AI-generated summary
For £30.13 ex-VAT, this ASUS 65W USB‑C charger is a pretty sensible buy if you’re trying to cover “real office life” with one brick. It’s especially useful if you’ve got a USB‑C laptop that charges via the port and you want something smaller than the original charger, plus a spare for the bag, meeting room, or home office. In my experience, the sweet spot for these adapters is day-to-day reliability and convenience—less “where’s the plug?” and fewer chargers cluttering desks.
That said, I wouldn’t buy it if you’re expecting it to replace a whole fleet of different OEM chargers with different proprietary requirements. Also, if your laptop needs higher wattage than this, you’ll end up with slow charging or it will simply not keep up under load (which defeats the point). If you already know your device takes USB‑C charging comfortably around this power level, it’s good value. If you’re not sure, check your laptop’s charging requirements first—don’t guess based on “USB‑C” alone.
