Anker Prime 67W A2669 versus Mcdodo and others USB Showdown

[@whathehec]

Dude thank you so much for doing these! I can watch these all days.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Thanks!

[@tyronewalker5764]

Yes sir we'll done! I'm in the market.

[@thefancyapple1823]

Another great review as always, can't wait for the anker 240w desktop charger review and keep up the good work!

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

haha, yeah, I'm avoiding that one. It looks like it's a 140W max single port adapter with an extra 100W tacked on but yeah eventually it'll be on. No rush on that one.

[@aliancemd]

To add another angle to "100W is more power efficient and does more"(also just watched the 735/737/747 review where you suggest skipping all 65W PA): I bought initially Anker 120W(737), mostly for my laptop but later bought Anker's 67W(A2669) and switched to that because 120W was almost overheating the battery while 67W charges it plenty fast without heating the battery at all(at least the surface of the laptop does not change temps, it seems) - in my calculation, the cost of the laptop(degrading the battery - I had a phone die on me fast because of fast charging overheating the battery) is significantly higher than a few W I might be losing.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

That is an angle, but it is also up to the device to decide how fast to charge. The power adapter is just the supply. There is always the option of using a 60W rated USB cable to force a slower charge with a more efficient adapter. For phones, yeah, it's ridiculous, they're forcing charging speeds that small batteries can't handle and it may work for a few demos but in the long run the batteries do not last. Samsung has a toggle for those faster charging modes for a reason. The power adapter doesn't force anything on the device though. So, if a laptop maker decides to allow fast charging they hopefully did the work to make sure the battery and electronics can handle that.

[@Clickworker101]

I just wanted and power adapter to be a small as possible and able charge my 60w laptop and smart phone, so I picked the 67 watt before I had seen your review.

Some devices use 12V. I think it's most useful to use one of these adapters as a replacement for a couple wall warts since a lot of those end up being 12V.

After the star showing of the Prime 100w, it is disappointing to see that the Prime 67w looks to be a step back from the 735.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yeah, typical though.

[@ethereal026]

In terms of efficiency, yeah it seems like that. The power distribution between the USB-C ports is more flexible with this one though. And now it also has the 12-V PD output, that was typically lacking in Anker chargers. But if efficiency is very important to you, yeah, it looks like a step back. Edit: mistype.

[@SamJessop]

@@ethereal026 I bought the 735 with UK plug for £35, and rarely need to charge really quickly. I’ll stick with this for the time being but was hoping for more efficient lower wattage chargers by now.

[@ethereal026]

Thanks for your video!! You always provide the info no one else does. I bought the Anker A2669 some weeks before I got to know your channel. Although it works perfectly with all my devices and looks like a quality product, now I'm kinda regretting my purchase. It looks like a step back from the A2668 in terms of efficiency. I've had always great experience with Anker products, but in this particular case, I'm a bit disappointed with the brand.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

If it works that is a good and hopefully it keeps working for a long time. The efficiency is close, splitting hairs on the differences really. Anker does tend to release products on both ends of the spectrum each time. In this case really average with the competition.

[@ethereal026]

​@@AllThingsOnePlaceAfter my initial disappointment with this charger, I've come to view it in a more positive way. This new version does support 5 amps in PPS mode (IIRC, the previous version only supported up to 3 amps). And the power distribution between the different outputs is more flexible in the new version. All in all, I no longer see this adapter to be a bad purchase. It fills my needs for a smartphone charger that supports PPS mode. And it's also great as a 65W charger for a laptop I only use from time to time.

[@renzyuddin]

Great video , currently i just lost my anker 737, usually use to charge my Thinkpad but I have some issue because it need some time to make it normal charge because it's voltage maybe,now im looking for the replacement between anker a2669 and anker735, I do compare between them ,it says that a2669 can simultaneously charge 2 port in 65 watt but not with anker 735 ,is is right, i still dont get how its efficiency effect in daily use ,is it to the battery life or how, please give the recommendation between a668 67 and 735 or maybe other ugreen thanks for your reply

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Thanks! I don't have any specific plans for that style, I've looked at several in various videos. There's little reasoning to the adapters I pick, just pick some and test them. I do have some more multiport lower wattage adapters to test though. As far as what is the best one so far monoprice 42620 is good if you only need to charge phones and lower powered devices. The Insignia has a few less output options but it can charge 20V devices as a bonus over the monoprice, then the mcdodo 40W dual port has lots of charging modes so probably the most capable but it is a little less efficient. The apple 35W ones aren't amazing and very expensive.

[@burhanbudak6041]

I wonder how a homemade GaN charger would be like if size isn't a issue?

Yeah, you can squeeze a few more percent out, you really have to overbuild to get more though. Switch topologies, spend an unreal amount of time and money optimizing the transformer.

[@gregh9762]

65w cube is my go to in term of size and capability, especially for travel. 100w 3rd party GaN isn't much different in size compared to older si adaptor.

The 100W prime charger, ha. Nano II and the GaNPrime are both about equal. If I needed more ports the GanPrime is probably the choice for most people due to that.

Una pregunta, porque los cargadores se calientan más después de varios usos. Me acuerdo cuando tiento algunos cargadores nuevos en sus primeras cargas y en cuestión de días calientan más y asi se mantiene la temperatura a futuro. Muchas gracias

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yeah, it is difficult to gauge what is hot for these chargers. The smaller they get the warmer the cases seem to be though. 60 degrees c on the case seems to be pretty normal.

[@joelnrs]

Could you explain how the Anker “active shield 2.0” works? I have looked on the Anker website and on the Amazon listing, but there are no real technical details or parameters on it. I was looking for find out if it monitors the device battery temperature ? Under what protocol would the device battery temperature send that information to the charger? Or does it only monitor the temperature of the charging brick itself and use that as the reference temperature? I have learned a lot from you and any input you have on this would be appreciated!

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yeah, just from a power electronics perspective and teardowns I've seen, it use a separate microcontroller to monitor internal temperatures. It will essentially force a renegotiation of the USB power level to a lower level if the temperature gets too hot. Any claims of the battery or device end sounds like it's not true, I've seen this on various ads for power adapters and it's just not true. The device can also trigger a renegotiation or just ask for less power anytime, but that's on the device side. Essentially the communications is about power level between the devices.

[@joelnrs]

Thanks!

[@ys-50989]

Which will be the safest charger for laptop(65w) and mobile(25-45w) , for longer term usage which will not damage the battery more pls suggest

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Kind of take your pick, there are plenty of safe options on the market. I generally stay away from 65W devices. The Amazon Basics 65W is okay, but it's only one port. As you say more, damage is inevitable in batteries, every charge and discharge cycle causes the battery to degrade a little. The charger being sized appropriately and the device only using what it needs while managing temperatures is what makes the battery last longer. I personally like a 20 - 30 W charger like the UGREEN 30W Nexode, or the Google 30W charger, Belkin is good too...

[@waqasshafiq4581]

Good work as always 🎉

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Thank you so much 😀

[@enricovids]

Can chargers really damage batteries? Isn't it up to the device to regulate the power coming in to ensure things remain safe? The charger is just a supply. One of my apps monitors temps during charging and I find my phone will slow down the charging once the battery gets up to a certain temp. Yes heat is bad for a battery but that is integrated over time. That's why if I were for example doing a wireless charge vs a cabled charge, I'd rather just plug it in and shorten the amount of time my battery gets warm. Some of these phones charge so fast, I'm pretty sure the heat from CPU or a hot environment hurts the battery more since it is over a prolonged period vs the few minutes that it's charging.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

The charger can inflict damage in uncontrolled situations, modern phones don't really allow this, they do as you say, regulate. Some phones, allow damage essentially by letting you opt in to faster charging, Samsung 45W charging for example. But yeah, even still there are protections in place. Long term charging at 45W peak versus 20W peak has some suspected impact. The issue is there's not a lot of published information out there on this. Battery specific data sure, mostly all paywalled or double paywalled, IEEE is double paywalled now, but no data on in device performance and degradation. It takes a long time and no one wants to do it. I'd do it if it was funded.

[@enricovids]

@@AllThingsOnePlace I think it is pretty hard to research this unless one is able to break things down and really determine what's going on. I've already read that for battery health, you avoid heat and don't over/under charge. Outside of heat, I don't know if actually charging at higher power alone does anything to damage the battery. That is what I was curious about. I suppose if one really wants to be safe, they can hook their phone up to a 5W charger and let it sit. On the other hand (my own theory) if I just fast charge it at top speed, I can literally charge my phone in a few minutes. So how bad is exposure to heat for a few minutes? I don't know. I know wireless charging causes my phone to heat up even slow charging so I figure that is bad either way. Even if one can plot out a curve of charging speed vs time vs battery life degradation, one also needs to factor in how much usage of the phone degrades the battery. If I'm in a hot environment, playing a game, etc, the phone will heat up too. Sometimes much longer than a charge cycle. My theory is that this has more of an affect on battery life than the few minutes I'm charging for. Then, how long does the average person keep their phone for and how bad does it have to get to matter. My phone brand knew lasted over two days with "average" use. 5yrs later, it's now just under one day. (ie. on a busy day, I may need to recharge). It's only now that I really care but after 5yrs, I want a new phone anyways. I think its like nutritional epidemiology. There's just way too many variables to get a good answer. BTW, if you want to link to some IEEE articles, those of us can access might be interested in reading what's out there.

Would you recommend the anker 67w for small devices like phones Earbuds and a nintendo switch and bluetooth speaker? I dont got any large devices like a laptop

Ok, I got a question. You’re saying the older Anker 735 was a better performing adapter compared to their new 67W adapter. The 735 was not able to charge a Steam Deck optimally (the low charge warning constantly triggered with it), even though it was well within spec to do so, and Anker admitted to the problem. The new 67W adapter can. If the 735 was the “better” adapter, what gives with the Steam Deck charging? This issue existed on all of their 2022 series 7 adapters. I believe this high-visibly issue for them was one of the reasons they released new adapters so quickly. Everyone was looking for Steam Deck adapters in 2022. Any insight into this would be amazing. Thank you!

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yeah, functionally, they made improvements to the whole line which is certainly welcome. I kind of roll that into the it negotiates better but keep it vague purposefully since it can cover so much. In this case the device is marginally less efficient. As I was saying in the video they’re really all kind of the same for power performance, it comes down to that better charging negotiation with more devices.

[@roguegeek]

@@AllThingsOnePlace Makes sense. Thanks kindly, sir! Always looking forward to your videos.

[@roguegeek]

@@AllThingsOnePlace Oh fyi, I mentioned this in an Amazon review recently. Anker got back to me immediately and offered refunds on all of my 2022 adapters, even though I bought them over a year ago. Kinda crazy. Anyway, keep up the great work.

[@roguegeek]

@@AllThingsOnePlace So negotiation capabilities can potentially equate to compatibility?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

@@roguegeek In some sense yes, the adapter figures out what's plugged in and how to deliver power more effectively, in this case they also added more modes, it doesn't mean it'll deliver more power by any means or if the requests are beyond the capability it will work but that of course makes sense. Also, crazy on the refund policy, Anker is more expensive but in general I have heard good things about the customer service.

[@oniyusemeblade7261]

Can you help me please I already ordered anker 735 65 w After that I came across anker 335 67 wat comes with cable 5A which I don't have I only have cable c that come with my s22u in box Should I cancel my 735 and buy the 335 because of the cable 5A ????? They are almost the same price on amazon right now

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

I would expect the S22 to come with a 5 amp cable. The three series Anker adapters tend to be measurably worse on the performance side. But it is up to you!

[@ShamsSubin]

Can you pls comments on the Basus CCGP120001 65 watts Charger?

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

I believe that's the same as what the US market has as the GaN6 charger. I haven't looked at it yet but I have it.

[@validatedev]

I bought a Spigen 65W one (probably from an older series as it says PowerArc), and what I found is that there is a coil whine, which led me to refund the item. I have a McDodo one also, and it is worse than the Spigen :) I have a bunch of Apple adapters, and they are awesome; I do not hear any coil whine once, but I need a 60-65W dual/triple power adapter. Or do you have any other recommendations (you can advise any other charger which has headroom)? Gonna use the adapter with iPad Air (30/35W max) and 36W (9V 4A) max MagSafe charging station. Which brand/adapter has the least coil whine other than Apple? Thanks in advance!

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yeah, apple appears to try to make their OEM spends some time and effort on the quality of the adapters. The issue you will face with 65w adapters is they don't share fair. Also, 9V4A is not a valid request for USB PD, so that is a proprietary connection or requires PPS and a 5A cable, and a charger that will go that far. You are in the 100W adapter space to get compatible modes of operation.

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

I swear I answered this comment. Anyway, apple is kind of the top dog. Anker usually does a good job filling adapters to reduce noise.

[@validatedev]

@AllThingsOnePlace For the magsafe charger, I have found that it also supports 9V 2A (slower mode it seems, but really don’t care). Probably gonna buy from Anker, as I suppose they are using better components and isolate such cases better. Haven’t tried though. Thank you for the recommendation!

I don't know if they have the Bavin brand on where you live but Bavin sell some cheaply suspicious gan chargers rated at 100w, they actually sell 3 types 100w gan chargers ranging from 26-36 usd if you convert it from our currency with each being around 4 dollars more expensive than the previous one. There's also the romoss 100 and 140w gan charger as well as aukey. If you ever get your hands on them, I would like to see a review of them and see how they fair. Thank you

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

The Aukey stuff was not great that I looked at. I didn't get any higher wattage ones though. I haven't seen the Bavin brand yet though but I will keep an eye out for them.

[@whatever_6785]

​@@AllThingsOnePlaceBavin is quite a popular brand here at southeast asia and sell a lot of consumer electronics. They mostly focus on charging devices though like chargers, cables and powerbanks which are very cheap compared to competitors and they recently released multiple gan chargers rated at 100w which I found pretty weird seeing that they only differ in their design with two being rectangular(one with 3, the other with 4 ports) while the most expensive one is square shaped(has 4 ports). I don't see many people reviewing bavin chargers as in depth as you so I would like to see your opinion on their products seeing that the items they focus on aligns with your channel...

No, it's a bunch of criteria for AC safety of the device.

UGREEN has some listed devices and some aren't. If it isn't generally I steer clear.

[@ehern87]

Great video, I was thinking about getting the newer 67W Anker just because it's smaller than the older 65W one, but after watching this I'll probably go for one of the higher output ones since they seem to be more effcient and can also charge a secondary device in addtion to my laptop or ROG Ally. Any chance you can review the 65W GaN USB C Charger by RUIDUN? It looks like a great travel option for my ROG Ally, it's pretty unique in terms of form factor and charging capabilities, 65W out of the USB-C and 45W QC on USB-A. Thanks for the videos

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Yeah, I'm kind of in the same boat. The 100W just does more and works with more devices. I haven't tested any RUIDUN devices yet.

Probably 100w since it offers enough power for several devices.

It is a trickly question because it is device specific. If you are only charging a phone, then any 30W adapter or smaller is plenty good. If you have a laptop or other devices, then add more ports, you need more watts.

[@YukonHawk1]

GAN doesn't seem to have much of an advantage as I thought. Seems run of the mill....

[@AllThingsOnePlace]

Well, it's interesting, so you can make things smaller since you drive the frequency higher but then you have more losses in the switching since you drove the frequency higher. Also, GaN devices do tend to have higher on resistance which also cancels some of the gains. With the all in one packages available you get more efficiency from other parts of the circuit though.
