The tech world is constantly evolving, and with that comes an ever-increasing need for efficient and powerful charging solutions. Enter the Nexode GaN 100W Laptop USB C Charger (model number 90929), a sleek and compact charger promising to handle all your charging needs. Over the past few weeks, I’ve put this charger through its paces, testing its capabilities and exploring its features. This review details my experience with the 90929, highlighting its strengths and weaknesses.

The Nexode 90929 boasts a compelling array of features. Its four ports – three USB-C and one USB-A – allow for simultaneous charging of multiple devices. The ability to deliver up to 100W via a single USB-C port is a significant advantage, enabling fast charging of power-hungry laptops like the MacBook Air (M2). Support for a variety of fast charging protocols, including PD 3.0/2.0, QC 4.0/3.0/2.0, AFC, and PPS, ensures broad compatibility and optimized charging speeds across a range of devices. The intelligent power distribution feature dynamically adjusts the output to meet the individual needs of each connected device, preventing overloading and ensuring efficient charging.

The compact size and sleek grey design make it a welcome addition to any workspace, and the use of GaN technology contributes to its efficient operation and reduced heat generation. Safety features, including protection against short circuits, overvoltage, overheating, and overcurrent, add peace of mind.

During my testing, the Nexode 90929 consistently lived up to its claims. Charging my MacBook Air (M2) was remarkably fast, consistently achieving a full charge in under 1.5 hours, as advertised. I also tested it with multiple devices simultaneously, including an iPhone 14 Pro Max, an iPad Pro, and a pair of wireless earbuds, all charging without issue. The charger remained cool to the touch, even under heavy load, demonstrating the effectiveness of its GaN technology and intelligent power distribution.

I also appreciated the broad compatibility. It flawlessly charged my various Android devices, including a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, as well as a range of other devices.

Pros:

• Fast charging speeds
• Multiple ports for simultaneous charging
• Compact and stylish design
• Broad device compatibility
• Effective heat management

The Nexode GaN 100W Laptop USB C Charger (90929) is a high-performing and versatile charging solution. Its speed, multiple port functionality, and broad compatibility make it an excellent choice for anyone needing a reliable and efficient way to charge multiple devices simultaneously. While the price might be a slight deterrent for some, the overall performance and convenience justify the cost for power users who value efficiency and speed. I would highly recommend this charger.
