NENathaniel, I have a 65W usb c charger that I use for basically everything
nan, Yes, but my phone negotiates a slower speed with the laptop charger than its own.
I’ve charged numerous devices with the Nintendo Switch charger too.
jasondj, I’ve been paranoid to do that since I’d heard that the switch charger is non-standard, but that may just be Nintendo propaganda.
DacoTaco, No, this is correct. The switch and adaptor use voltages that arent standard to the usb-pd protocol. However, using the adaptor on your phone should be fine as both need to accept the voltages before it switches
echodot, It doesn’t matter, USB-C won’t use a voltage that’s in excess of the voltage the receiving device can accept, so even if the cable is theoretically capable of a higher voltage it won’t matter. Just like you can’t overcharge your phone battery anymore, the charging will just stop automatically at 100%.
The switch cable won’t carry data which is odd, but it won’t break your phone and you probably don’t need data most of the time anyway.
Anti_Weeb_Penguin, My laptop doesn’t even have an usb type c charger
intensely_human, No because every device I own is made by Apple meaning separate chargers for everything.
Inktvip, I’ve got wireless charging pads/stations/car holder everywhere. Super convenient to just drop your phone down and keep it charged.
My phone’s usb C port got so loose after ~2.5 years that cables would just fall out, so I fully committed to QI charging to preserve whatever is left of that port for things like data transfer.
coolasbreeze, Doing it right now
echodot, My laptop charger won’t charge the phone at anything other than slow speed. So I tend to still use the phone charger.
But the phone charger is used to charge pretty much everything. I could use it to charge the laptop but the cable’s too short to be practical.
Oha, Im charging everything with my Steam Deck’s charger. Having to take care of only one charger makes life a lot easier
sbv, Yup. The phone gets pretty hot which is odd, but it charges quickly. Fwiw it’s a Pixel 4xl.
Tunawithshoes, I do and it’s wonderful. No wall warts just clumping up or trying to figure out where right charger is. All my chargers have same watt and usb c so no matter if I need to charge my phone, laptop, steam deck or headphones it all just fits and charges reasonable fast no matter where in the house I am.
dewritochan, i use my steamdeck charger for the phone and tablet yeah
dipshit, i charge most things with usb-c. for everything else, there’s mastercard.
cccc, I actually own nothing with USB-C charge. The only reason I have a cable is because my microphone came with one.
NorthWestWind, My phone supports 67W charging
Bananablob, 67W charging gang
Kerb, yeah, from time to time.
i dont have any laptop chargers at home,
but at work everyone has usb c dockingstations.if i forgot to charge my earbuds, or if my smartphone is empty, i charge it at one of the unoccupied ones.
