I own most models of chargers that Ugreen offers and love them so bought this 160w and the new 100w as soon as they were released. These are incredibly high quality charger and what I love about this company is they鈥檙e constantly innovating and updating their product offering.
This newest line of Pro chargers has increased total Watt output and I was surprised to see they also reduced the size. The 160w charger is now about the same size as their older 100w charger, slightly smaller than the similar 140w with 1 additional USB c port(3 C and 1 A).
Tested with 16鈥 m2 MacBook Pro, MacBook Air and iPhone 15pro Max. iPad Pro, Samsung S23, Pixel 8 Pro and some older androids. Works with all devices flawlessly providing highest charge rates the devices allow. Just also ensure you are using cables that support the wattage that needs to be outputted. A 60w cable is not going to give you 140w that the MacBook can support. Most mobile devices will be charging well under 60w anyway. Also keep in mind that 160w is the total output. The more devices you plug in the less power each port gets. Ugreen has excellent images of how the power is distributed for each port and the number of devices connected. Check out their site or the product description.
One more thing to note with these types of multi chargers is that every time you plug something new in or add a device to charge on something already plugged in the charger has to renegotiate the power output for each port. This results in all devices reconnecting. This is normal and how the technology works however you need to account for this in every day usage depending of what you鈥檙e powering. For example if you have a HomePod plugged into the device and also an iPhone charger, when you start charging the iPhone the HomePod may cut out or restart due to the temporary power loss. If this is a concern it鈥檚 probably best to use a dedicated charger for devices that can鈥檛 have power interruption.
Overall great chargers. I鈥檝e been using them for years. None have failed on me and all have performed as expected. Appreciate the constant size reduction and looking forward to the new flat 65w they have 鈥渃oming soon鈥. The one con is this is quite expensive however Ugreen has their chargers on sale quite often so if you need a really good charger that will last but don鈥檛 want to pay full price just have patience and keep watching it for a sale.
Another great quality Ugreen charger. Awesome for travel with high powered devices.
