Charging stations and hubs come in all shapes and sizes. We've included different options to suit different needs and device charging specifications, so whether you have an iPhone, an Apple Watch, AirPods, a Quick Charge Android phone, a laptop, or a USB-C Android phone; we've got you covered.
These days, more and more devices are shipping with USB-C cables instead of USB-A cables, so we're including charging stations that come with both USB-C ports and USB-A ports if you're still using your older cables.
For Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra users, specifically — unfortunately, none of the charging stations we've encountered support Samsung's 45W fast charging for the Galaxy S20 Ultra. If you're looking to max out your charging speeds with those devices, your best bet is to get Samsung's own charger. Just note that the latest Galaxy S21 series, including the Galaxy S21 Ultra, only support up to 25W charging, which some of the chargers below can achieve.
