Ugreen has brought its ultra-slim 100W charger to the UK under the name Nexode Air Slim 100W.
The card-style charger, originally launched in China as the Mini Ice GaN charger, now features foldable UK-standard plugs and costs £59.99.
The Nexode Air Slim 100W packs two USB-C ports and one USB-A port into its thin, card-shaped body.
Either USB-C port can deliver up to 100W on its own, enough for most laptops, while the USB-A port supports up to 22.5W.
When charging two or three devices simultaneously, the first connected device still receives between 60W and 80W, depending on the setup.
This makes the charger suitable for powering a laptop and phone at the same time.
GaN Technology and Design
Inside, Ugreen uses a new GaN (Gallium Nitride) chip and claims 93% conversion efficiency.
Higher efficiency means less energy is wasted as heat, helping the charger stay cooler and allowing Ugreen to keep the body thin.
The foldable prongs are a key design feature.
UK plugs can take up space, but the Nexode Air Slim 100W's prongs fold into the charger when not in use, making it easier to slip into a laptop sleeve, backpack, or small pocket without getting caught.
The flat design also helps in tight spaces.
Unlike a typical bulky charger, the card-shaped body can sit closer to the wall when charging behind furniture or in cramped spots.
Ugreen has included standard safety protections against overvoltage, overcurrent, overheating, and short circuits. These safeguards are common in modern chargers but remain important for daily use.
At £59.99, the Nexode Air Slim 100W is priced close to Ugreen's Nexode Pro 100W charger, which launched in the UK last month.
The Nexode Pro has a four-port design and a color display, while the Air Slim focuses on keeping the charger as thin as possible.
