Many modern laptops have standardized on USB-C as the port of choice.

  • iPhone 15 Pro review: Coming from iPhone 12 Pro or earlier? This upgrade will wow you

This is great for creating a sleek, simple design, but it can be a bit of a pain for professionals who need different ports.

For example, if you need an HDMI port to add a second display, that means a dongle. Need a USB-A port? That's more dongles.

And soon dongles take over your whole life. And life comes to a crashing halt when you one day forget your dongles.

But what if there was a charger that also gave you additional USB ports and an HDMI port? This is exactly what theBaseus 67W GaN5 charging station offers. 

Also: Need more ports? This tiny, lightweight, premium-quality dock delivers

The setup is as follows -- you connect the main USB-C port to the laptop, which both supply charge (a maximum of 45W) and handle data.

The second USB-C port handles both data and charging up to 20W, and there's a legacy USB-A port for low-speed charging and data needs.

Also: This powerful 140W USB-C charger is smaller than Apple's and has 3 ports

Ports galore.

And since the charger uses gallium nitride technology, it runs efficiently and doesn't overheat like older silicon-based chargers.

The HDMI port connects to a second monitor or projector, depending on your needs.

I've spent time testing this charging station and it's a winner. The 45W of power over the main USB-C port is a bit low for aMacBook Pro , but perfect for aMacBook Air or tablet. The HDMI port is also great for adding a second display, or for casting something like aNintendo Switch to a TV.

Also: This USB-C charger can power 4 devices at once and look good doing it

The offset mains plug is a nice feature, allowing better cable management at your outlets.

Handy offset plug.
