UGREEN USB-C charger 160W

How to use it

Three USB-C ports and one USB-A port give the UGREEN Nexode Pro a practical advantage: it can charge a mix of devices from one wall charger instead of taking up space with separate adapters. Its total output is up to 160W, while USB-C1 can deliver up to 140W when used on its own, making it the port to use for a compatible high-powered laptop.

For example, you could plug in a laptop at your desk and keep a phone and another device charging from the same block. But will every connected device get its fastest possible charge? Not necessarily: the charger distributes power across its ports, and charging speed also depends on the device’s supported protocol and the cable.

This is aimed at people who regularly charge several USB-C devices, with a USB-A connection available for an older accessory. It’s a more consolidated approach than carrying separate chargers, though a single-device charger may be simpler if you rarely need multiple ports. The listing names MacBook Pro, Pixelbook, XPS, iPad, iPhone, Galaxy and Pixel devices, actual charging performance still varies by model and cable.

Pros

• Four ports—three USB-C and one USB-A—let you connect several devices at once.
• USB-C1 provides up to 140W when used alone, with PD 3.1 support.
• The stated maximum total output is 160W, shared through an intelligent power-distribution system.
• GaN technology is presented as a way to deliver power in a compact, lightweight design with less heat generation.
• Built-in protection covers short circuit, over-voltage, over-temperature and over-current conditions.

The main trade-off is shared output: plugging in additional devices changes how much power is available to each one. The 140W figure applies to USB-C1 when used alone, not to every port at once. For the advertised fast charging, the connected device and cable must support the relevant power and protocol. The product description also says USB-C1 and USB-C2 support 60W fast charging for Galaxy S26 Ultra, that claim depends on the phone and cable meeting the required conditions.

What I’d decide

It makes sense if you want one charger for a laptop and several smaller devices, and you’re willing to choose ports with shared power in mind. In a travel bag or beside a desk, having USB-C and USB-A together can reduce the need to pack multiple charging blocks. By design, though, this is not a promise that four connected devices will all charge at their maximum speed.

Better avoid it if you need a guaranteed charging rate for every device at the same time, or if your laptop requires more than the output available from a shared setup. A dedicated charger can be the more straightforward choice when one device is the priority, the Nexode Pro is more compelling when several compatible devices need charging from a single block.
