"The charger also supports a whole range of fast charging protocols -- PD, PPS, QC, FCP, and SCP -- so you're guaranteed to get the fastest charge possible. But there's more to this charger than being small and powerful, it also runs really cool. This is a result of using GaN transistors which are a lot more efficient than older silicon semiconductors, alongside intelligent design that helps to dissipate the heat generated."
"At the core it's a 140W unit measuring 3.11 x 2.56 x 1.26 inches and weighing 11.8 oz, similar to the charger that Apple ships with its but 20% smaller. This charger is far more flexible thanks to being kitted out with not one port -- but four. There are three UBS-C ports, two capable of 140W max when powering one device, and the other that's good up to 33W max when used on its own. There's also a USB-A port that's good for 18W max when used alone. When used in various combinations, the power output drops, but even with all four ports in use, the unit can still deliver 65W from a single USB-C port, which is enough to keep even a beefy laptop running."
GaN enables a 140W charger in a compact 3.11 x 2.56 x 1.26-inch, 11.8 oz package that is about 20% smaller than comparable units. The unit provides four ports: three USB-C ports (two capable of 140W when powering one device, the third up to 33W) and one USB-A port rated 18W. Combined port use reduces individual outputs but still allows up to 65W from a single USB-C port with all four active. The charger supports PD, PPS, QC, FCP, and SCP fast-charging protocols. GaN transistors and intelligent design reduce heat. Foldable prongs and a tactile finish improve travelability.
