This isn’t merely another charger for your bag; it’s a charming, robot-inspired companion for your tech, designed to grab attention while simplifying your charging routine.

What truly sets the Uno apart is its distinctive TFT screen.

Packaging and Contents.

The UGREEN Uno Charger 100W arrives in a compact cardboard box with a sleeve, showcasing product images and detailing its specifications.

The box measures 13.5cm x 10.0cm x 7.5cm and weighs 435g.

Inside the box, you’ll find the following:

The UGREEN Uno Charger 100W.

The UGREEN Uno Charger 100W measures approximately 89.3mm x 53.8mm x 61.1mm (with feet attached) and weighs around 283g.

When plugged into a UK specification socket, it protrudes by approximately 63.3mm.

It’s worth noting the charger’s excellent weight distribution.

Unlike some previous, top-heavy models that risked unplugging themselves, the Uno feels secure and stable in the socket.

On the top, you’ll find the three USB-C ports and one USB-A port.

Ports and Power Distribution.

The Uno offers four ports, providing versatile charging for nearly any device.

The table below outlines the capabilities of each port and various charging configurations.

Aside from its impressive charging capabilities, the biggest selling point of the UGREEN Uno Charger 100W is its cute robot face expressions.

Charging with Confidence: The UGREEN Safety System.

While high-speed charging and cute emoji faces are appealing, safety remains paramount, especially with a 100W device.

It’s reassuring to see that UGREEN has not cut any corners here.

They have integrated a robust suite of safety features designed to protect the charger, your valuable devices, and your home.

My experience with UGREEN products has consistently shown a strong emphasis on reliability, and the Uno certainly continues that trend.

At its core, the charger is equipped with advanced components like a PWM chip and a synchronous rectification chip.

For those unfamiliar with the technical jargon, these are vital for ensuring highly efficient power conversion.

This efficiency not only means faster charging but also significantly reduces energy waste as heat.

A cooler charger is an inherently safer charger, as excessive heat can lead to component degradation or potential hazards.

Beyond this core efficiency, the UGREEN Uno Charger 100W boasts an impressive 8-level safety protection system.

This comprehensive suite includes safeguards against common electrical issues such as overvoltage, overcurrent, overload, and short-circuits.

Crucially, it also features overheating protection.

These layers of defence work seamlessly in the background, constantly monitoring the power flow and instantly cutting it off if any anomalies are detected.

For me, knowing these protections are in place provides complete peace of mind, ensuring a safer, cooler, and faster charging experience every time.

Final Verdict: The Functional and Fun Powerhouse.

So, let’s return to our original question: can a charger truly be both functional and fun?

In the case of the UGREEN Uno 100W, the answer is a resounding yes.

UGREEN has successfully merged high-performance charging technology with a design that is genuinely delightful to use.

It confidently tackles the “multi-device woes” by offering a powerful, four-port solution capable of powering everything from a MacBook Pro to your earbuds simultaneously.

The Uno doesn’t just compete on speed and safety; it excels.

The 100W GaN technology ensures rapid and efficient power delivery, while the comprehensive 8-level safety suite provides essential peace of mind.

What truly distinguishes it, however, is its character.

The animated robot face is not a gimmick; it’s a thoughtfully designed feature that makes the mundane act of charging interactive and enjoyable.

This charger is the perfect companion for tech enthusiasts, students, or home-office professionals who appreciate both performance and personality in their gadgets.

It declutters your desk, simplifies your travel bag, and brings a smile to your face.

While the power distribution requires a moment’s familiarisation to fully optimise, the sheer versatility and robust build quality make the UGREEN Uno 100W a standout product and an easy recommendation.
