Today I’ll be writing about the UGREEN DigiNest Cube. This is my first review for UGREEN, a large international consumer electronics brand, with millions of worldwide customers, so I’m honoured to be approached by them and asked to review.
Today’s offering is a 65W 7-in-1 power strip which features 2x PD 3.0 fast charge USB-C ports (20V/3.25A 65W max), 2x USB-A ports (9V/2A 18W) and 3x AC (2990W 13A) outlets. You’re able to use all 7 outlets at once too.
By innovatively utilising the GaN III chip, the UGREEN DigiNest Cube offers up to 95% conversion rate in a more compact size and better heat dissipation with Thermal Guard technology.
The UGREEN DigiNest Cube has been designed for high power devices such as MacBook Air M2/M1, iPhone 14 Pro Max/14 Pro/14 Plus/13/13 Mini/13 Pro/12/11/SE 2022; iPad Pro/Air/mini, AirPods 3/2, Pro, iWatch 8/7, Watch SE, Galaxy S23/S22/S22 Ultra/S21 FE, S20/A72/A71/A53/A52/M43, Tab A8/A7/S8; Redmi Note 11/10, Poco F3/X3/M3, Pixel 7/6/5, Steam Deck, Switch and many more.
Is this power cube any good? Time to test it out!
Packaging and Contents.
The UGREEN DigiNest Cube comes packaged in a white/black box which shows product images and specifications printed on it. The box measures 18.5cm x 12.5cm x 9.0cm and weighs 725G.
Inside the box you’ll get the following: 1x Power Cube, 1x User Guide. UGREEN DigiNest Cube.
The UGREEN DigiNest Cube measures 8.0cm x 8.0cm x 8.0cm and weighs 375G. The UK approved fused plug and cable measures 1.8cm in length.
On the back you’ll see a power rocker switch, this controls all 7 power outlets.
On the front you’ll see 2x USB-C ports and 2x USB-A ports, there is a power light indicator located on the right after the USB-A port, it’s a faint white LED light, it’s there, although looks pixelated and faint.
On the bottom you’ll see two rubber strips, these provide plenty of grip on a smooth surface. They’re very impressive and really do grip well.
Testing.
Guess it’s time to crack out the AVHzY CT-2 USB Power Meter Load Tester. I started with the two USB-A outlets, the advertised power rating is 5V/3A 9V/2A 12V/1.5A 18W Max, and yep, that’s what I was getting. Again, with the two USB-C ports pretty much the same as the advertised USB-C1/C2: 5V/3A 9V/3A 12V/3A 15V/3A 20V/3.25A 65W Max. My Samsung Galaxy S20 FE even registered as super-fast charger connected when plugged in.
I ramped up as much as I could using the USB tester and the UGREEN DigiNest Cube hung on and provided power.
Safety is paramount to the UGREEN DigiNest Cube. You get a PC-V0 fireproof rated outer shell. Internal safety shutters in each outlet which prevents the insertion of objects. Charge with peace of mind with overload, overcurrent, and ground protection, along with many other security features.
The main advantages to the UGREEN DigiNest Cube is the compact way to power your office desk with power to all your office equipment.

Conclusion.
The UGREEN DigiNest Cube is very impressive. It feels well-built and built with safety in mind too. I particularly love the 7-in-1 charging system, load it up and all your high-powered devices get charged at the same time.
The power indicator light is a bit poopy in comparison with the product overall, which is excellent.
Would I recommend the UGREEN DigiNest Cube? Yes, also don’t let the high price tag put you off too, you’re paying for a high-quality product which can power just about anything, quickly and safely.
