Just found your channel while researching the lighter USBC, 45W adapter to go into my travel kit. I am a digital nomad and travel full-time, only traveling with a personal carry-on item stored under my seat. So weight, volume, and ability to power my laptop are very important to me. Thank you so much for your in-depth reviews. Subscribed! EDIT: with the Anker 313 currently at $20, it provides great value. :)
The single port chargers will always have a leg up on the multi ports one. But it's easy to see that theres still something that can be done to improve the charging performance even further.
Does port 2 on the UGREEN really lack 15V support, or is that just a mistake in the manual? And does the Anker 47W really have a fixed 11V mode, or is that a 12V mode mislabeled PPS mode?
I just picked up the Anker 313 (A2677) ACE (15$ usd) branding data has added PPS from this one and is now. PPS: 3.3V-11V ⎓5A / 3.3V-16V⎓3A/ 3.3V-21V⎓2.25A I'm powering a Raspberry Pi 5 from this the PPS DC 5A is of note here. Thanks for the content, it's a huge help!
Nice! Thanks for sharing. Yeah, it's pretty rare to find an adapter that can go to 5A at 5V. Does the Pi ask for the PPS mode or do you use an adapter?
@@AllThingsOnePlace It doesn't ask, the (pd)is handled in the firmware from my understanding. The Pi 5 uses a new usb-c connector for power now but are very strict with the types of psu. So here we are with this :)
I am very glad sir you managed to review these newer Anker chargers. I was really looking forward to Anker 313 since I am considering it as my next phone/laptop charger. It is a bummer they don't make lower watt chargers with power factor correction but these look okay and I would say Anker is reliable. Also it is not expensive, it's actually cheaper than the Samsung 45w charger and also smaller which is great for travelling. Thank you very much for this review, looking forward to many more.
@@AllThingsOnePlacehey there! Which Anker charger would you suggest since you’ve tested them all: I’m looking for a charger for two USB-C ports so I can charge my iPhone and iPad at the same time (and maybe a MacBook with one port if needed) and want to take it with me. Is the Nano Pro good for this? Looking for safety with heat n all as well
@@AllThingsOnePlace I need two USB-Cs unfortunately, unless there's a version for that too? Anyway, thanks! I might just stick to charging one at a time otherwise during travel!
Hi, I really like your review as you are doing something very special when others just talked about the specification on the box. here are some ideas for reviews other than power adaptors, USB cables: as a consumer, USB cables are very confusing due to capability and compatibility, KVM Switches, so many in the market but I have not foudn a review that actually considered details like the way you review usb charger. I am particular interested KVM switch that is for PC & Mac, with two 4k monitors output. Good luck with your channel.
I have done some USB cables stuff, new video on that this upcoming Saturday too. www.allthingsoneplace.com/usb-cables hmmm KVM could be interesting. I have some ancient ones, I could do a comparison between the old ones and now. Thanks for the suggestion.
Thanks for the detailed review, among the best on YT imo. @4:56 you're saying that once a second cable is connected (Ugreen) - we loose many modes of operation. Is that something that can be seen on the device specs? In other words is there a way to know this other than checking it with lab equipment like you have here? 🙏
They sometimes show this in the user manual, sometimes it's in the marketing specifications but yeah, sometimes they don't show it at all. Newer devices have been better at stating that the modes change with more devices plugged in. You can use things like the FIRNSI or the Power Z to check modes on each port, but that gets expensive too.
I have that 523 (47W Anker), and it runs hot. Also, my little $15 tester shows more resistance with it than older Anker chargers, or even my trusty 65W AmazonBasics, which has been rock solid.
@@AllThingsOnePlaceYeah, I’m not sure where resistance comes into play when comparing adapters (given the same cable… the cable being where resistance matters), but my tester shows a higher ohm value with the 523 than it does with even older chargers of various sizes (again, keeping the cable the same). Should I ignore the ohm value as irrelevant when comparing chargers?
I'm slightly confused - you say the PPS mode on the Anker 313 can do 4A but the manual says it maxes out at 3A (1:37) for the PPS. Am I misunderstanding the concept?
I just checked it again, it can do 4 amps on the PPS mode, I think the user manual is just not clear that it also has an 11V mode. It does require a 100w emarked cable though.
The decreasing price of the 45W class chargers was one of the big points of this video. Even the Anker devices have dropped in price recently. I just ordered the ugreen 45W for $16 today. I didn't know it only supported lower voltages when both ports were in use. A little disappointing but not enough to return it. I think if I wanted more power than 45W I'd go for >100W with PFC and PD 3.1.
Hi, your Voltage Ripple measurement results (single digit or low double digit.) are way below what I've measured and also seen in other reviews. For example, I would be happy to see Ripple below 100 mV at 5V output. Can you please elaborate? Thanks in advance!
Yeah, I didn’t like it either, I was expecting 40 or 50mV and up on higher voltage settings. They are RMS AC voltage but my equipment for this is not accurate enough at mV resolution (old scope), not cool old, like junk old. I wanted to give it a go and bandwidth has to be majorly limited somewhere in the chain. The load being in constant power may also have something to do with it though. It’s constantly adjusting to keep power constant. Anyway, I am on the lookout for a bench multimeter (if even possible) with good ac bandwidth and ac millivolt (can be rms or pkpk) measurement or a scope but also trying not to spend thousands of dollars on one. I know siglent and gwinstek make cheap scopes, not sure they’d be any better though.
Have you ever tried comparing differenced between 2 power adapters of the same kind? Like buying from differen stores or countries so they whould be made in different batches and seeing consistency. If all of their products have same statistics or if there is some kind of variantion depending on the build.
Yes, several times. I compared dell 90w laptop adapters, apple 5w adapters, I compared several models and years of APD power adapters (those were not reliable and had variance, also significantly older). Even with the different models and years of adapters they mostly all do the same. Even two purchased at the same time, which I have done a couple times also, one of the Anker 3 series, same. The minix/invzi are clones, same results. All the 140W adapter clones, all got almost exactly the same results. So, in general, even across manufacturers these things tend to be very close. The uncertainty on the low end is higher in measurements as PF and THD contribute, these add variance to the more precisely measured parameters like amps and volts.
06:29 you said that the Anker 523 won't support 45 watts for Samsung, but the output did mention 15v - 3A. Did I miss something you said? I really appreciate if you explain this
Samsung uses, PPS so 9V (variable voltage mode) and 5 Amps to achieve 45 watts. So, typically a device will need the 11V mode with 5 amps of current to be able to get to this power level. It may have a 45w mode but it isn't the one that they use or have historically use, it would be great if they expanded to more modes. I haven't looked into the latest devices so maybe they did.
@papasmurf6312 no, it wasn't. It was the charger. Wasn't using that cable. Also tried 3 different cables that show wattage IRT. Clearly could see power throttling. Switched the Samsung 45W charger and it charges at 43W, takes less than an hour to charge
The anker 313 45w def does 21v/2.25A. I've been able to hit over 30w on my pixel 9 xl multiple times with the battery at about 42%. People are also posting 0-100% charging times on forums and youtube that are in line with the official adapter and samsung's 45w adapter.
As of now, the Anker Nano II 45W is in my camera bag, the Baseus 100W wall charger is my portable charger, and the 165W Satechi 4 port is my home base unit.
Hmm, I'd expect the Samsung to be a bit better quality wise and in terms of longevity, but it is a larger adapter. The 313 is much more space optimized but it's going to get hotter and probably have a shorter lifespan as a consequence of heat.
@@AllThingsOnePlace Samsung was already ordered few days ago :) Thanks for your answer! Appreciate. What about wireless charger? Should i look into Samsung?
The Samsung official 45W charger is a good unit. It is a bit larger and I'd expect it to last a little longer because it doesn't get quite as hot as the Anker units. If size and weight is the primary concern then the Anker wins. For PPS mode charging both are good options though.
It would make an interesting video if you tested and analyzed a ton of dirt cheap chargers, even ones from Temu and stuff just to spread awareness about using certified chargers that are safe and work well.
I think I did that. In ua-cam.com/video/3Upj6zR_gyo/v-deo.html I also made a short on that more recently. It's like whack-a-mole though so there's always bad stuff out there.
So the UGREEN does not support charging a laptop and a phone together? even at a slower rate? my phone tops out at 20W and I was planning on getting this for the rare occasion i might need to charge both together, but if that doesn't work might aswell just go for the single port anker
Just a quick question about the Ugreen, You said that there isn’t a safety listing for North America, I’m looking on tuv reinhands database and I’m able to find this model and the latest necked mini 30 watt on there. Is that not for the North American market? Just making sure
Yeah, they don’t have any us listings as far as I know. Some have Japanese listings and other listings I’ve found on the tuv website also. Some have no listings at all though.
@@AllThingsOnePlace so the ones like for example on tuv themselves when you search up Ugreen and they give the model. Those are for Japan specifically? Because again, they have listings there.
@@robnavarro9405 I haven't looked up every single one, but the ones I have seen have been TUV PSE for Japan. Which I also tore one down and the construction looked good inside. It doesn't mean that all of them are that for all time and with no exceptions. I've probably only been hands on with 10% of what UGREEN sells so could even be the minority.
@@AllThingsOnePlacegood to know, thanks for your reply. I love your content. If I could ask, could you tear down the Nomadgoods GAN chargers? I understand if you can’t
Great video. I was wondering what would be an advantage of getting the Anker 523 compared to Anker 735 GanPrime (65w, 3 port) when it can go on sale for $40-45 (and cost can be similar between the two)? The latter can probably charge a greater range of laptops.
Yeah, excellent point. The 65w is slightly heavier and larger but splitting hairs. I guess the challenge is when the 523 is on sale but yeah the 65W gives you an extra port an a few extra modes with a QC USB A port.
Very nice videos. I had already bought ugreen nexode 65watt charger and quite satisfied with its performance. I am usinh it to charge my iphone 16pro max and ultra watch. Shall i be concerned about safety of it damaging my iphone? Shall i upgrade Anker Ganprime 67watt?
If it's working, I wouldn't change anything. I don't think it poses any safety risk to the phone itself or any additional damage risk over anything else... The phone/device generally decides how much power to consume not the charger so it won't force too many watts in. It might not be the best one but if it ain't broke don't fix it.
@ thank U. Bt if i have the option to go with anker ganPrime 67watt charger instead of Ugreen nexode 65watt, shall i go for it? I know u have reviewed that as well and its idle performance is not good, bt considering Anker is more responsible brand shall i go for Anker Ganprime 67watt?
Are there any examples of devices that use PPS? Samsung and Google Pixel's are the only two I know of that use it, but only up to 10V. Is there a downside to getting a charger than only does 11V or 16V max PPS?
Yeah, I've been on the lookout for devices that use the higher voltage PPS. I haven't found any. Samsung does go to 11V on some phones. The point of PPS is it is variable so if the mode is 16, but the device needs 10, it will get 10. The issue comes down to current with that voltage. What current can the power adapter deliver and is that being negotiated to and I think that leads to some issues with chargers. The 313 is made to better support that lower voltage PPS mode though.
I kind of sort of did? Well, three videos on USB cables and a webpage. It isn't specifically on that one topic. The page is sorted by resistance, with lowest resistance at the top, surprise the shorter cables are at the top. www.allthingsoneplace.com/usb-cables
I am still wondering what the difference is between the Nano II and the 315 (both 65 watt). Does that 315 still uses GAN 2? There is no mention of it in the marketing anymore.
@@AllThingsOnePlace I asked Anker, so i let you know when i got a response. In the comparison table they have they listed next 2 each other with no differences, except for the appearence and the 2 watts of course.
@@AllThingsOnePlace I got an answer from Anker: After thorough research, I can confirm that from a charging perspective, there is not a significant difference between these two adapters. Both of them are based on the GaN II technology, which is known for its efficiency and compactness. The primary difference between the two lies in their power output. The 315 adapter offers a slightly higher power output of 67 watts, compared to the Nano II's 65 watts. This means that the 315 adapter can potentially charge your devices slightly faster. However, this 2-watt difference is quite minimal and may not significantly impact the charging speed in practical use.
The 7 series is almost always the better charger, but it really comes down to wattage. Also, there is a little bit of luck of a draw with the 15 pro max, it is incompatible with a random selection of chargers. But baring that issue, either charger is fine.
It should work for a smaller macbook air with m series chips. I think apple ships them with a 35 watt adapter. If you upgrade the components to max I think it bumps up to a 70W adapter though.
@@AllThingsOnePlace I was going to get the 70 watt but I 2 arguments saying it kills the battery due to excessive heating and that the constant quick charging also further kills the battery yet there's not a single video on UA-cam or evidence on Reddit about what the battery temps are or temperatures in a MacBook Air as there's no active cooling. my MacBook Air will be on a vesa monitor stand so lots of ventilation but all the comments have me kind of nervous to use the 70 watt as a regular day to charger so hence I was looking at a lower watt 45.
It is part of the process of getting more voltage, so anything will higher voltage will do that. The difference is all the other ports renegotiate on a plug unplug of one port. The higher wattage devices have limited functionality in this regard. For the example the (well some of the) 200W chargers will keep two ports active at a time without any switching off and back on again. Obviously, anything single port is fine since there's only one device. On the lower wattages though, no, everything I have found resets on plug of second device.
Which adapter would you recommend for charging a s22 plus.. samsung 25 wats charger or anker 25 watts [power port 3] .. Both are at same price.. what would you recommend.
I love your videos I have learned a lot these days, but so in terms of quality anker and ugreen are practically the same or which one do you prefer and why?, I plan to buy the 30w NEXODE but I had doubts, Sorry if my English is bad, greetings from R.D.
I think Anker is a little better on the quality side now, I know they've had issues before too, and still do sometimes. They are the established premium brand. UGREEN wants to be that and is trying but at least in the US market doesn't seem to want to get things safety listed which is why I shrug them off as second tier.
@@AllThingsOnePlace thank you very much for answering! Personally I would also like them to be registered in the US security list too, I agree with you, what happened to me is that I have recently purchased a new 20w anker nano pro which fails me, on some occasions it cuts the power and works again as if it were restarted and that worries me especially for my switch and s22, so I wanted to change it but that thorn stuck, I have an old no gan anker 20w charger which works without problems but I wanted to update it.
Very impressive information on the nothing phone webpage. They tell you exactly what it needs! 45W PPS (3.3~20V/2.25A) wired charging: full charge in 55 mins So simple, if the charger has one of those modes then you are good. Depending on the PPS voltage it looks like it will charge faster or slower. The 313 should top out for charging speed.
These are isolated things. Power Quality in reference to a power adapter is an Alternating Current or AC metric related to efficiency and other parameters.
wich charger you would recommnded for iphone 15 pro? sometimes i would like to charger other phones/ diveces like cycling computers etc. so not high wattege needed, but 2 ucb-c slots or usb-c and usb a would nice to have. The most i value is effeciency and durability. reading comments about anker 523 heating up, it makes me wonder how much it is effecting durabilty 🤔 do you have experince combability aplle devices? Thanks your vid. it is really cool to see someone putting this much effort finding out and testing stuff! keep going mate! 🤩🤩
Yeah, specifically, no recommendations for that one device. But just as a general use case for lots of lower powered devices, you may end up with something like the Baseus 100W GaN3 desktop, it has two USB A ports though so use those for the low powered devices, two C ports for phones. This is a bit over the power level needed, but generally can be had for a reasonable price and won't get too hot since you aren't taxing it to it's power limit. It is also very efficient.
I know you made videos on Aohi products before, but I was wondering you can review their 120w desktop charger next? They recently released a 240w “modular” extension cable as well, but it’s a bit over the top for anyone since it’s $109+.
The A2677 version is called Anker 313 Ace (released Jan 2023) and the A2643 one is called Anker 313 Ace 2 (released July 2023) with bigger size, perhaps for better heat dissipation. But I have no clue how the ACE 2 perform compare to the ACE 1 in this review, is it better or is it worse?
did you ever make a vid about efficiency of MagSafe chargers ? i assume they behave the same as Qi chargers ??? i tried to google the efficiency and was shocked to read it's 70% i don't know how accurate that is and that was for wireless charging so no differentiation with Qi 2 and the new magsafe.. After yesterday's apple event the 25w magsafe charger sounds good at night it does require a 30w usb-c charger so i was looking at 30W chargers looks like Anker is still the best for less waist still during the night a 15w Qi2 would be enough. Something like the "UGREEN Foldable 2 in 1 iPhone Charging Dock " looks good as a night stand dock. Thanks for al the awesome work you do.
Yeah, 70% not including the wall charger, mostly any testing I've seen on it is done DC to DC, haha. There's also a ton of variance sample to sample and the whole idle power issue, which they very carefully never mention anywhere. Wireless charging is getting better though. Eventually I will make a video about it, but iFixit's short video on it is pretty good. Basically, it's a lot worse than using a cable.
@@AllThingsOnePlace haha wat a good point the wall charger forgot all about it! That’s the difference between a pro like your self and me haha 😂 I use magnetic adapters those you can buy on aliexpress work with pins the remind me of pogo pins it’s a physical connection there’s a magnetic piece you connect on the device and a piece you connect on the cable transforming it to a MagSafe connection like find on MacBooks I have bought several brands use them for everything like connecting mechanical keyboards and charging my iPad that’s on usb-c. Do you know the adapters I’m talking about?
As an owner of the 45W Nexode charger, I can confirm it does not support 45W Super Fast Charging 2.0 for Samsung device. Despite being PPS capable, it only maxes out at 25W..so Super Fast Charging 1.0. Yes, I've used a a 5A cable and no other devices plugged in.
friend, sales from Brazil. On the ugreen page itself, it warns that only the EU plug can get pps 45, the rest in uk, us, kr the maximum will be 25w I liked this ugreen, I think I'll get one.
I don't know. This is the wait until everyone else gets all the viral videos out channel, then like 3 months later I put out a video about it, haha. I had a look around Samsung's webpage and as usual, nothing at all, even in the 173 page user manual, not one mention of how to charge it! Even apple has a dedicated page like, it works like this... I guess they assume users can't handle that much information.
Hello my friend, I hope you help me. I would like to buy 2 chargers: 1x with one connection and 1x dual. For the dual it would be Anker 523 47W or UGreen 45W and the singles the 30w versions. All the same price .Can you please give me some advice 😅
@@AllThingsOnePlace I ordered both to compare. I think ugreen feels more stable but Anker is the better brand. Anker warmed up faster during a test according to an app (I don't know if it's good or meaningful) . I have to send one back but I don't know which one yet. According to a test, Anker achieved 980 mamp, which I never achieved with ugreen, a maximum of 860, but Anker always failed in further tests
Buenas noches, el cargador de Samsung de 45W es una buena opción para cargar un portátil. Pienso comprarlo ya que además el cable que incluye ne será de gran ayuda. Hay alguna opción que me recomiendes para esta categoría de 45W? Gracias 👍
The 45w Samsung charger isn’t bad. These usually come with a 100w capable 5a cable too. The main question is if your laptop will operate within the 45 watt power available from the Samsung power adapter. Many will but you’ll have to check the specifications for your machine.
@@AllThingsOnePlace Supongo que sí, en el instructivo solo indica que necesita un cargador PD. El portátil es capaz de cargar con un cargador de 33W, aunque de una forma lenta. PD.: La fuente incluida con el portátil es de 45W
Doesn't mean it is broken as some do leak worse than others. Tolerances on transformers, or an over capacity suppression capacitor. If it is too noticeable I'd replace it before it becomes a problem.
Great video, as always!! The Anker 313 has great efficiency in the low-power zone (5-20 W). For charging smartphones it looks like an excellent choice. Do you think it would qualify as one of the best (if not the best) product in the 45 W class?
@@AllThingsOnePlaceis there a better choice than anker 313 at that low wattage range? (5-20w) particularly thinking about battery long life, it's fine if it takes some time to charge...
what will happen if you charge your samsung S23 ultra with samsung 25W charger which is not that great amongst chargers (compared to some of the better ones)? will it cause faster degradation of the battery? thank you.
The degradation of the battery won't be affected by charger statistics. Only reason I can think of it affecting it is if more heat is produced due to higher current draw from the battery (which requires a negotiation between the phone's charging IC as well as the SRC's controller)
@@Robbyjonesy A good charger will be more reliable in the long run in terms of thermals and build quality, but between different models of good chargers it will mostly be the same with small differences scattered throughout
Yeah, temperature probably plays a bigger role than anything. A larger charger will get warmer, so if the phone is getting hotter during charging that may accelerate degradation of cells but the difference with modern charge controllers is probably negligible. They'll slow down the charge speed as soon as things get too warm. A cheap charger probably will charge slower, although the charger may not be safe or may get hotter because itself is inefficient, the phone probably doesn't care.
"Hey, I stumbled upon the AOHI 240W The Future Creative Power Cable Set and I'm curious about it. I was wondering if you could look and share your thoughts on it? It seems like a promising product, and I'm interested in investing in it, but I'd love to hear your opinion before making a purchase. Thanks in advance for your time and keep up the great content!"
Wow, that is some crazy expensive USB cable. So, it's an extension cord and a couple short cables? Each connector adds more resistance and USB C is not a great connector for that so that probably will do quite poorly by unit length in terms of charging efficiency and resistance.
So, if someone is willing to pay for the Samsung 45W charger, for a s23 ultra phone wanting the best SFC 2.0, is it the best charger to get? I've had no problems with any Samsung charger
@@didamnesia3575hello, do you have any idea where to buy the original 45w charger online?, if you say Amazon from which seller should I get it, thanks in advance
That is weird. They basically made this adapter for that. It does depend on charge state of the device but yeah anything lower than 50% should hold that status. Thanks for sharing.
@AllThingsOnePlace I'll do more tests and I'll order a different cable that gives Wattage, i have one but just to be sure. I have a proper voltmeter but I'm not actually adept at using it for more than basic home repair. In any case, I have a few different chargers here and 2 s23 ultras, haven't yet seen anything above 35W. The anker 313, ugreen 45w dual port, tecknet 65w, a few 25W Samsung chargers are the ones I currently have. When charging in the 30% range Samsung and 313 hold steady at 25W under fast charging, Tecknet holds at 30W, Ugreen does the fluctuations and appears to turn off but it cycles from 0-35 Watts over 10s and keeps that cycle up. It charges the fastest and coolest but without a printout of wattage over time I'm not specifically sure what is happening. For right now a few more days of tests to be sure and from a less than 10%. I also purchased the Samsung branded wireless chargers and those seem fine.
@@didamnesia3575 hmm, I don't think that would matter. An online UPS recreates a sinewave so would be changing the output versus what is supplied by the mains, a switching UPS, is just directly connected to the mains with a relay so that would no different. Keep me posted on your results though.
For lower wattage charging anker, ugreen, Samsung ones all seem pretty good. For higher wattages, anker prime adapters mostly seem pretty good, baseus 100w adapters seem good in general.

Thanks! and Welcome back!
The single port chargers will always have a leg up on the multi ports one. But it's easy to see that theres still something that can be done to improve the charging performance even further.
Yeah, I like the multiport ones, as I said, with more watts. I do keep the 45W nano II in my camera bag though because it is too convenient not to.
I'm still dreaming about APFC in every brick. Maybe even one per group of ports in multi ports chargers.
Does port 2 on the UGREEN really lack 15V support, or is that just a mistake in the manual? And does the Anker 47W really have a fixed 11V mode, or is that a 12V mode mislabeled PPS mode?
The user manual in both cases is incorrect. The UGREEN has 15V and the Anker 11V mode is PPS. Excellent finds!
I really like the flat vertical form factor of the one anker charger. When you need to push furniture against a wall, most adapters don’t fit well.
Yep, they certainly have a purpose.
I just picked up the Anker 313 (A2677) ACE (15$ usd) branding data has added PPS from this one and is now. PPS: 3.3V-11V ⎓5A / 3.3V-16V⎓3A/ 3.3V-21V⎓2.25A I'm powering a Raspberry Pi 5 from this the PPS DC 5A is of note here. Thanks for the content, it's a huge help!

Hi, I really like your review as you are doing something very special when others just talked about the specification on the box. here are some ideas for reviews other than power adaptors, USB cables: as a consumer, USB cables are very confusing due to capability and compatibility, KVM Switches, so many in the market but I have not foudn a review that actually considered details like the way you review usb charger. I am particular interested KVM switch that is for PC & Mac, with two 4k monitors output. Good luck with your channel.
I have done some USB cables stuff, new video on that this upcoming Saturday too. www.allthingsoneplace.com/usb-cables
hmmm KVM could be interesting. I have some ancient ones, I could do a comparison between the old ones and now. Thanks for the suggestion.
6:21 you said Anker 523 support PPS up to 16V, but nowhere in the documentation does it say that. Can you confirm?
It does, just verified, full 45W output at 16V too.
Thanks for the detailed review, among the best on YT imo. @4:56 you're saying that once a second cable is connected (Ugreen) - we loose many modes of operation. Is that something that can be seen on the device specs? In other words is there a way to know this other than checking it with lab equipment like you have here? 🙏
They sometimes show this in the user manual, sometimes it's in the marketing specifications but yeah, sometimes they don't show it at all. Newer devices have been better at stating that the modes change with more devices plugged in. You can use things like the FIRNSI or the Power Z to check modes on each port, but that gets expensive too.
I have that 523 (47W Anker), and it runs hot. Also, my little $15 tester shows more resistance with it than older Anker chargers, or even my trusty 65W AmazonBasics, which has been rock solid.
More resistance? But also, not surprised on the heat front. Good to hear the AmazonBasics one is still going.
@@AllThingsOnePlaceYeah, I’m not sure where resistance comes into play when comparing adapters (given the same cable… the cable being where resistance matters), but my tester shows a higher ohm value with the 523 than it does with even older chargers of various sizes (again, keeping the cable the same). Should I ignore the ohm value as irrelevant when comparing chargers?
I'm slightly confused - you say the PPS mode on the Anker 313 can do 4A but the manual says it maxes out at 3A (1:37) for the PPS. Am I misunderstanding the concept?
I just checked it again, it can do 4 amps on the PPS mode, I think the user manual is just not clear that it also has an 11V mode. It does require a 100w emarked cable though.
The decreasing price of the 45W class chargers was one of the big points of this video. Even the Anker devices have dropped in price recently.
I just ordered the ugreen 45W for $16 today. I didn't know it only supported lower voltages when both ports were in use. A little disappointing but not enough to return it.
I think if I wanted more power than 45W I'd go for >100W with PFC and PD 3.1.
.
Hi, your Voltage Ripple measurement results (single digit or low double digit.) are way below what I've measured and also seen in other reviews. For example, I would be happy to see Ripple below 100 mV at 5V output. Can you please elaborate? Thanks in advance!
Yeah, I didn’t like it either, I was expecting 40 or 50mV and up on higher voltage settings. They are RMS AC voltage but my equipment for this is not accurate enough at mV resolution (old scope), not cool old, like junk old. I wanted to give it a go and bandwidth has to be majorly limited somewhere in the chain. The load being in constant power may also have something to do with it though. It’s constantly adjusting to keep power constant. Anyway, I am on the lookout for a bench multimeter (if even possible) with good ac bandwidth and ac millivolt (can be rms or pkpk) measurement or a scope but also trying not to spend thousands of dollars on one. I know siglent and gwinstek make cheap scopes, not sure they’d be any better though.
Okay thanks for your video it was great, so, finally… would you recommend buying the ugreen 45w? Or what do you mean about lacking safe
Opinion, I would choose one with some safety listing, but both are for sale so it is really up to you.
@@AllThingsOnePlace thank you :)
Have you ever tried comparing differenced between 2 power adapters of the same kind? Like buying from differen stores or countries so they whould be made in different batches and seeing consistency. If all of their products have same statistics or if there is some kind of variantion depending on the build.
Yes, several times. I compared dell 90w laptop adapters, apple 5w adapters, I compared several models and years of APD power adapters (those were not reliable and had variance, also significantly older). Even with the different models and years of adapters they mostly all do the same. Even two purchased at the same time, which I have done a couple times also, one of the Anker 3 series, same. The minix/invzi are clones, same results. All the 140W adapter clones, all got almost exactly the same results. So, in general, even across manufacturers these things tend to be very close. The uncertainty on the low end is higher in measurements as PF and THD contribute, these add variance to the more precisely measured parameters like amps and volts.
06:29 you said that the Anker 523 won't support 45 watts for Samsung, but the output did mention 15v - 3A.
Did I miss something you said? I really appreciate if you explain this
Samsung uses, PPS so 9V (variable voltage mode) and 5 Amps to achieve 45 watts. So, typically a device will need the 11V mode with 5 amps of current to be able to get to this power level. It may have a 45w mode but it isn't the one that they use or have historically use, it would be great if they expanded to more modes. I haven't looked into the latest devices so maybe they did.
Excellent, as always!
Thank you!
The Anker 313 45W adapter and it's smaller 25 cousin were designed solely for Super Fast Charging Samsung devices. That's why they exist
I wouldn't say solely, but yes, the support is improved over the nano ii series.
My 45w 313 won't hold the super fast charging and switches back to "fast charging" at 25w after a few seconds. Not sure why.
@@didamnesia3575maybe it gets too hot or your device only supports 25watts
@didamnesia3575 it's probably your cable for the cable that came with my s23 ultra was only a 3a cable which means it can't charge my phone at 45watt
@papasmurf6312 no, it wasn't. It was the charger. Wasn't using that cable. Also tried 3 different cables that show wattage IRT. Clearly could see power throttling. Switched the Samsung 45W charger and it charges at 43W, takes less than an hour to charge
The Anker 313 manual mentions 21V/2.25A but the charger itself doesn't mention it. Is there any reason for this?
Sometimes they don't put the PPS modes on the adapter itself. 21V is usually a PPS mode.
The anker 313 45w def does 21v/2.25A. I've been able to hit over 30w on my pixel 9 xl multiple times with the battery at about 42%. People are also posting 0-100% charging times on forums and youtube that are in line with the official adapter and samsung's 45w adapter.
Which charger do you carry?
As of now, the Anker Nano II 45W is in my camera bag, the Baseus 100W wall charger is my portable charger, and the 165W Satechi 4 port is my home base unit.
Hi mate! Your videos are great and informative! GJ! A question! What you suggest for nothing phone 2? Samsung 45W or anker 313? Quality wise mostly.
Hmm, I'd expect the Samsung to be a bit better quality wise and in terms of longevity, but it is a larger adapter. The 313 is much more space optimized but it's going to get hotter and probably have a shorter lifespan as a consequence of heat.
@@AllThingsOnePlace Samsung was already ordered few days ago :) Thanks for your answer! Appreciate. What about wireless charger? Should i look into Samsung?
hi sir, I just want to ask which of these two Anker products is better if I buy Anker 313 45w or Anker 713 Charger (Nano II 45W)?
The 313 is a little more capable on the USB side, so I'd go with that.
@@AllThingsOnePlace thank you
Do you recommend the official Samsung 45w charger or the anker 45w charger for charging s23 ultra? And why?
The Samsung official 45W charger is a good unit. It is a bit larger and I'd expect it to last a little longer because it doesn't get quite as hot as the Anker units. If size and weight is the primary concern then the Anker wins. For PPS mode charging both are good options though.
It would make an interesting video if you tested and analyzed a ton of dirt cheap chargers, even ones from Temu and stuff just to spread awareness about using certified chargers that are safe and work well.
I think I did that. In ua-cam.com/video/3Upj6zR_gyo/v-deo.html I also made a short on that more recently. It's like whack-a-mole though so there's always bad stuff out there.
@@AllThingsOnePlace ah, sweet
So the UGREEN does not support charging a laptop and a phone together? even at a slower rate? my phone tops out at 20W and I was planning on getting this for the rare occasion i might need to charge both together, but if that doesn't work might aswell just go for the single port anker
For the lower wattage chargers yes. Usually you have to step up to a 100W or 65W class device to charge a laptop and a phone together.
@@AllThingsOnePlace thanks i ended up getting a 65w for more practicality
Just a quick question about the Ugreen,
You said that there isn’t a safety listing for North America, I’m looking on tuv reinhands database and I’m able to find this model and the latest necked mini 30 watt on there. Is that not for the North American market? Just making sure
Yeah, they don’t have any us listings as far as I know. Some have Japanese listings and other listings I’ve found on the tuv website also. Some have no listings at all though.
@@AllThingsOnePlace so the ones like for example on tuv themselves when you search up Ugreen and they give the model. Those are for Japan specifically? Because again, they have listings there.
@@robnavarro9405 I haven't looked up every single one, but the ones I have seen have been TUV PSE for Japan. Which I also tore one down and the construction looked good inside. It doesn't mean that all of them are that for all time and with no exceptions. I've probably only been hands on with 10% of what UGREEN sells so could even be the minority.
@@AllThingsOnePlacegood to know, thanks for your reply. I love your content.
If I could ask, could you tear down the Nomadgoods GAN chargers? I understand if you can’t
Great video. I was wondering what would be an advantage of getting the Anker 523 compared to Anker 735 GanPrime (65w, 3 port) when it can go on sale for $40-45 (and cost can be similar between the two)? The latter can probably charge a greater range of laptops.
Yeah, excellent point. The 65w is slightly heavier and larger but splitting hairs. I guess the challenge is when the 523 is on sale but yeah the 65W gives you an extra port an a few extra modes with a QC USB A port.
Very nice videos. I had already bought ugreen nexode 65watt charger and quite satisfied with its performance. I am usinh it to charge my iphone 16pro max and ultra watch. Shall i be concerned about safety of it damaging my iphone? Shall i upgrade Anker Ganprime 67watt?
If it's working, I wouldn't change anything. I don't think it poses any safety risk to the phone itself or any additional damage risk over anything else... The phone/device generally decides how much power to consume not the charger so it won't force too many watts in. It might not be the best one but if it ain't broke don't fix it.
@ thank U. Bt if i have the option to go with anker ganPrime 67watt charger instead of Ugreen nexode 65watt, shall i go for it? I know u have reviewed that as well and its idle performance is not good, bt considering Anker is more responsible brand shall i go for Anker Ganprime 67watt?
Are there any examples of devices that use PPS? Samsung and Google Pixel's are the only two I know of that use it, but only up to 10V. Is there a downside to getting a charger than only does 11V or 16V max PPS?
Yeah, I've been on the lookout for devices that use the higher voltage PPS. I haven't found any. Samsung does go to 11V on some phones. The point of PPS is it is variable so if the mode is 16, but the device needs 10, it will get 10. The issue comes down to current with that voltage. What current can the power adapter deliver and is that being negotiated to and I think that leads to some issues with chargers. The 313 is made to better support that lower voltage PPS mode though.
Hello, is the anker 511 nano pro compatible with the original cable of the 15 pro max? Thank you so much ! Very good video :)
I hope so. They're both USB C. I don't see a reason why the iphone would need a 5A cable either.
ok thx :)@@AllThingsOnePlace
Can you make a video about charger cable length if it does matter ? Really love your channel. Thank you!

Thanks!
I am still wondering what the difference is between the Nano II and the 315 (both 65 watt). Does that 315 still uses GAN 2? There is no mention of it in the marketing anymore.
Yeah, not sure either.
@@AllThingsOnePlace I asked Anker, so i let you know when i got a response. In the comparison table they have they listed next 2 each other with no differences, except for the appearence and the 2 watts of course.
@@AllThingsOnePlace I got an answer from Anker: After thorough research, I can confirm that from a charging perspective, there is not a significant difference between these two adapters. Both of them are based on the GaN II technology, which is known for its efficiency and compactness.
The primary difference between the two lies in their power output. The 315 adapter offers a slightly higher power output of 67 watts, compared to the Nano II's 65 watts. This means that the 315 adapter can potentially charge your devices slightly faster. However, this 2-watt difference is quite minimal and may not significantly impact the charging speed in practical use.
@AllThingsOnePlace Will this charge Iphone 16 and Apple Watch 10 safely? Also is this charger better than Amazon 36 watt charger? Thanks
These will all work. The 523 or nexode will probably be a little faster for the phone.
@@AllThingsOnePlace Thanks for prompt response. Love your channel!
I'm confused on this product, there is no Nano 523 product on the Anker website???
It is also Model Number: A2039 or the nano 3 or the 523.
I have iPhone 15 pro max and i am wondering which charger is better Anker Nano 313 GaN or Anker 713 Nano GaN II?
The 7 series is almost always the better charger, but it really comes down to wattage. Also, there is a little bit of luck of a draw with the 15 pro max, it is incompatible with a random selection of chargers. But baring that issue, either charger is fine.
Can I use the Nano ii 45 watt for my MacBook air for constant charging at a desk station?
It should work for a smaller macbook air with m series chips. I think apple ships them with a 35 watt adapter. If you upgrade the components to max I think it bumps up to a 70W adapter though.
@@AllThingsOnePlace I was going to get the 70 watt but I 2 arguments saying it kills the battery due to excessive heating and that the constant quick charging also further kills the battery yet there's not a single video on UA-cam or evidence on Reddit about what the battery temps are or temperatures in a MacBook Air as there's no active cooling. my MacBook Air will be on a vesa monitor stand so lots of ventilation but all the comments have me kind of nervous to use the 70 watt as a regular day to charger so hence I was looking at a lower watt 45.
So the anker 523 only does fast charging at 25W and not at 45W when using just single port right?
Yeah, it didn't go above 3 amps during testing so it would be the lower category charging speed.
Is there any charger on the market that does not renegotiate at all whenever a new device is plugged in / unplugged?
It is part of the process of getting more voltage, so anything will higher voltage will do that. The difference is all the other ports renegotiate on a plug unplug of one port. The higher wattage devices have limited functionality in this regard. For the example the (well some of the) 200W chargers will keep two ports active at a time without any switching off and back on again. Obviously, anything single port is fine since there's only one device. On the lower wattages though, no, everything I have found resets on plug of second device.
Which adapter would you recommend for charging a s22 plus.. samsung 25 wats charger or anker 25 watts [power port 3] .. Both are at same price.. what would you recommend.
Hmm. I’m leaning towards go with the oem adapter.
I love your videos I have learned a lot these days, but so in terms of quality anker and ugreen are practically the same or which one do you prefer and why?, I plan to buy the 30w NEXODE but I had doubts, Sorry if my English is bad, greetings from R.D.
I think Anker is a little better on the quality side now, I know they've had issues before too, and still do sometimes. They are the established premium brand. UGREEN wants to be that and is trying but at least in the US market doesn't seem to want to get things safety listed which is why I shrug them off as second tier.
@@AllThingsOnePlace thank you very much for answering! Personally I would also like them to be registered in the US security list too, I agree with you, what happened to me is that I have recently purchased a new 20w anker nano pro which fails me, on some occasions it cuts the power and works again as if it were restarted and that worries me especially for my switch and s22, so I wanted to change it but that thorn stuck, I have an old no gan anker 20w charger which works without problems but I wanted to update it.
Do you recommend the Anker 313 or the Anker 713 for nothing phone 2a?
Very impressive information on the nothing phone webpage. They tell you exactly what it needs! 45W PPS (3.3~20V/2.25A) wired charging: full charge in 55 mins So simple, if the charger has one of those modes then you are good. Depending on the PPS voltage it looks like it will charge faster or slower. The 313 should top out for charging speed.
Could you llease review Ugreen Nexode RG 65W charger please and is it best to pair with Apple iphone 15 pro max.
I added it to the list. Is it best, not sure, have to test it to find out.
@@AllThingsOnePlaceif you could please test that, no need for a video. Your reply would be enough for me. I would really appreciate the help. 🙏
Hi, will power quality affecting battery health?
These are isolated things. Power Quality in reference to a power adapter is an Alternating Current or AC metric related to efficiency and other parameters.
@@AllThingsOnePlace so it is a matter of efficiency and will not damage the battery long-term speaking?
@@DivanFL Correct.
wich charger you would recommnded for iphone 15 pro? sometimes i would like to charger other phones/ diveces like cycling computers etc.
so not high wattege needed, but 2 ucb-c slots or usb-c and usb a would nice to have. The most i value is effeciency and durability.
reading comments about anker 523 heating up, it makes me wonder how much it is effecting durabilty 🤔
do you have experince combability aplle devices?
Thanks your vid. it is really cool to see someone putting this much effort finding out and testing stuff! keep going mate! 🤩🤩
Yeah, specifically, no recommendations for that one device. But just as a general use case for lots of lower powered devices, you may end up with something like the Baseus 100W GaN3 desktop, it has two USB A ports though so use those for the low powered devices, two C ports for phones. This is a bit over the power level needed, but generally can be had for a reasonable price and won't get too hot since you aren't taxing it to it's power limit. It is also very efficient.
Is it posable for you to at some point to review the toochi 4 port 100w charger if posable.
I tried searching for that and didn't find anything.
I know you made videos on Aohi products before, but I was wondering you can review their 120w desktop charger next? They recently released a 240w “modular” extension cable as well, but it’s a bit over the top for anyone since it’s $109+.
I didn't look at the 120W yet. Yeah, the 240w extender sounds like something I'd check out though. Thanks for the info!
Why is the Ace in the 3 series not the 7?
No idea.
My anker 313’s Model code is A2643. Your model code is A2677. And it looks way different than mine. What’s the difference between these two?
Hmm. Not sure. Sounds like I have more chargers to look at though.
The A2677 version is called Anker 313 Ace (released Jan 2023) and the A2643 one is called Anker 313 Ace 2 (released July 2023) with bigger size, perhaps for better heat dissipation. But I have no clue how the ACE 2 perform compare to the ACE 1 in this review, is it better or is it worse?
Anker 313 45W or UGREEN Nexode 45W, which one should I get for Nothing Phone (2a)? Thank you.
I would go with the Anker.
Great video. These aren't bad.
Thanks, yeah, upper average, no surprises.
Is it harmful to rechargeable devices when there is no PFC in charger? What does it have a bad effect on?
It costs more and uses more energy in the case of these small chargers the difference is also small so just mentioned for completeness.
did you ever make a vid about efficiency of MagSafe chargers ? i assume they behave the same as Qi chargers ??? i tried to google the efficiency and was shocked to read it's 70% i don't know how accurate that is and that was for wireless charging so no differentiation with Qi 2 and the new magsafe.. After yesterday's apple event the 25w magsafe charger sounds good at night it does require a 30w usb-c charger so i was looking at 30W chargers looks like Anker is still the best for less waist still during the night a 15w Qi2 would be enough. Something like the "UGREEN Foldable 2 in 1 iPhone Charging Dock " looks good as a night stand dock.
Thanks for al the awesome work you do.
Yeah, 70% not including the wall charger, mostly any testing I've seen on it is done DC to DC, haha. There's also a ton of variance sample to sample and the whole idle power issue, which they very carefully never mention anywhere. Wireless charging is getting better though. Eventually I will make a video about it, but iFixit's short video on it is pretty good. Basically, it's a lot worse than using a cable.
@@AllThingsOnePlace haha wat a good point the wall charger forgot all about it! That’s the difference between a pro like your self and me haha 😂 I use magnetic adapters those you can buy on aliexpress work with pins the remind me of pogo pins it’s a physical connection there’s a magnetic piece you connect on the device and a piece you connect on the cable transforming it to a MagSafe connection like find on MacBooks I have bought several brands use them for everything like connecting mechanical keyboards and charging my iPad that’s on usb-c. Do you know the adapters I’m talking about?
As an owner of the 45W Nexode charger, I can confirm it does not support 45W Super Fast Charging 2.0 for Samsung device. Despite being PPS capable, it only maxes out at 25W..so Super Fast Charging 1.0.

I don't know. This is the wait until everyone else gets all the viral videos out channel, then like 3 months later I put out a video about it, haha. I had a look around Samsung's webpage and as usual, nothing at all, even in the 173 page user manual, not one mention of how to charge it! Even apple has a dedicated page like, it works like this...

The 45w Samsung charger isn’t bad. These usually come with a 100w capable 5a cable too. The main question is if your laptop will operate within the 45 watt power available from the Samsung power adapter. Many will but you’ll have to check the specifications for your machine.

Great video, as always!! The Anker 313 has great efficiency in the low-power zone (5-20 W). For charging smartphones it looks like an excellent choice. Do you think it would qualify as one of the best (if not the best) product in the 45 W class?
I agree, that for charging a phone in that lower wattage range it is a good choice.
@@AllThingsOnePlaceis there a better choice than anker 313 at that low wattage range? (5-20w) particularly thinking about battery long life, it's fine if it takes some time to charge...
what will happen if you charge your samsung S23 ultra with samsung 25W charger which is not that great amongst chargers (compared to some of the better ones)? will it cause faster degradation of the battery? thank you.
The degradation of the battery won't be affected by charger statistics. Only reason I can think of it affecting it is if more heat is produced due to higher current draw from the battery (which requires a negotiation between the phone's charging IC as well as the SRC's controller)
@@eugene4350 so there's no difference if you charge with a good or a gas station charger?!
@@Robbyjonesy A good charger will be more reliable in the long run in terms of thermals and build quality, but between different models of good chargers it will mostly be the same with small differences scattered throughout
Yeah, temperature probably plays a bigger role than anything. A larger charger will get warmer, so if the phone is getting hotter during charging that may accelerate degradation of cells but the difference with modern charge controllers is probably negligible. They'll slow down the charge speed as soon as things get too warm. A cheap charger probably will charge slower, although the charger may not be safe or may get hotter because itself is inefficient, the phone probably doesn't care.

Wow, that is some crazy expensive USB cable. So, it's an extension cord and a couple short cables? Each connector adds more resistance and USB C is not a great connector for that so that probably will do quite poorly by unit length in terms of charging efficiency and resistance.

My anker 313 doesnt hold to super fast charging. Its about 15% slower than the 45w Ugreen and the 65w teknet
That is weird. They basically made this adapter for that. It does depend on charge state of the device but yeah anything lower than 50% should hold that status. Thanks for sharing.
@AllThingsOnePlace I'll do more tests and I'll order a different cable that gives Wattage, i have one but just to be sure. I have a proper voltmeter but I'm not actually adept at using it for more than basic home repair. In any case, I have a few different chargers here and 2 s23 ultras, haven't yet seen anything above 35W. The anker 313, ugreen 45w dual port, tecknet 65w, a few 25W Samsung chargers are the ones I currently have. When charging in the 30% range Samsung and 313 hold steady at 25W under fast charging, Tecknet holds at 30W, Ugreen does the fluctuations and appears to turn off but it cycles from 0-35 Watts over 10s and keeps that cycle up. It charges the fastest and coolest but without a printout of wattage over time I'm not specifically sure what is happening. For right now a few more days of tests to be sure and from a less than 10%. I also purchased the Samsung branded wireless chargers and those seem fine.
@@AllThingsOnePlace maybe I should mention I have these plugged into the back of a 1500W APC backup
@@didamnesia3575 hmm, I don't think that would matter. An online UPS recreates a sinewave so would be changing the output versus what is supplied by the mains, a switching UPS, is just directly connected to the mains with a relay so that would no different. Keep me posted on your results though.
How could Anker 313 be capable of doing super fast charging for S22 23 Ultra, whilst it can only prove 9v at 3 amp??
In the PPS, which Samsung uses, it goes up to 11V and 4 amps.
(Brazil) Hi, which one do you recommend for the Samsung Tab s9? Anker , Ugreen or Baseus ? Thanks in advance.
For lower wattage charging anker, ugreen, Samsung ones all seem pretty good. For higher wattages, anker prime adapters mostly seem pretty good, baseus 100w adapters seem good in general.
Do you recommend Ugreen 30w? (Compared to Baseus) Thank you, sorry for the English translator!
👍👍👍
I'm all thumbs.

🤣
Finally
ha.
Anker chargers are shits now a days. They don't last.
none of them last.
@@AllThingsOnePlace probably they're from the same manufacturer.
Funny enough both are made by the same manufacturer
Yeah, there seems to be a few big players making a lot of these.
The decreasing price of the 45W class chargers was one of the big points of this video. Even the Anker devices have dropped in price recently.
I just ordered the ugreen 45W for $16 today. I didn't know it only supported lower voltages when both ports were in use. A little disappointing but not enough to return it.
I think if I wanted more power than 45W I'd go for >100W with PFC and PD 3.1.
Thanks for sharing! Yeah, that price point makes it much more compelling.
