Ugreen Nexode Air 100W launches in the US with a compact design and launch discount
Ugreen has introduced the Nexode Air 100W in the United States, adding a more powerful option to its slim GaN charger lineup. Designed for users who want laptop-level charging power without carrying a bulky adapter, the new model delivers up to 100W through a single USB-C port while keeping the body impressively small.
The Ugreen Nexode Air 100W joins the existing 45W and 65W models in the series, but it is built for more demanding devices such as USB-C laptops, handheld gaming PCs, tablets, and flagship smartphones. At launch, the charger is listed at $49.99, with Prime members able to get it for $35.99 during the current promotional period.
Unlike multi-port chargers, the Nexode Air 100W keeps things simple with one USB-C port. That means it charges only one device at a time, but it also means the full 100W output is available whenever you plug in a compatible device. For users who mainly need a dedicated charger for a MacBook, Windows laptop, iPad, handheld PC, or phone, this single-port design may be more practical than carrying a larger adapter.
Ugreen says the charger can power a MacBook Pro up to 55% in around 30 minutes. It can also charge an iPhone 17 Pro Max up to 68% in the same amount of time, making it a strong option for quick top-ups before work, travel, or a commute.
The biggest highlight is its compact size. Measuring 1.40 x 1.36 x 1.97 inches, the Ugreen Nexode Air 100W is significantly smaller than many traditional 100W chargers. Ugreen claims it is up to 74% smaller than typical 100W adapters, making it easy to slip into a backpack, laptop sleeve, purse, or travel pouch.
The foldable prongs also help with portability. When not in use, they tuck neatly into the charger body, reducing the chance of scratching other items or getting caught inside a bag. This makes the Nexode Air 100W especially appealing for frequent travelers, students, remote workers, and anyone who wants to reduce cable and charger clutter.
Despite the smaller design, Ugreen has included several safety protections. The charger carries TÜV Rheinland, UL, and CSA certifications and includes safeguards against overheating, overcurrent, and other common charging risks. That combination of high power, compact size, and safety certification makes it a practical everyday charger for modern USB-C devices.
Ugreen also includes a 100W USB-C cable in the box, so buyers can take advantage of the charger’s full output without needing to purchase a separate cable.
With its slim design, 100W charging capability, foldable plug, included cable, and launch discount, the Ugreen Nexode Air 100W is positioned as a convenient alternative to larger laptop power adapters. For anyone looking for a compact 100W USB-C GaN charger for travel, work, or daily use, this new model could be a strong option.
