How to choose a USB-C charger

Make sense of power ratings, ports and compatibility.

Editorial note: This is a research-based shopping checklist, not a hands-on product test. Some eBay shopping links below may earn us a commission if you make a qualifying purchase.

Match your device

Check your device manufacturer’s recommended charging wattage and supported charging standard before buying.

Read total output

A charger advertised at 100W may divide power across ports when several devices are connected. Review the per-port output table.

Check cable capability

The cable must support the needed power and data features. Higher-power charging may require a suitably rated USB-C cable.

Prioritize safety

Look for reputable sellers, appropriate electrical safety certifications, a clear warranty and documented device compatibility.

Bottom line

For most buyers, a charger that reliably powers their actual devices is more useful than the largest advertised wattage.

Before purchasing, verify current specifications, return policies and pricing with the retailer or manufacturer.
