The front has four USB-C sockets, and two USB-A ones. This is similar to a figure-of-8 socket but with an extra pin for Earth. The rear side has a cloverleaf power socket for the supplied cable.

The edges are a darker shade, and look almost black in some lights, but still have a hint of silver.

The top of it is a dark-ish silvery-grey, with a small UGREEN logo and tagline. Looks-wise, it has a low-key design which I personally like.

This is getting on for twice the weight of Apple’s 96W power brick – but then this thing does deliver twice the power, and six times the number of ports. OWC stands behind what it sells, so if you buy one and it fails, at least you'll have a warranty that means something.Normally I’d start with the look, but the most notable first impression in this case is the feel – or, more precisely, the weight! This thing weighs 1.14 pounds, which is something of a shock when you pick it up, as the compact device looks like it should weigh about half that. They're no better than Apple adapters, but they cost less: The adapter below has been offered by many vendors under various brand names, and I've known several people who bought them. If you bought a new Apple adapter and took the same care of it that you took of your first one, it would easily outlast your computer's useful life. That simply doesn't happen to adapters that aren't abused. The fact that your old one lasted five years indicates that you took good care of it, unlike most of the people complaining that their new Apple adapters fried after six weeks or the like. Furthermore, the older Apple adapters aren't as good as the current one. I don't suppose you tried to invoke the warranty on your junk adapter?Ī 45W adapter will take longer to charge your 15' machine, will get hotter while doing so, and won't supply enough power to run the machine and charge the battery simultaneously, at least not under a heavy load.
