Ugreen’s Nexode Pro 160W GaN charger aims to consolidate device charging for travellers

Ugreen’s Nexode Pro 160W GaN charger, priced at $59.99, offers a compact, multi-port solution for travellers seeking to power multiple devices simultaneously, replacing bulky laptop bricks and phone adapters.

UGREEN’s Nexode Pro 160W GaN charger is pitched as a way to replace the usual tangle of laptop bricks, phone adapters and spare cables with one compact unit. At $59.99, down from $90, it is designed for travellers and desk users who want a single charger that can handle several devices at once without dominating a bag or power strip.

The hardware is built around four USB-C ports and one USB-A port, giving it the flexibility to cover newer laptops, phones, tablets and older accessories. UGREEN says the charger can deliver up to 160W in total, with individual ports capable of reaching 140W under the right conditions. The foldable plug and compact body are central to the design, and the company says the GaN, or gallium nitride, power stage helps keep the unit smaller than a conventional charger while maintaining high output.

Reviewers have generally focused on the same strengths: portability, build quality and the ability to charge several devices simultaneously. Notebookcheck described the charger as a capable option for powering a laptop while also topping up smaller devices, though it noted that the smart display’s readings were not always perfectly accurate. Macworld made a similar point about the charger’s compact size and useful multi-device performance, saying its premium pricing was easier to justify because of its output and travel-friendly form factor.

That combination makes the Nexode Pro 160W most relevant for people carrying multiple USB-C devices and trying to reduce clutter. It is less about novelty than consolidation: one charger for a laptop, phone and accessories, with enough overhead to remain practical on the road. For frequent travellers, that can matter more than headline wattage alone.
