The market for USB-C charging technology, specifically utilizing Gallium Nitride (GaN) for compact and efficient power delivery, shows continued consumer interest through product reviews and retail promotions. Recent retail activity on Amazon includes discounts on high-performance 65W GaN chargers from Baseus and UGREEN, as well as high-power solutions like the AOHI Magcube 140W. Specifically, the Baseus 65W model, featuring two USB-C and one USB-A port, and the UGREEN Nexode 65W, which utilizes ThermalGuard 2.0 to protect against overheating, have seen price reductions. In mid-September, Elecom Co., Ltd. released new dual-port USB Type-C AC chargers in Japan. The lineup includes a 20W USB Power Delivery model and a 30W model that supports both USB Power Delivery and PPS.
