Understanding USB-C Wattage
Wall Charger Power Ratings for USB-CDevices
18–27W Mobile phones, action cameras, and small drones
27–45W Medium-sized tablets and ultrabooks
45–100W Full-sized laptops and large screens
For high-powered devices like large laptops and external displays, the wall charger needs to be paired with a 5A cable to enable charging at 100 watts. A regular 3-amp cable, by comparison, limits charging to 60 watts.
Lower-wattage USB-C chargers are often compatible with more power-hungry devices, although it will take longer to fully charge the device.
Type C USB chargers have established themselves as the go-to choice for contemporary electronic devices, offering a one-size-fits-all, streamlined, and convenient solution for energy delivery and connectivity. With a slim, dual-sided design, Type C USB solves the issue of one-way connectors and provides rapid charging and enhanced data performance compared to earlier USB types. Its widespread implementation across phones, tablets, laptops, and accessories minimizes dependence on multiple chargers, making it simpler for users to charge and sync various devices with a single cable. This growing standardization also aids sustainability efforts by reducing electronic waste and making device interoperability easier.
