Gallium nitride (GaN) is a semiconductor that conducts electricity more efficiently and generates less heat than silicon-based chargers. This allows them to charge multiple devices faster and have more compact designs.

Sockets: Check that your travel charger includes US, EU, AU and UK sockets so you’re covered wherever you travel in the world.

Power output: If you want to fast-charge your laptop, or charge your phone and laptop simultaneously, consider a charger that supports at least 65W charging.

Size, weight and cost: The current GaN charger sweet spot lies with 65W and 100W devices. More powerful chargers will be bigger, heavier and in some case, much more expensive. If you travel with a lot of devices that need to be charged rapidly, this could still be a viable option for you.

Safety: Look for built-in features like over-voltage, over-current and short-circuit protection that help protect your devices.

Compatibility: Check that the charger supports charging standards your devices use, such as or Programmable Power Supply (PPS) and USB-C Power Delivery (PD).
