I’ve done a major update to my Nintendo Switch speed ratings for USB-C chargers. I’ve added a new rating level and adjusted where certain charger specs fall on the chart.
First Look At the Anker PowerPort Atom PD 2
One of the Atom series USB-C chargers shown off at CES. It promised to offer two USB-C ports, with up to 60W output. But little else was known… until now.
Xiaomi Mi Power Bank 3 Review
The Xiaomi Mi Power Bank 3 is one of a series of popular power banks globally. It supports a wide range of fast charging standards. But violates USB-C specs to do so.
BlitzWolf BW-S10 30W USB PD Review
A 30W USB-C PD charger with a built-in EU plug. Will fast charge the Nintendo Switch in handheld mode. Good for anyone living in or visiting Europe.
Anker PowerPort II PD Review
A USB-C and USB-A dual port charger. Ideal for travel or a second home/office charger. It’ll fast charge most USB-C devices from a phone up to a 12-inch laptop.
Solice 20000 Type-C Review
A large capacity, 18W USB-C and Quick Charge budget power bank. It performs as advertised. But in a larger and heavier form than is necessary.
Nintendo Switch AC Adapter Review
Review for the Nintendo Switch AC Adapter, a decent charger best kept behind your TV and dedicated to the Switch’s dock.
Apple 61W USB-C Power Adapter Review
Apple’s USB-C power adapter included with 2016-2017 13-inch MacBook Pros. Designed with only Apple products in mind. It is a good example of how ignoring USB-C standards makes a charger less useful for other devices.
Novoo 85W AC Portable Power Station Review
A power station offering 15W USB-C, Quick Charge, and an 85W AC outlet for larger devices. Capable of running a docked Nintendo Switch for up to 3 hours. As well as charge your smaller devices.
Anker PowerPort Speed PD 30 Review
A classic, if bit dated 30W USB-C PD wall charger. Anker’s new GaN using 30W USB-C PD charger is a fraction of the size. But if you must have folding prongs from an Anker charger this one will work just as well.
