UGREEN Nexode 500W Charger Review


Listen Later

UGREEN has broken their own record for releasing the world's first 300W charger and pushed the envelope even further by launching the world's first 500W Nexode Charger.
The UGREEN Nexode 500W Charger is a behemoth when it comes to capabilities and specs. The single unit can replace multiple chargers in your home or office and recharge up to 6 devices simultaneously at max speed.
We have been using the 300W Nexode Chargers in our office since 2023 and they have proven both reliable and super convenient for their ability to recharge multiple devices and as they are compatible with just about every charging standard and speed, we could remove many of the different chargers we had sitting around and replaced them with one device.
We have been putting the UGREEN Nexode 500W Charger to the test in the office over the past few weeks to see if it is a worthy successor to the 300W charger we reviewed previously.

The UGREEN Nexode 500W Charger can intelligently split the 500 watts available across its 6 ports depending on how many are being used. The highest output available from one single USB-C port is a colossal 240 watts. The remaining four USB-C ports each top out at 100 watts, with the USB-A port being capable of 22.5 watts.

UGREEN Nexode 500W Charger - How does it perform?
We have a collection of power banks here that are used every day. They are large capacity and with the wrong charger, they can take a lifetime to charge. With the UGREEN Nexode 500W Charger, you can plug multiple power banks into charge, along with a MacBook and iPhone, and in short order, you are ready to hit the road.
The power banks are essential for journalists as you can charge everything else from them when you are on the go, and being able to charge them quickly is essential. As devices get more powerful and power hungry at home too, the Nexode 500W charger can charge multiple tablets, phones and laptops, all at the same time. It also makes it very straightforward for everyone in the home to use, as you no longer need a specific charger for specific devices. Just find a spare port on the Nexode, and you are all set.

Conclusion
UGREEN continue to make nicely designed and reliable products that solve problems in your home or office. The Nexode 500W Charger makes it simple to charge any device you may have with its wealth of compatible charging standards and power on offer. It is the first 500W charger available and may be the only one you will need to buy to power all of your devices.
The Nexode 500W Charger is available to purchase from Amazon and directly from the UGREEN website now.
