**High-Efficiency GaN Charger with Stable PD Output — Excellent for High-Draw Devices**
The **Anker PowerPort PD 60W GaN Fast Charger** is a highly capable and well-engineered power delivery solution, particularly well-suited for modern laptops, tablets, and mobile devices that rely on **USB-C Power Delivery (PD)**.
### Build and Technology
This charger leverages **Gallium Nitride (GaN)** technology, enabling a significantly more compact design compared to traditional silicon-based chargers. Despite its reduced footprint, the charger reliably delivers **up to 60W** of stable power output, sufficient for charging high-power devices such as the **MacBook Pro 13/14-inch** and **iPad Pro**, while maintaining compatibility with lower-power devices via smart power negotiation.
### Charging Performance
When tested with a **USB-C PD-enabled power meter**, the charger consistently delivers advertised voltages (5V, 9V, 15V, and 20V) with excellent voltage stability and minimal thermal drift. During continuous charging of a **MacBook Pro 13" (2019)**, the charger maintained around **58-60W sustained output**, with no significant thermal throttling even under high load.
### Thermal Management
Thanks to GaN's superior efficiency, the charger generates **less heat** than comparable silicon-based chargers of the same wattage. Even during extended charging sessions, surface temperatures remained within safe ranges, typically peaking around **50°C** under full 60W load.
### Cable Quality
The included **6ft USB-C to C cable** is **USB 2.0 data rated** (480Mbps) but fully supports **PD 3.0 charging**. It features solid connectors, robust strain relief, and quality shielding to minimize resistance and EMI. Voltage drop over the full length was negligible during my tests, confirming the cable is optimized for high-current charging.
### Compatibility and Use Cases
I tested the charger with a variety of devices, including:
- **MacBook Pro 13" (2019)** — full-speed charging (approx. 2 hours from 10% to 100%)
- **iPad Pro 12.9" (2022)** — rapid charging with sustained 30W input
- **Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra** — fast charging (super-fast charging limited by Samsung’s proprietary PPS implementation)
- **Nintendo Switch** — PD profile correctly negotiated (15V @ 2.6A)
### Conclusion
The **Anker PowerPort PD 60W GaN Charger** offers an **excellent balance of size, thermal performance, and power delivery stability**. It is particularly valuable for users who need a **reliable travel charger** that supports a wide range of USB-C devices, from laptops to smartphones. Combined with the included high-quality cable, this package offers outstanding **value and performance**.
**Highly recommended for engineers, power users, and professionals who demand efficiency, reliability, and portability.**

Like everyone, I've purchased many chargers through the years and in the past I have tended to just buy whatever was the cheapest. I've learned that it ends up being cheaper in the long run to buy a better quality charger (faster, too) and pay a bit more. I think I own 7-8 chargers made by Anker and every one has performed admirably and I have not had a single one fail, something I can't say about the cheap chargers I have to replace often. Works to charge your Macbook even, so overall this is a great purchase.

I think I've bought 3 of these now. I use them to fast charge stuff and even power laptops that take usb-c. Having an extra power source lets me leave my original power cord at my desk. I plug one of these into the inverter in my car and run my laptop on the go. Except my wife steals them. Life isn't perfect.

This is a great buy. I travelled with out my laptop charger & found this at a Best Buy in Indiana & this save the day. I was able to work remotely & it powered up my laptop just fine. It was also an open box buy which made the deal even sweeter. This will be my new travel charger. Definitely recommend.

This charger is AWESOME! I am SO grateful that the Best Buy employee recommended it for my laptop...AND I can charge both my phone & computer at the same time if needed! The size is nice...much less cumbersome than the traditional black "clunky" laptop chargers. Great for travel too!

A bit pricey for these crazy things - but that’s not on Best Buy. It is a very fast charger and has many connection options. I like the weight, feel and materials of the device. I’m happy w it. I was on a trip and brought the wrong charger for my computer so was sad to have to fork out the $$$ but relieved Best Buy had it in stock and the staff were very knowledgeable and helpful!

I was on the fence. How much difference could a change in brick make? I decided to give it a try. It makes a HUGE difference. My phone is charged twice as fast as it used to. The plug does make a difference. With more and more cords being usbc to usbc I needed something that took usbc and this fits that bill also. Would highly recommend.

I love this charger! I love that it has two ports.(one that's a PD USB-C port that had a 45watt output and one that's a USB A 15watt output). I love that because of the two ports I can charge my laptop/tablet and my phone with the same charging brick. I wish that I could charge the tablet and the computer at the same time but that may be too much to ask haha. The only other thing I wish would be that Anker add removable prongs so you could add an extension just like the Apple MacBook charger. I do love that the 60W charger is smaller and weights slightly less so it's great for travel. Anyways, other than that it's the perfect charger!

I purchased this product for the option to charging two devices ar the same time with USB-C port. It surely not disappoint as it fast charging phone, iPad o MacBook Air in record time. It is cost effective and I decided that I needed an extra one. The blue light showing that it is charging is a plus.
