Looking to get a wall charger that can all your devices at maximum speed? I’ve tested 12+ of the most popular GaN Wall Chargers with wattages above 100W. I’ve done multiple speed tests involving solo charging, charging under max loads, multiple device charging through laptops and multiple device charging through the charger.

How about GaN charge stations or wall chargers with 6+ USB-C PD ports?
I use cuktech Gan charge it does not heat a lot
I have the 140 watt and use it mainly for phone and iPad and god damn pushes juice into my iPad Pro iPhone and can even get my Alienware to charge however the promise of 140 watt for that is up in the air. My Alienware X14 running a 3060 uses a 130 watt charger, and I know for a fact that when plugged into my Alienware it is not getting 140 watts as it boots in safe mode “slow charging mode” so keep that in mind for the extremely power hungry laptops.
I can not find most of the chargers in your video in EU plug versions, does just sticking an adapter on top not ruin the power?
"only happened 1 of 3 times", yes 33% of the time, very concerning
A very good review, especially as you included voltme in the list! ❤
Apple isn’t even known for chargers or charging speeds so the “should you invest in a NON apple charger” Question makes no sense
Why didn’t anker make it in this list?
What’s that elegant gentleman on the right doing there, is he a guest appearance?
Can you do a single port charging brick that you can leave in the nightstand? Also, pls include the anker ones too. Love your videos ❤
would be interesting to know longterm effects on your laptop messing with third party power stuff
I used your link for the Yellow one. Thanks!
I swear your dog is going to start his own Channel 😂. He is soaking it up.
When you do these Top 5 videos, could you also either do a Bottom 5 (of the ones you tested) in the same video or a separate video. It’s really helpful to know WHAT chargers to AVOID, for example.
Thank you very much, sir, for your exceptional service. I’ve decided to purchase the 140-watt Apple charger.
Wish you would have mentioned if any fall out of the wall outlet. I’ve noticed some fan chargers because of their size and weight will fall out of the wall outlets
I am not a fan of expensive charger. But when I saw the "FEEYOO" 210W charger, I knew it is the one. There are so many features on this charger that are just amazing. For people who need high power (like charging and using two laptop at once or even three laptops). This charger really stand out. For the $100 price take, it is just too much, luckily I got one for 50%. Check it out on the place you know where.
3:15 you say that as if that’s the be all end all answer to trusting a reviewer. I’m not saying that this is what you’re doing, but since you brought it up, someone in your position could still be fudging results to direct people towards a specific product in the lineup because you get a bigger kick back from that affiliate link out of the bunch. Which could technically still lead a “reviewer” to care about which product a viewer buys.
On a more positive note: good review. I respect the dedication. That’s a lotta chargers. And the addition of the dog dialog is cute.
No Anker?
Saltechi/ Belkin/amazon basic the best.😊
Monty with the tie lol
Where does the 120W Anker 737 stand in this list?
there is a new 140w prime charger with display from anker available right now in china or aliexpress. would love a review for that. they are launching it in 2025 i think in us.
Most useless review I’ve ever seen, without any tests, ugreen 140w still not revealed with charge test, ok
Let me tell you that Ao hi is actually a charger OEM for Xiaomi, OPPO, and Huawei. This is their own brand. I don’t know if Amazon sells the 140W Youth Edition. The efficiency and ripple will be lower. If you want your iPhone battery to stay healthy for a long time, you should pay attention to a standard "ripple" when choosing a charger. This is the most important factor affecting your battery health. Of course, if your country has a voltage of 110V, ignore this sentence. It also depends on the conversion efficiency. The pursuit of small size will only bring greater heat and reduce the power of the charger. This is something the manufacturer will not tell you directly. The last sentence is that Anker has a bad reputation in China. ❤
Thanks!
I am glad you put 1 million cuts and zooms and whatever in your video to make it not too boring for internet degenerated idiots with a 5 sec attention span.
you think that everyone is charging macbook..?
Great vid! I liked and subscribed because you didn’t ask to like and subscribe!
Why dont charger get small fans in them considering the sizes they come in
about ugreen maybe it made purposly, distribute heat to the body to make it passive cooling. you no idea what insides temperature other chergers. the plastics are different and temperature conduction is different too.
its 2024, and still USB A. Looks like human just cannot evolve. Means you can’t use all the ports without bringing another type of cable.
looookit that little duuuug
What is the best solo charger?
The guys developing power blocks and power banks have not realize that men want these things to look like rocket ship parts and other cool things. They keep making them boring and square.
Why not the 100W SlimQ or the 100W Baseus CCGAN100US? Both 4 ports.
what you NEVER test is stability over time. if I’m going to use any of these devices as a laptop charger, i need to know if it will support constant connection and charging like a proper laptop charger device, not just occasional connection
I heard dji has pretty powerful chargers for there drones I wish he reviewed that one too.
Best one is the Omega 100W USB-C GaN Charger from Chargeasap, by far. Everything else just sucks
Surprised to not see something like the Anker 747 in the top 5, especially since I see it on your desk 😀
What kept it off the list?
Why would anyone need a light to tell you if it if charging (ie has something connected) or not 😂
ANKER gan prime VS UGREEN Nexode Gan Pro. Which better ?
Don’t buy Aohi! On paper it looks amazing. Works well for a few months and then it decreases performance ALOT, and then just doesn’t charge anymore. Aohi also doesn’t honor their 18months warranty. Just buy a name brand charger, this is just going to give you a overpriced brick.
Came here for cool chargers these get too hot
Man I pugged my IPad and IPhone into the Aohi 140w, I woke up to both of them not charging, and for about 24hrs, neither of them would accept charging, they stopped at around 92/93% that nigh off the Aohi. They both rebounded eventually but suuuper slowly, like they would only trickle charge for the remainder of the day. I wouldn’t use that thing if you care about the life of your device. I think the product is defective of too powerful. Maybe for a beefy laptop it’s good, but for smaller things I don’t know.
Omitting the 150W Anker 747 is like omitting Michael Jordan from the top ten basketball players of all time. I have 3 of them and in no way is the Spigen better. What a joke of a review.
I can tell you how grateful am that im near China; they have so freaking many brand that are incredibly good while freaking cheap
Whenever I need to buy any sort of mobile/computer tech product, I always go to your channel. It is a ritual at this point, I know you are definetely soembody I can trust. Keep it up!
Thoughts on Redmagic Dao 150w?
The apple charger also has one (kinda cheating) advantage as well. Its free with a MacBook Pro which many might have already if you are looking for a 100+w 3rd party brick. The only downsides to this being if you are looking for a 100w brick to travel with and not a laptop, you only have 1 port.
