Con
The power output is too low for a lot of popular laptops
If you own a laptop that is bigger than 13 inches, you should definitely check if the wattage of this adapter is high enough for your computer. It wouldn't be able to replace a charger with power output over 45 W, so it won't charge a 13-inch MacBook Pro, for example.

It has a neat and functional design
The all-white adapter with smooth edges is a real eye candy. And its shape makes it easy to wrap the cord around to avoid tangling or breaking.

Con
The charging cable can't be removed
The charging cable is permanently attached to the adapter, which makes it a little less convenient to pack; this also means that if you damage the cord, you will have to replace the whole unit.

Pro
It's very safe to use
This adapter has a variable power output that adjusts automatically to your device, be it a laptop, a tablet, or a smartphone, the likelihood that it will start overheating or fry the battery is very low.

The power output is decent, although not very high
You can replace most original USB-C chargers with the wattage of 45 W or less, which includes primarily 12 and 13-inch laptops. You would be able to charge the 2015 Google Pixel Chromebook and 2016 Razer Blade Stealth at full speed,

It doesn't take up a lot of space in the bag
Although Innergie's PowerGear is not the smallest adapter out there, it's reasonably easy to fit in a bag. And it's not too heavy, around the weight of a billiard ball.

Con
It's a little bulky
The PowerPort is a rather large and bulky USB-C adapter. In terms of weight, it's slightly heavier than a can of soda, which is not always convenient to carry around.

Pro
You can charge 4 other devices besides your laptop
In addition to your laptop, you can use the four additional USB-A ports to power up other devices - smartphones, tablets - all at the same time.

Con
Not suitable for charging larger laptops
If you have a bigger machine that requires higher power output than 60 W, the PowerPort will not be able to replace the original charger. For example, with a 15-inch MacBook Pro, it would at best stop the battery from draining but not increase the charge.

Good power output
The 60 W power output allows this adapter to provide a speedy charge for most 13-inch laptops, as well as for phones and tablets. It is almost on par with Apple's original 61 W charger, powering a 13-inch MacBook Pro (2016) from 0 to 100% in about two hours.

The adapter has great safety features
PowerPort has built-in surge and overheating protection, which is critical given that you can connect five devices at the same time.

Good power delivery
The 60-watt NuPower can quickly charge most popular laptops under 14 inches. It will take around two hours to charge the 13-inch MacBook Pro (2016), only slightly longer than using the original 61 W adapter.

Con
Not suitable for charging larger laptops
You will not be able to use NuPower as a replacement for a more powerful adapter. For example, if you use it on a 15-inch MacBook (2016) instead of the original 87 W charger, it will at best prevent the battery from draining, but not increase the charge.
