Design and Features
Baseus 65W PD GaN3 Fast Wall Charger Block is a compact charger with GaN charging technology. Gallium nitride (GaN) chargers do not require as many components as silicon chargers, making them smaller and more efficient.
The Type-C port delivers up to 65W of power and can charge a Macbook Pro 13-inch in less than 2 hours. The Baseus charger is also compatible with Apple 20W PD and Samsung AFC 45W fast charge, charging the iPhone 13 to 50% in half an hour, three times faster than the original 5W charger.
Baseus BPS smart power distribution technology will provide optimal charging for each device when multiple devices are plugged in at the same time. You can charge up to four devices at the same time.

I like angled wall plugs, but if you have a particular place where you want to plug it in, you need to consider that; they can sometimes interfere with other plugs. Also, the mains cord for this charger doesn’t unplug, so that’s something you should consider if you’re putting it in the pocket of your laptop bag.
I printed a remote/charger stand for my living room coffee table and it makes plugging in the Baseus charger a breeze. GaN charging technology ensures that there are no heat dissipation issues.
what do I like
- Efficient Gallium Nitride (GaN) Technology
- AC input cable has velcro tape
what would i change
- Preferably with a detachable power cord
final thoughts
The Baseus 65W PD GaN3 Fast Wall Charger Block works as advertised, charges well and stores well.
