiport Charger. Some of you might wonder why this instead of the company’s smaller 100W USB-C multiport GaN charger? The main difference is that with this model, it has a longer cable attaching it to a wall outlet.
This is versus the GaN charger which plugs directly into the outlet itself. If you’re a bit tight on space or like having a bit more wiggle room and flexibility when it comes to the charger’s placement, the extra cable length will come in handy.
