USB-C Power Delivery has standardised laptop charging, meaning one compact charger can power devices from multiple brands. GaN technology has made chargers smaller and lighter than ever, perfect for travel and remote work.

How Much Wattage Do You Need?
Ultrabooks (13-14 inch) typically need 45-65W. Standard 15-inch laptops need 65-100W. Gaming and workstation laptops may need 100-140W or more. Always match or exceed your laptop’s original charger wattage for reliable charging under load. Our Charger Compatibility Guide has specific recommendations by model.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use any USB-C charger for my laptop?
Your charger must support USB Power Delivery (PD) and provide enough wattage. A lower-wattage charger may charge slowly or not at all under load.
Will a higher wattage charger damage my laptop?
No — your laptop only draws what it needs. A 100W charger on a 65W laptop is perfectly safe.

How we verify this guide
We cross-reference compatibility figures against manufacturer specifications where available, official service manuals, and the standards that govern fit — memory type and speed (DDR4 / DDR5 / LPDDR5), maximum supported capacity and slot count, SSD form factor and interface (M.2 2280, NVMe PCIe vs SATA, keying), and charger wattage and connector (USB-C Power Delivery, GaN). We’re explicit about soldered or non-upgradeable parts, prioritise primary sources over retailer listings, and re-verify the data on a regular cycle. More on our method →
