Power the universe thanks to UGREEN with this insanely powerful charger
buy from amazonI am the type of person who can’t function if my desk is full of clutter.

User Experience
The charger came in a UGREEN-branded box with an image of the unit on the front. There were some details included on the back, but the information wasn’t extensive. UGREEN does a great job of detailing the product on their website.
One of the things I like a lot about this charging station is its size and simplicity of design. It’s rectangular and designed to stand up vertically. There is a single power cable (no power brick) that plugs directly into a power source that all USB ports feed off of. The charging station is small enough to fit practically anywhere, but it has enough weight that it isn’t sliding around the desk when I try to plug something in. If I had one suggestion for the design it would be to include a place (a pocket or strap) to store a USB-C cable so users can keep one with the charger at all times. I happen to have a pegboard in my office so locating a cable isn’t usually an issue, but I could see that being valuable to some types of users.
I’ve used the Nexode 500W charger to power several devices in the past couple of weeks. As we were preparing to leave for an extended weekend trip, I charged my M4 iPad Pro, my 16-inch M4 Max MacBook Pro, and my Vision Pro before we left. The charger had no trouble getting them charged up. Each of those devices was compatible with the charger and because there are plenty of USB-C ports, cable compatibility wasn’t an issue either.
In terms of real-world usage, I did a timed test with an iPhone 16 Pro to see how efficiently the Nexode charger would fare against previous timed tests we’ve completed. I used a 240W USB-C charging cable from StarTech.com and plugged the phone into the first port (240W output). The first 20 minutes the phone was charging it gained 24% battery power with a charging rate of 1.2% per minute. The second 20 minutes, the phone only gained 13% battery power with a charging rate of 0.65% per minute. I believe that the last half of the test slowed down due to trickle charging.
The test results do align with the specs for the UGREEN charger, but it’s important to note that iPhones support up to 27W of power delivery through USB-C. So, by using the 240W port and a cable capable of delivering that level of power, I did ensure that the phone would receive the highest PD possible. The 1.2% per minute is a strong result and the iPhone was likely pulling close to its max supported wattage.
Conclusion
The UGREEN Nexode 500W Desktop Charger is a powerhouse solution for users who need to charge multiple high-powered devices efficiently and safely. With a total output of 500W and support for the latest USB-C PD 3.1 standard, it’s more than capable of handling modern laptops, tablets, phones, and wearables. The compact vertical design is a smart fit for any workspace, especially with its sturdy build and simple setup. Real-world testing confirms that it performs as expected, even when pushing high-demand devices. Whether you’re outfitting a home office or prepping for travel, this charger delivers reliable, flexible power with premium build quality.
