The Ugreen Nexode 100W charger utilizes gallium nitride semiconductor technology, which allows for a smaller physical footprint and improved thermal efficiency compared to traditional silicon-based adapters. The device features a foldable plug design intended to improve portability for travel.
The unit is equipped with four ports, consisting of three USB Type-C connections and one USB Type-A port. When using a compatible 100W, 5A cable, a single USB Type-C port can output up to 100W of power. The manufacturer states this capacity can charge a MacBook Air M3 to 55% in less than 30 minutes.
The charger is compatible with various devices, including Apple laptops, Samsung smartphones, and the Steam Deck. Ugreen notes that charging speeds for certain Dell and Lenovo laptops may be restricted by protocol limitations. Safety features include integrated temperature sensors and a PWM chip for power management.
The Ugreen Nexode 100W is currently available on Amazon for $39.98. This price reflects a 27 percent discount from its standard retail value.
