MINIX 100W USB Wall Charger, Turbo 4-Port GaN Charger Universal Fast Charging. 2 x USB-C PD 3.0, 2xUSB-A Quick Charge 3.0 for smartphones, tablets, laptops and more. Sold Directly by MINIX. (NEO P2)

I was a little sceptic at first but, I am still amazed of the quality of this product.

Summary – as business user I would choose the MINIX. If as a student user I would more likely opt for the EgoWay.

Earlier in 2021, while hunting for a multi USB charger capable to charge my main HP laptop, Samsung tablets and Samsung phones, the priority then was to ensure the laptop could be powered. Having found USB C to HP converter cable, it was then possible to go ahead to choose an actual charger. Bought the Minix because at the time the search did not reveal EgoWay on Amazon.

The Minix arrived and I was pleased it has USA native plug built in plus 3 converter plugs to slot onto the USA pins for use in other countries. With the 4 options, I knew I could use it in all the 40 countries where I had work assignments before. What I was not entirely happy about was that the plugs feel too flimsy to carry the entire dead weight of the charger. It may be fine if you use it in hotels or offices but I use it on ships and inside trailers on wheels in the desert. A sand storm would make the trailer shake and a storm at sea would undoubtedly end up breaking a plug. So I had to find a way to allow the charger to sit on the desk and be stuck on with velcro to stop it sliding around.

1st attempt was to purchase perfk IEC 320 Adapter Socket, C8 To Cloverleaf Plug C9 Power Adapter. Didn’t work because the socket of C9 did not allow the 2 pins of USA plug to fit.

2nd attempt found the lightest weight extension cable for the task – InLine Euro Male to Euro Female Extension Cable 2 m – but of course need to use the Euro type C adaptor on the Minix first. The side benefit of this particular extension cable is that a Philips Discovery 1200W hair dryer could plug into it. (N.B. for safety reasons I would not recommend this extension cable for hair dryers unless the dryer is low power like this 1200W in the photo. The only trouble was this cable was unfairly expensive to procure in UK. Nevermind it works.

Months later EgoWay was found on Amazon. I bought it without too much hesitation due to the type C7 and C8 power connection (obviates me having to use so many adaptors). I was sure it would be possible to buy the power cables at the relevant airports soon as I arrive in respective countries. When the EgoWay arrived, I was disappointed. It is bigger and heavier than Minix and about twice the size of the HP laptop charger. 2nd disappointment was the HP laptop had to be connected to 1st USB C socket when Samsung Galaxybook laptop was connected to USB C 2, Samsung S7 + to USB A 3 and Samsung S6 lite connected to USB A 4. Swapping HP Probook 455 G7 and Galaxybook to the other way around would not power the HP. By that I concluded the exgtra ports on HP requires extra electrical current to reach them all as compared to the Galaxybook laptop (with 3 less types of ports). To be fair to EgoWay the description does say it is only 90W whereas the Minix is 100W.

If you are a business user and not having to work in earthquake zones, or offshore on ships or in remote caravan crews, then the Minix would be good enough to power two laptops + other equipment. For most other people, the EgoWay would be fine and would be the obvious choice seeing as it has significant cost advantage. If you work in an environment where it rolls, shakes or otherwise vibrates, then EgoWay is also the obvious choice unless you take the trouble to source all the parts independently. Both chargers are good purchases.

This is brilliant. It’s all you need. Been going strong, through 3 countries for a couple of months. Charges everything I own at the best speed available, and it’s tiny. Plugs for most countries – it would be nice if they were built-in because I fear losing them. Other than that, I’ve been wanting something like this for ages, and it’s cut down on so much bulk.

Like everyone these days I have a LOT of USB chargers! But as time goes by and equipment develops the older ones have become less and less effective and I have several devices that need more than a basic charger – and not just the obvious tablets, phones and computers which need a totally different output from their chargers.
This Minix charger will charge pretty much everything that uses USB apart from my Dell XPS 17 – but then it doesn’t claim to be able to do that.
I have two very picky rechargeable studio lights that, until now, would only charge from a very specific PD charger. The Minix will charge them both at the same time!
An excellent device which I will use a LOT!

Charges my MacBook Pro with no issues, at full 100w if nothing else is charging, 80w if I’m charging my phone too. Haven’t saturated all ports at once yet but for traveling this saves a lot hassle and space in my bag. Well worth the money.

Ldt alle Arten von Gerten schnell auf. Einen Stecker mit Kabel wrde ich mir aber wnschen!

Great seller and fast shipping. Love the product. I charge my Max, phone and speaker instantly.

Je l’ai reu il y a quelques jours et pour le moment il fonctionne parfaitement tant pour le chargement de mon smartphone que pour le chargement de mon laptop. Je l’ai command en remplacement d’un quipement aux fonctionnalits quivalentes beaucoup plus volumineux qui prenait de la place dans mon sac laptop et qui ne fonctionnait plus. L’intrt de ce produit est la taille, son ergonomie , son efficacit et la compatibilit avec la plupart des laptop du march disposant d’un port usb-c power delivery 3.

Does the job. Seems to charge my devices faster than the charger that came with it (61W), certainly no slower. Don’t have a meter to prove it chargers my laptop at 100W but it doesn’t seem far off for me to assume it doesn’t.

Also charger my tablet and phone at the same time as laptop. Not sure what power-distribution the minix neo p2 uses, but if I plug my laptop in, then my tablet, then my phone, it chargers them all correctly and at an adequate speed. This is perfect for travel and trips to the library as I only have to carry one brick and four cables, and more importantly I NOW ONLY REQUIRE ONE UK SOCKET! Hooray. Library trips used to be a disaster as I would need 3-4 sockets and there would only be 1 or 2. This is no more.

For reference I also have the Satechi 75W charger and used to take this to the library. This Neo p2 has relegated the Satechi to the confines of my desk in my bedroom. It also feels a lot sturdier: weighting, flex, durability, etc. Would highly recommend.

This product is a must have for travel and work. I ve used it for more than a month every day. It’s rare to find a quality better than a Mac product . I ve used it to charge iPad Pro and MacBook Pro 13. Super fast charging – less than an hour for the iPad – although it may not have been completely discharged. So convenient and not the end if you forget your Mac charger at work or upstairs
The usb are a benefit and work well.
Excellent product and I’ll be getting a few more for the office and home to allow charging where required.

My charger takes up one mains plug but lets me charge four devices at once – saving space. The unit is plugged in now without anything attached and is cold – so I believe that this means it’s drawing no power – apart from a white LED on the end. I used it to charge my iPhone and MacBook 12″ and it dealt with them at full power at the same time. When I travel by train I need a smaller charge to fit into my bag as this is slightly larger, but for some people the dimensions will work well, as it covers multiple devices. You could even charge someone else’s device if needed.

Overall it’s a solid piece of kit and recommended. Bill.

I’m using this to simultaneously power 2 Macbooks and charge a phone. Really good for space-saving and for travelling. It is also much lighter than a single Macbook charger, so much easier to carry around.
