Sharge's new Retractable 65W GaN charger, now available globally, features an integrated retractable USB-C cable and is priced at $39.90. It can provide 65W of power for charging larger devices like laptops, with the option to charge two devices at once via an additional USB-C port. While the charger comes with US-style folding prongs, EU and UK adapters can be ordered separately. Concerns about the durability of its retractable mechanism are addressed, with claims of surviving over 10,000 stretch cycles, leading to inquiries about warranty coverage for potential failures.
First revealed last December through a Chinese retailer, Sharge's new 65W GaN charger is now available globally. The charger features an integrated retractable USB-C cable.
The Retractable 65 can deliver up to a maximum of 65W of power with a single device connected, making it suitable for charging larger devices like laptops.
The big question with this trend is how durable are the internal mechanisms used to retract integrated cables? Will it survive someone mindlessly yanking out the cable?
On its website Sharge claims the mechanism can survive "10,000+ stretch cycles" without breaking, but we are seeking further clarification on durability.
