What the specs mean for you

Max output

45W

Fast-charges phones (iPhone 15+ and Android) and small tablets. Too little for most laptops.

Total ports

1

Compact: the essentials for travel or a light setup.

Why people pick it

  • Full 45W USB-C PD output in a 34 x 35.5 x 40 mm body
  • Display shows live wattage, and model plus battery level for iPhone 15 and later
  • Care Mode caps output at 20W for gentler overnight charging
  • Prongs lock at 90° or 180°, so it fits tight outlets and behind furniture

Know before you buy

  • Single USB-C port, so one device at a time
  • No cable in the box
  • No 5A PPS on this version, so Galaxy S22+/S23+/S24+ and Ultra models charge below their top speed
  • Device recognition only works with iPhone 15 and later and recent iPads
