The everyday size
65 watts is the power many everyday laptops are sold with. Its label usually reads 20 volts at 3.25 amps, which multiply to 65 watts. A 65W USB-C charger gives a laptop like that its full charging speed, and gives a smaller laptop or a tablet more than it needs, which is safe: a USB-C laptop only takes the power it asks for. That makes it a sensible single charger for a household with a laptop, a tablet and a phone. Every charger here has a UK three-pin plug.
What you will find here
- Small GaN chargers with two or three sockets, USB-C and USB-A, for a laptop and a phone from one wall socket.
- Chargers with a built-in retractable USB-C cable, which pulls out to reach the laptop and winds back in, plus extra sockets for a phone.
- A charger with one hybrid socket that takes either a USB-C or a USB-A cable.
- A travel charger with swappable plugs, including the UK one.
- A round-plug charger, 19 volts at 3.42 amps with a 5.5 x 2.5mm plug, for laptops that charge that way rather than through USB-C. Check its voltage, plug size and part numbers against your own charger's label.
How to choose a 65W charger
Start with the label on your laptop's original charger. A USB-C laptop whose charger says 65W or less is fully served by any of the USB-C chargers here. If yours says more, a 65W charger will still charge it, but slowly, and for a laptop that needs 90W or more the 100W chargers are the better fit.
On a charger with several sockets, the 65W is usually the total. The descriptions list what each socket gives alone and together, and the laptop's socket may give much less once a phone is plugged in too. If the laptop must charge at full speed, plug it in alone, or use a bigger charger.
The cable matters at this power. Certified USB-C cables are rated 60W or 240W, and 65W is just over the lower figure, so use a cable rated 100W or 240W from USB-C to USB-C laptop cables.
Questions people ask about 65W chargers
Is a GaN charger safe?
GaN is the material inside that switches the power, and it lets a charger be smaller. Check any charger for a fixed UK plug, the UKCA or CE mark and printed ratings.
Can I charge a phone from it at the same time?
Yes, from a second socket, with the total shared between them.
