UGREEN Nexode Pro 65W 3-Port GaN Fast Charger

SKU: 17663

The Ugreen Nexode Pro family of chargers certainly all carry the same DNA, they’re a wonderful matching set. Like the larger 160w option I’ve also recently had my hands on, the Nexode Pro 65W is wrapped in a simple gunmetal grey outfit that does a good job of looking suitably premium. The matte finish of the plastic body almost mimics a metal shell and holding it for the first time I briefly second guessed whether Ugreen had splashed out on a higher end material. They hadn’t of course, it’s all plastic, but it’s a high quality plastic that feels far from cheap.
Annoyingly though the Nexode Pro 65w charger also retains the same fixed power socket prongs which jut aggressively out from the end. Not only do they add nearly 50% to the total length of the charger but they feel rather exposed and vulnerable. I’m less confident about chucking the Nexode Pro 65W straight into a backpack or my pocket than I would be with charger offering folding or retractable pins. Yes, there’s likely no room to incorporate the pins into the charger body itself at this size; but I’d welcome a slightly larger total size with flat edges all round over a thinner body with exposed arms.

There’s three ports on offer here, down from four on the 160w Nexode Pro but still an excellent offering for a charger of this size. The two USB-C and single USB-A port are reasonably tightly spaced but not so cramped that it’ll ever cause you real problems. Trying to remove the middle USB-C cable without first removing a cable above or below it was a little fiddly, but I’m splitting hairs here.
Overall in testing I was impressed by what the Ugreen Nexode Pro 65w offered. This is a no fuss option that packs plenty of punch across its three ports and I was happy with the speed everything I tried charged at. It’s worth a reminder that while the two USB-C ports are capable of delivering the full 65W to a single device, the charger as a whole maxes out at 65W which will be shared between ports if multiple devices are connected.
