Best 100W USB-C chargers 2022
The fastest chargers for all your compatible electronic devices.
Once upon a time, getting one of the best 100W USB-C chargers meant it would be bulky, expensive, and proprietary. Now with Power Delivery, you can now find 100W chargers, with 160W charging on the way, that will charge even the most powerful laptops quickly and will charge even lower-powered devices like Chromebooks and phones alongside your laptop with ease. The scene is shifting on 100W chargers pretty quickly these days as gallium nitride (GaN) starts making its way into this class of charger.

Smart power
This desk-friendly charging station can charge at up to 100W speeds for a single device, or it can intelligently break it up to charge 2-4 devices at once. Not only do you get 4 USB ports, but you also get two AC outlets and a wireless charging pad — everything you need, including laptops or phones, with ease.
Extra USB-As
This charger has two 100W PD USB-C ports, a 22.5 PD USB-C port, and an 18W QuickCharge USB-A port. When using both 100W USB-C ports, one will provide 65W and the other 30W. This isn't the smallest charger on the list, but it provides a good number of high-output ports and is still smaller than you might expect.
Big power, small package
This power adapter may look small, but it has a lot of power due to the addition of GaN tech. This helps it pump out up to 100W of PD 3.0 juice to power up all of your devices in no time. When using both USB-C ports simultaneously, it can kick out 65W from one and 30W from the other.
Sleek style
Satechi breaks up its ports' power in a straighforward way. Two ports offer 100W speeds, and the tertiary USB-A port reaches speeds of up to 12W for your smaller accessories. And if you are charging multiple devices at once, Satechi's charger will intelligently adjust the output based on what ports are being used.
Small, but mighty
This slim charger is part of the new GaNPrime lineup from Anker and has an impressive 120W output. It comes in black and white with a classy champagne option also. There are two 120W USB-C ports t,hat when using both at the same time, the power is split between the two ports. You also get a 22.5W USB-A port.
QuickCharge compatible
This charger has two 100W USB-C port and two standard USB-A ports, with all four ports offering either Power Delivery or Qualcomm QuickCharge 3.0, which is great for charging older phones that don't support Power Delivery charging. If you've got an older phone that doesn't support PD, QC 3.0 is what you'll want.
For gamers, by gamers
Razer is slowly continuing to move into the accessory space, as evidenced by this new USB-C GaN charger. The charger provides up to 130W of power spread across two USB-C ports and two USB-A ports. In the box, Razer also includes a series of global power adapters so that you can be ready, regardless of what country you are heading to.
Apple's own
Apple's charger brick might get pretty warm at times, but sometimes the official chargers are the easiest to trust. This is also one of the few 140W chargers that's an actual wall plug instead of having a figure-eight cord from the brick to the wall.
Going BIG and small
Anker's latest GaNPrime lineup brings intelligent charging with serious power output into small packages. The 747 GaNPrim charger brings 150W of total combined power potential from the three USB-C ports capable of 100WPD and the single 22.5W USB-A port. The 150W gives plenty of headroom to handle the big power needs of multiple devices to get your stuff charged up quickly.
What to look for in a 100W Charger: Power Delivery
There are many 100W multi-port chargers out there, but if it doesn't have Power Delivery, just turn around and walk away. Just walk away! Without a Power Delivery USB-C port that can offer 87W or more — preferably 20V/5A 100W charging if your devices support it — then it's only useful for charging a bunch of smaller devices, not for charging a laptop while you're editing or gaming.
Now that so many devices like laptops, Chromebooks, phones, and more are using UBC-C for power, it makes sense to find a charger that can properly juice them up and even let you take it on the go using some of the best portable chargers and power banks. This is why the Anker 727 Charging Station gets the win on this list due to its substantial 100W Power Delivery, variety of ports, and charging options.
Most 100W PD chargers either only have one USB-C port, or if they have two, the first port is 87W-100W, and the second port is capped at 18W. This configuration is great if you're always charging a phone and a laptop. Still, if you're in a family that might need to charge two Chromebooks, multiple Android phones, or a laptop the night before your family vacation, you need something more. Anker can intelligently distribute power based on what's plugged in, but more importantly, you can plug in two laptops and get up to 50W of power to each of them.
50W is over top speed on every Chromebook available at the moment, and it's enough that it should charge up most Windows and Mac laptops when you're not burning through battery with hardcore gaming or video rendering. If you're looking for a 100W charger that you can use for yourself, your partner, or for the whole family to use in the living room, that makes the Anker or UGREEN the only real choice for charging your power-hungry devices or recharging an excellent high-capacity power bank.
