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 safely support up to 100W of charging. Using a standard 3A cable, on the other hand, only supports charging up to 60W.
Chargers with lower wattage outputs may still be used with devices that need more power, though the charging speed will be reduced.
USB C chargers have emerged as the norm for today’s electronic devices, offering a versatile, high-performance, and user-friendly solution for power and data transfer. With a compact, reversible design, USB-C eliminates the hassle of figuring out plug orientation and supports faster charging and higher data speeds compared to earlier USB types. Its widespread implementation across mobile devices, tablets, laptops, and accessories cuts down on the number of multiple chargers, making it more convenient for users to use and recharge various devices with a single cable. This growing standardization also aids sustainability efforts by reducing electronic waste and making device interoperability easier.
