Exactly a month ago, Meizu announced a GaN
(Gallium Nitride) charger with three ports and a 65W power output. If you want
to pick up the ¥ 199 (US$ 28) charger, you will still have to wait a few more
weeks but the good news is that it is
now on pre-sale ahead of its eventual release on June 18.
The Meizu GaN charger has two USB-C ports
and a USB-A port. Each port has a maximum output of 65W and can be used to
charge a variety of devices including the new MacBook Pro. Meizu even adds
charging support for devices that require micro-currents such as fitness
trackers, smartwatches, and Bluetooth headsets.
The charger supports multiple charging
protocols including Quick Charge 3.0, Power Delivery 3.0, Samsung’s Adaptive
Fast Charging, Programmable Power Supply (PPS), Huawei’s Fast Charging Protocol
(FCP) and MediaTek’s Pump Express 2.0.
Below are the various supported power
outputs of the charger:
- USB-C Port 1 – 3.3.V-21V/3A, 5V/3A, 9V/3A, 12V/3A, 20V/3.25A
