Review on Nekteck 100W USB C Charger: GaN Tech, USB-IF Certified, Foldable Plug - Fast Charging for iPhone, MacBook Air/Pro, iPad, Galaxy, iPhone 11/XS/XR by Rachel Ford

Revainrating 5 out of 5

2019 16 " MacBook Pro won't charge at 85W; forget the 100W

Like other reviewers, I found this charger to have trouble connecting to an outlet. The pins are too narrow so it keeps slipping out of the socket. I switched to an extension cord to avoid this problem. However, this usually stops charging my 2019 16" MacBook Pro after 10-20 seconds after a few weeks of use. The overload protection disables the charger so you have to unplug it to reset it. When I hear the faint click of that reset I can plug it back in and charge another 10-20 seconds before it dies again. I decided to leave it untouched and get a refund instead.

Pros
  • New to my collection
Cons
  • Hard to tell
