Let’s face it, most Americans have had to forego traveling for the past year, but that could all change in the second half of 2021. I’m always scrambling for a USB charger when I travel. That’s why I love the compact Omnia Mix4 100W 4-Port Charger from AUKEY. It’s tiny, yet powerful, designed to work with most popular USB-powered devices including USB-C laptops, tablets, iPhones, Android phones, wireless speakers and headphones, wearables, and photography gear.
AUKEY’s Omnia GaN (gallium nitride) power chip, developed in partnership with Navitas Semiconductor, operates up to 100x faster than old, slow silicon semiconductors, delivering 3x faster charging in half the size. Higher efficiency means less heat.
And with the 100w output and 4-Port versatility, you can simultaneously charge two laptops, one phone, and one pair of earbuds … while automatically optimizing the power supply of the connected devices. Augmented with AUKEY’s Dynamic Detect technology, each USB-C port can output the full power of the charger with 100W of power delivery when used on its own, or 45W power delivery for each USB-C ports and 12W split between USB-A ports when four ports are used together.
With the AUKEY 4-port charger, you can fully charge a MacBook Pro 16” in just 1.8 hours; and it’s actually 20% smaller than the 16” MacBook Pro charger. It also features a foldable plug design for maximum portability, making it handy for home, office, and travel use.
This UL-certified charger features built-in safeguards that protect your devices against excessive current, overheating, and overcharging.
And given the price, the AUKEY Omnia Mix4 100W 4-Port Charger earns our Editor’s Choice of the Week.
