For a laptop that needs 65W while your phone charges, choose a charger with a documented 65W simultaneous output. The UGREEN Nexode 100W 4-Port provides a 65W + 30W combination; the Anker 735 Nano II 65W provides 45W + 20W. Both may suit a laptop and phone, but they meet different power targets.
Start with the power adapter recommended for your exact laptop. If 45W meets its requirements, the Anker is a candidate. If your target is 65W with both devices connected, the UGREEN is the closer match. Apple’s 35W dual-port adapter belongs on a lower-power shortlist, especially when the second device is a watch or earbuds.
Know the wattage targets for both devices? Use the two-device USB-C power calculator to compare documented port pairs for Anker A2667, UGREEN Nexode 100W 3C1A and Anker A2697. It shows which device goes on which port; keep the other ports free. The Apple 35W adapter is not included in the calculator.
Choose by the pair you charge together
The figures below are manufacturer-specified output limits. The device, cable and supported charging profiles determine what can actually be drawn.
| Charger | Useful pairing | Simultaneous allocation | Main compromise |
|---|---|---|---|
| Anker 735 Nano II 65W (A2667) | 45W laptop target + 20W phone target | USB-C1: 45W; USB-C2: 20W | Its 65W single-port rating is unavailable to the laptop in this pairing. |
| UGREEN Nexode 100W 4-Port (3C1A) | 65W laptop target + up to 30W phone target | USB-C1: 65W; USB-C2: 30W | Adding a third USB-C device reduces C1 to 45W. |
| Apple 35W Dual USB-C Port Power Adapter | Mac or iPhone + Watch or AirPods | Up to 27.5W + 7.5W | Mac + iPhone/iPad instead gets up to 17.5W each. |
Anker 735: when 45W for the laptop is enough
The Anker 735 Nano II, model A2667, has two USB-C ports and one USB-A port. Either USB-C port can supply up to 65W alone. Use C1 for the laptop and C2 for the phone to obtain the 45W + 20W split.
The socket choice matters: C2 plus USB-A is limited to 12W per port. This is a poor combination for a laptop. Check the A2667 model number when shopping; a shared product-family name does not establish the same output table.
Choose it when your laptop’s documented requirements fit the 45W allocation, or when you usually charge the laptop alone. If you already own it and only occasionally need the full single-port output, charging the phone separately may remove the reason to buy another adapter.
UGREEN Nexode 100W: a 65W laptop and a phone
The UGREEN Nexode 100W 4-Port wall charger is the option here for a 65W + 30W target. Use the first two USB-C ports, with the laptop on C1. The lower C3 port is not interchangeable with C2.
Its charging diagram specifies 45W + 30W + 22.5W when all three USB-C ports are used. With all four ports occupied, it specifies 45W, 30W, 10.5W and 10.5W. Four sockets therefore do not preserve the two-device laptop allocation.
UGREEN also documents a brief charging pause when a device is connected or removed. Keep a separate supply for equipment that must remain continuously powered. Check the linked 3C1A wall model rather than applying these figures to Nexode Pro or desktop variants.
Apple 35W: useful for smaller pairs
Apple’s 35W dual-port sharing instructions specify up to 27.5W for a Mac laptop or iPhone paired with up to 7.5W for an Apple Watch or AirPods. Pair a Mac with an iPhone or iPad, and the maxima become 17.5W each.
That makes it a candidate for a low-power pair, especially if it already came with your laptop. It is not the choice for a 45W or 65W laptop target while charging a phone. Apple advises disconnecting the other device and its cable when you need more power for one device.
Check these details before ordering
- Laptop input: find the recommended adapter and USB-C charging requirements for the exact model. If it needs more than 65W during your intended use, neither the Anker nor UGREEN pairing above meets that target.
- Phone charging mode: a wattage allowance alone does not establish support for your phone’s fastest mode. Match its required protocol and voltage/current profile to the chosen port.
- Cables: use cables rated for the intended power, with the correct connectors. A cable’s data speed is a separate specification; see our USB-C power versus data guide.
- Every occupied socket: include the tablet, earbuds or accessory you plan to add later. Recheck the allocation for that combination before buying.
If your existing laptop adapter already meets your needs and the phone can use a second outlet, compare that arrangement with the convenience of a shared charger. Consolidation is most useful when it removes adapters you actually carry without cutting the power your devices require.
