I was looking for a travel charger that I could use with both my new iPad Pro and my new iPhone 13 Pro Max. After a bit of searching, I found this one by Ugreen. It seemed to be what I was looking for, so I ordered it. This is actually a quite powerful charger for the size. There are only three ports on the charger…2-USB C and 1-USB. While that may not seem like a lot when compared to the other chargers out there, but that just makes more power available to each of the ports which is important when charging Apple devices. The charger is very solid. It’s made of a thick grade plastic that I can tell will hold up to extensive travel. The plug folds in when not in use and operates very smoothly. The fact that the charger is quite heavy, though, causes it to ‘droop’ when plugged in…as you can see in the picture. That’s not a good thing especially since the charger sticks out from the plug as far as it does. I can see it getting knocked into in the middle of the night. It would have been better if the long portion was flush against the wall. But it’s a very capable travel charger, so I will use it. I’ll just have to be careful not to knock it when I walk by.

This is another USB C Power Delivery charger from UGreen, it's really compact for a 65 watt charger (considering it has 3 ports, which automatically makes for a larger size). This is using GaN technology, meaning the main control chip is made from Gallium Nitride instead of standard silicon. It's only about 40% the size of a their other dual-port USB C chargers with a power output of 65 watts, even from the best brands like Anker. I am quite impressed that Ugreen was able to get this charger so small, especially since I reviewed one not that long enough that had this same power output and was twice the size. When using the USB C ports, either port can output 65w when being used alone with nothing else plugged in. If you use both USB C ports together then you can get 20w from one and 45w from the other (and it will automatically allocate the higher 45w output to the port that needs it). This is great because a lot of dual port USB C chargers have a fixed orientation, meaning that only one specific port is capable of outputting the most power. The USB A port at the bottom is able to output a maximum of 22.5w when used alone. If you use all three ports at one time, you will get 45w from the top USB C port, and another 17w will be shared between the remaining USB C and USB A port. This PD charger is capable of charging a 13" MacBook Pro at the full speed when using only one port (65 watts). It could also charge an iPhone and MacBook Air together, while delivering the fastest charge possible for both. Likewise, it could charge an iPhone and M1 iPad Pro at the same time while fast charging both at the full speed. If you had a larger 15-16" laptop or one of the newer M1 Pro/M1 Max laptops, it wouldn't be able to charge those at the full speed and a 100w PD charger would be what you would need. Pros+ Very small size for a PD charger with two USB C ports and one USB A port Solid and durable, should last a long time Affordable compared to some of the more premium USB C PD chargers, but works just as well Can automatically deliver the right amount of power to the correct port (can do 20w+45w, from both ports, interchangeably) Cons- The bottom USB C port can't fast charge while you are using the USB A port, when the two are used to together, you can only get a shared 17 watts between the two No USB C cable is included

This UGREEN 65W USB C Multiport Power Adapter measures 2.59" x 1.57" x 1.22" and weighs 4.5 ounces. This UGREEN 65W USB C Multiport Power Adapter uses Gallium Nitride or (GaN II Tech) which allows for better thermals which are important when plugs power multiple devices or at high speeds. I put this plug through a full gauntlet of devices charging my M1 MacBook Air, Samsung S21, iPhone 13, M1 iPad Pro, and several other items including a mag safe charger. Whatever I threw at this UGREEN 65W USB C Multiport Power Adapter powered them fast and efficiently without generating too much heat. What I liked most about this UGREEN 65W USB C Multiport Power Adapter was: - Build quality. This power adapter feels well constructed and that gave me the confidence to trust it to power my expensive tech. - Heat distribution. I have other 65W+ chargers and some of them can get quite warm under a full load. This one does a good job with heat distribution. - Portability. The combination of this wall adapter's size, weight, and foldable prongs make it a welcome addition for my daily commute. - Hits the sweet spot. When I look for a plug to take with me it needs to be powerful enough to fast charge my M1 MacBook Air or M1 iPad Pro or fast charge a couple of phones. This charger has the power to keep me productive on the go and when combined with its portability, this UGreen Charger hits the sweet spot for usefulness and portability. What I liked least about this UGREEN 65W USB C Multiport Power Adapter was: - The power distribution is confusing. The 2-port power distribution is particularly confusing. For example, if you use both USB C ports the top port delivers 20-watt charging while the top port only delivers 20-watt charging. However, if you use the top USB C port and the USB A port the top port will deliver 45 watts while the USB port delivers 18 watts. If for some reason you use the 2nd USB C port and the USB A port you'll only get 8.5 watts out of each port. It's just an unintuitive power distribution heuristic that I do not appreciate. Overall, if you are in the market for a single charger that can top off multiple devices fast this UGreen power adapter should be on your shortlist. This UGREEN 65W USB C Multiport Power Adapter is well constructed, energy efficient, highly portable, and hits the sweet spot for everything I seek in a carry-on power adapter. The only word of caution I'd give with this item is learning the power distribution of this plug. It is NOT intuitive IMHO so you'll want to keep the manual close by or take a screenshot of it from its product description as I did. 4.5 out of 5.0.

I'm fairly please with this small, multi-port charger. It's powerful enough to run a MacBook Pro, but only about half the size of the Apple power brick. Using a USB power meter I've measured the USB C ports putting out the maximum 65W, as advertised (note that you're not going to get 65W on everything you charge - charging an Apple Watch series 7 it was only 5v, .5 amps = 2.5 watts, but that was sufficient to take it from empty to full in just a little over an hour). I really like that there's two USB C ports so that I can have my phone and watch charger plugged in at the same time and still have the USB A port for another device. It's compact, looks nice, feels nice, works great. I'd recommend it.
