The Charger Drawer Is Full. Which Plug Earns Its Spot?

Both plugs have three ports, but only one includes a cable and keeps a rated 45W laptop port while all three sockets are busy. The other is a smaller-power choice with a stronger seller history.

30-second verdict

Choose the UGREEN Nexode 65W CD244 if your laptop accepts a 65W supply, you already own a suitable cable, and you mainly charge one power-hungry device at a time. Choose the INIU A11-E1 100W if you need its included 100W-rated cable and the published 45W + 30W + 22.5W three-port allocation. The exact black Canadian offers were new and in stock for Balzac T4B 2T3, with Add to cart and Buy Now. UGREEN GROUP LIMITED sold the UGREEN and Amazon shipped it; Amazon.ca sold and shipped the INIU. Check your laptop's input requirement and your phone's charging protocol before assuming either advertised wattage will be delivered.

Nexode CD244 65W 3-Port Charger

Black · 2 USB-C + 1 USB-A · ASIN B091BGMKYS
CAD29.97 new deal checked 24 Sep 2026

The CD244 offers two USB-C ports and one USB-A port in a foldable wall block. UGREEN's Canadian page rates a single USB-C connection up to 65W; with more devices attached, that total power must be shared, and the checked Canadian official page does not provide an exact split table. The Amazon box list names the charger and manual, not a cable. Matching Black-option feedback mentions carrying it easily and charging a phone, watch and earbuds from the same block. UGREEN GROUP LIMITED sold the selected new offer, and Amazon shipped it. The seller profile claims authorized Canadian status and showed 4.9/5 from 3,106 recent seller ratings. For Samsung fast-charging needs, check the exact protocol: UGREEN's Canadian page says 25W PPS only, while Amazon's listing uses different 45W PPS wording.

A11-E1 100W 3-Port GaN Charger

Black · 2 USB-C + 1 USB-A · ASIN B0CB1D82NB
CAD39.98 new deal checked 24 Sep 2026

INIU publishes a model-specific output table: one USB-C can supply up to 100W; two USB-C ports are rated 70W+30W; with all three occupied, the rated split is 45W+30W+22.5W. This makes the charger more flexible when a laptop and smaller devices must share an outlet, though a laptop requiring more than 45W may still need to be charged alone. The selected Black Amazon offer includes a five-foot/1.5-metre 100W-rated braided USB-C cable. INIU states three-year support for the model. Matching Black-option review feedback mentions convenient simultaneous charging and easy portability. Amazon.ca sold and shipped the selected new offer.

What we researched

The checked Canadian offers are distinct manufacturers' three-port chargers, not colour or bundle variants of one device. UGREEN's CD244 provides a 65W single-port ceiling, while INIU's A11-E1 provides a 100W single-port ceiling, an included cable and a published multi-port power table. UGREEN's offer showed 1K+ bought in the past month and 13,018 global ratings; INIU's showed 500+ and 3,432. These are changing signals for the selected listings, not market share or an overall popularity rank. Rating pools may cover grouped colours. Neither charger was electrically tested by us.

Key findings

The wattage on the front is a ceiling

A 65W or 100W badge describes an upper limit under certain conditions. For a laptop plus phone and earbuds, use the occupied-port allocation. INIU publishes its 70W+30W and 45W+30W+22.5W arrangements; UGREEN's checked Canadian page does not specify a matching table, so do not assume its laptop port stays at 65W when all ports are busy.

High

A cable can settle the travel kit

The checked INIU offer includes a 100W-rated USB-C cable. The UGREEN box list names a charger and manual. If you already own a cable that supports your laptop's charging requirement, the included lead may matter less than the block's port arrangement.

High

Check Samsung charging by protocol, not headline wattage

UGREEN's Canadian manufacturer page says its 10334 supports 25W PPS but not 45W PPS; the selected Amazon description uses different PPS wording. Because the claims conflict, buyers seeking a specific Samsung super-fast charging mode should confirm the exact current model and required PPS profile before ordering. We did not measure either charger.

Pre-purchase checklist

Sources

Open the original material directly.

Candidate search
Amazon Canada · 65W GaN charger candidate searchScreened branded three-port chargers, single-port blocks, laptop replacement adapters, travel adapters and low-review offers. A promising Anker 715 page mixed a 65W title with 20W product bullets, so it was excluded. Best Sellers sort was used only for discovery, not as a market sales ranking. Checked 24 September 2026.
Local listing
Amazon Canada · UGREEN Nexode CD244 exact black offerASIN B091BGMKYS, model CD244, Black three-port 65W wall charger. New CAD29.97 deal, In Stock, sold by UGREEN GROUP LIMITED and shipped by Amazon, with Balzac T4B 2T3 delivery, Add to cart and Buy Now. Listing showed 4.5/5 from 13,018 global ratings and 1K+ bought in the past month. Two USB-C plus one USB-A, foldable plug; included components list charger and manual, not a cable. Its PPS claim differs from UGREEN's Canadian product page.
Local listing
Amazon Canada · INIU A11-E1 exact black offerASIN B0CB1D82NB, model A11-E1, Black 100W three-port wall charger. New CAD39.98 deal, In Stock, sold and shipped by Amazon.ca, with Balzac T4B 2T3 delivery, Add to cart and Buy Now. Listing showed 4.6/5 from 3,432 global ratings and 500+ bought in the past month. Includes a 5-foot/1.5-metre 100W-rated braided USB-C cable; listing specifies 70W+30W for two USB-C devices and 45W+30W+22.5W for all three ports.
Manufacturer product page
UGREEN Canada · Nexode 65W three-port product pageManufacturer's Canadian 10334 page confirms 65W from one USB-C connection, 2 USB-C plus 1 USB-A, foldable plug and GaN design. It says only 25W PPS and not 45W PPS, conflicting with the selected Amazon page's PPS wording. No measured charging speed or output sharing table is inferred from this page.
Manufacturer specification
INIU · A11-E1 exact-model specificationsModel A11-E1 has two USB-C and one USB-A. Manufacturer rates one USB-C up to 100W, C1+C2 at 70W+30W and three-port output at 45W+30W+22.5W; lists an included cable and three-year support. These are rated outputs, not independent electrical measurements.
Matching-option owner review
Amazon Canada · UGREEN black-option owner feedbackFive-star verified Canadian Black-option review dated 4 November 2025 mentions carrying the compact block and using its two USB-C and one USB-A ports for a phone, watch and earbuds. It is user experience, not a wattage or temperature test.
Matching-option owner review
Amazon Canada · INIU black-option owner feedbackFive-star verified Canadian Black-option review dated 25 July 2026 mentions that several daily devices can share the three-port charger and that the block is easy to carry. The review does not establish the actual power or temperature delivered under load.
Seller profile
Amazon Canada · UGREEN GROUP LIMITED seller profileThe selected UGREEN seller profile identifies UGREEN GROUP LIMITED as the authorized Canadian Amazon seller for authentic UGREEN products. It showed 4.9/5 across 3,106 seller ratings in the past 12 months; this is seller-service feedback, not a product rating or a guarantee for an individual order.
Method
On 24 September 2026 we screened Amazon Canada Best Sellers-sorted search results for candidates only, then checked exact ASINs, selected Black variants, new buy boxes, sellers, shippers, Balzac T4B 2T3 delivery and purchase buttons. A high-signal Anker candidate was excluded because its page mixed model-specific and older 20W bullet copy. We read one five-star verified Canadian Black-option review for each selected charger, opened UGREEN's seller profile and compared both makers' product pages. UGREEN's Canadian PPS statement conflicts with its Amazon listing, so we disclose it and do not promise a phone-specific charging mode. We did not electrically test power, speed, heat or safety. Recent-purchase labels and global ratings belong to selected listings, may span variants and are not market-share or sales-rank evidence. Prime eligibility was not independently confirmed for either selected buy box. Product selection was independent of affiliate availability.
