Review on JUYOON Charger GL62MVR GP62MVR Gigabyte by Brian Rogel

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not quite a replacement for Chicony A15-180P1A

I was looking for a replacement AC adapter for my overpowered Walmart brand laptop. OEM PSU - Chicony A15-180P1A. As far as I know, Asus or MSI laptops (and others) can also use the same/similar PSU. This JUYOON 19.5V 9.23A 180W charger works in the sense that it charges the laptop perfectly. However, the brick is bulky and slightly heavier than the OEM. But that's not the problem for which I gave 3 stars. The problem is that the tip of the connector is slightly shorter than the OEM, causing it not to be fully inserted and very easy to fall out when inserted. If you move the laptop and pull the power cord a little, it will fall out. In fact, it kept falling out whenever I held the laptop on my lap. The only way I could use the laptop was to put it on the table and not move it at all.

Pros
  • Tablet Accessory
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
