Glossary

USB-A ports

The number of USB ports in the device design. Note that this refers only to classical, full-sized ports — the so-called USB-A; the number of USB-C ports, if available, is specified separately (see below).

The number of USB ports (of any type) corresponds to the number of gadgets that can be simultaneously connected to the charger using adapter cables or plugs for the corresponding port. At the same time, it should be noted that not all chargers are capable of providing full power to all charging outputs at once; for more details, see "Charging Current". As for the specific number of ports (USB-A and/or USB-C), nowadays relatively simple chargers with 1 port or 2 ports are the most popular. This is because individual chargers are usually purchased for one or two specific gadgets, and a larger number of charging outputs is comparatively rarely required. Nevertheless, you can easily find models with 3 ports and even more in the market.

USB-C ports

The number of USB-C ports provided in the design of the charger.

USB-C is a relatively new type of connector; it is slightly larger than microUSB and features a reversible design that allows you to insert the plug either way. Despite its compact size, these charging ports can offer quite advanced capabilities — particularly high power delivery and various quick charging technologies. On the other hand, in gadget chargers, this type of port is noticeably less common than full-sized USB (USB-A) ports and comes in smaller quantities — one, rarely two, and as a rarity three USB-C ports. This is because detachable cables typically rely on standard USB ports, which are easier to use with removable cables, and installing such ports in a charger (even a compact one) is not difficult. Therefore, in practice, it only makes sense to specifically look for a device with USB-C if you already have a compatible cable (or a gadget with a suitable plug).
