With the popularity of laptops, mobile phones, and tablets, people are using more and more electronic devices every day. There are also a dazzling array of multi-port chargers on the market, and many consumers are confused when purchasing. How to choose a multi-port charger?
1. Select power
The core value of multi-port chargers that differs from single-port chargers is that they can charge multiple devices at the same time. Since different devices have different charging powers, special attention needs to be paid to power matching.
In order to ensure fast and efficient single-port charging, the power of the multi-port charger should not be lower than the standard charging power of the maximum power device. In addition, it is necessary to combine personal usage habits and take into account the reasonable distribution and efficient use of multiple charging ports.
2. Select the interface
The choice of interface is a point that many people struggle with. First of all, in terms of quantity, it is best to reserve one more to meet your daily needs so that you can share it with others. In fact, for ordinary consumers, three or four ports can basically meet the needs of daily use or travel. Too many ports and low utilization will increase the volume of the product.
Secondly, you should consider whether the type of interface matches your device.
Most of the current mainstream digital products use Type-C interface, followed by some USB-A interfaces. Therefore, when choosing a multi-port charger, it is recommended to choose a product with a Type-C port as the main port and a USB-A port at the same time.
3. Protocol adaptation
Any fast charging charger needs to consider the compatibility of the charging protocol and the device.
With the maturity of fast charging technology, the application scenarios of multi-port chargers are becoming more and more extensive. When purchasing, try to choose products with wider agreement coverage, so as to achieve efficient and safe charging and truly give full play to "one head for multiple purposes" Effect.
Let’s assume a scenario. When your 16-inch MacBook Pro and your colleague’s Huawei Mate40Pro run out of power at the same time, you need a multi-port charger with a C port that supports both PD3.0 and SCP protocols.
4. Portability
The reason why multi-port chargers are favored by many business people is that they can "one charge many" and are more convenient to carry when traveling.
