I have been a big fan of Ugreen for the past few years, and I would regard them just as good as Anker for most of the products they make.
Previously, I have reviewed the Ugreen Nexode RG, Ugreen Nexode Pro GaN Fast Charger, Ugreen Nexode 300W 5-Port PD GaN Desk Charger, Ugreen Diginest Cube, Ugreen Nexode 140W GaNFast Charger and many more.
The Ugreen Nexode 100W GaN wall charger is largely the same as the other Nexode chargers I have reviewed.
The main thing you need to know is that it is a four-port charger consisting of three USB-C ports and a single USB-A port. It has a maximum output of 100W, with the first and second USB-C ports being capable of 100W when a single device is connected.

Performance
The Ugreen Nexode charger performs exactly as expected. I used it to charge my Anker 737 Power Bank and EcoFlow River 2 which both can handle 100W input and have displays to show the input power. I then populated the other ports with various other devices, such as the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, Honor 200 Pro and Vivo iQOO 12.
The charger was capable of charging all the devices at the correct wattage based on the above port configurations.
I have used it as the main charger on my desk for the past few weeks, and it has charged everything reliably.

The Ugreen Nexode 100W GaN 4-port wall charger has an RPR of £49.99 and is available from Ugreen for just £39.99. At the time of writing, Amazon listed it at £37.99.
For more power, Ugreen has the 4-port Nexode Pro, which can do 160W in total with a single port capable of 140W. This is priced at £98.99 and is physically much larger.
Anker has the Prime 100W GaN Wall Charger (3 Ports) which costs £77.48 RRP and is available from Amazon for £60. This also benefits from a foldable prong design making it more convenient for travel.
The Hunda 100W 3-port charger is well-reviewed and available for £49.99.
Overall
There isn’t much to say about the performance of this charger, which I have not previously stated in my older reviews.
It performs as you’d expect, providing the correct power output and matching the power outputs stated in the port configuration.
The charger feels well made; it is quite heavy for its size, but it is small enough to easily fit in a bag.
The main thing to highlight is that Ugreen is a well-known, reputable company, and there are few, if any, like-for-like chargers at a similar price point. The only competing options are from all the random brands on Amazon. While there is nothing normally wrong with those brands, I will also opt for a reputable company like Ugreen if there is a minimal price difference.
