Review on 🔌 UtechSmart USB C Charger: 100W 4-Port Desktop Type C Charging Station with USB C PD Power and QC 3.0 USB A Ports – Ideal for MacBook Pro/Air, iPad, iPhone, Galaxy, Laptop and More by Robert Weeks

I bought this 100W UtechSmart USB power bank to power various smartphones, tablets and Chromebooks around my home faster and in one central place charge. I wasn't disappointed. This device can simultaneously power on four devices with two USB-A and two USB-C. It's also great for charging laptops that can be charged via a USB-C power input. The overall design of this power supply has a bold metallic look and is sized in proportion to the amount of cooling needed to keep four devices charged at 100W, which is quite a heavy current flow for microelectronics. I've found in the past that chargers that draw more than 25W can get very hot when multiple devices are connected due to the lack of passive cooling on the internal capacitors. Quality electronics have heatsinks in all the right places to keep these devices cool, just like this Utechsmart charger. This charger is larger than many lower power devices but proportional to the power provided. It's still smaller than a laptop's built-in transformer and dissipates heat much better. Even when the four devices were running almost at full speed, it never heated up noticeably when touched. The UsmartTech desktop charger appears to be able to charge new devices at QuickCharge2 and QC3 speeds that support this feature, with up to four devices connected at the same time. Devices tested include Pixel 4XL, Nexus 6P, LG V20, iPhone 11 Pro, iPad Mini and two HP x360 Chromebooks. Any device charged faster with this charger than the original chargers and they didn't overheat. For some reason it doesn't seem to want to charge my old Samsung Galaxy S6, although the problem is probably that the phone doesn't have the proper circuitry to prevent overcharging. This is not a screaming device. It does exactly what it claims to do: draws enough power to charge four smart devices safely and quickly, faster than the devices' own power adapters in most cases, which is impressive.
