I’ve been using this 65W GaN charger for a few weeks now and it’s really handy when I work outside of home or office.
At home and at the office, my mainstay charger is the Belkin BoostCharge Pro 4-Port 108W GaN Charger.
Once I hit the road, my charger of choice is the Belkin BoostCharge Pro 65W Dual USB-C GaN Wall Charger with PPS.
The charger comes with a 2m power cable in the box.
This is because of how compact and lightweight it is.
I normally just leave it in the bag and reach for it when I settle down in a cafe or at a meeting room.
The powerful 65W wall charger comes with two USB-C ports for charging two devices simultaneously.
The top port is able to charge a MacBook Pro at 65W when used alone.
When both ports are in use, the top port pumps out 45W while the bottom outputs a maximum of 20W.
