UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger is available at Mascom International for KSh 2,200, brand new and sealed, with a UK 3-pin plug that fits Kenyan wall sockets directly. The UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger has one USB-C port that delivers up to 45W through USB Power Delivery, and it also supports Samsung Super Fast Charging 2.0. GaN stands for gallium nitride, a chip material that lets the body stay small, at roughly 65 by 36 by 38 millimetres. You can collect one from our shop at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, or order it for delivery.
Built for sales teams, university students and anyone who lives out of one bag across Kenya, the UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger replaces the slow cube that came with an older phone. The usual problem is simple: a phone sits on charge for hours and still leaves the house half full. With 45W on tap, a Samsung Galaxy S Ultra that supports Super Fast Charging 2.0 draws its full speed, while an iPhone, a Pixel or a USB-C tablet takes as much as it can accept. Students at Strathmore and Kenyatta University use one plug for phone and tablet between lectures.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell unbranded fast chargers with no maker on the label, Mascom International stocks the UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger as a named brand with a written warranty. Customers across Nairobi tell us they switch to the UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger once a cheap cube starts running hot or charging slowly. It also suits a desk in Westlands or Upper Hill where only one socket is free. Come test it with your own phone at our Kimathi Street store, or order on WhatsApp and pay on arrival anywhere in Kenya.
Common Questions About the UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger
How much is the UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger in Kenya?
The UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger costs KSh 2,200 brand new at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That price covers the charger unit with its UK 3-pin plug and a 6-month Mascom warranty. A USB-C cable is not part of this item, so pair it with one you already own or pick one up in store. Delivery is pay-on-arrival across all 47 counties. It sits KSh 600 above the 30W UGREEN X513 and KSh 1,300 below the three-port UGREEN X614 45W GaN Charger.
Should I buy the UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger or the 30W UGREEN X513?
Pick the UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger if you own a Samsung Galaxy S Ultra or a USB-C laptop, because both can use more than 30W. The UGREEN X513 tops out at 30W from one USB-C port and costs KSh 1,600 at Mascom International. For an older iPhone, a budget Android or a pair of earbuds, 30W is already more than the device accepts, so the extra KSh 600 buys little. Buyers who plan to keep a charger through two or three phone upgrades usually take the 45W unit for headroom.
Does the UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger fit Kenyan sockets and cope with KPLC power cuts?
Yes, the UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger has the UK 3-pin plug that matches standard Kenyan wall sockets, so no adapter is needed. UGREEN builds it to monitor voltage, current and temperature, and it guards against surges, overheating and short circuits. That matters when KPLC power returns after an outage with a spike. In homes and offices with frequent cuts, a surge-protected extension board adds a second layer, and the fire-resistant shell is reassuring on a crowded desk.
Which phones charge at full speed on the UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger?
Samsung Galaxy S Ultra models that support Super Fast Charging 2.0 reach their full 45W rate on the UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger when paired with a 5A USB-C cable. Other USB-C Power Delivery phones, including recent iPhones, Google Pixel and many Oppo and Vivo models, charge at whatever PD rate they accept. Phones built around their own maker's private fast-charge system may run at standard PD speed rather than their boxed-charger speed. Send us your exact model on WhatsApp before buying.
Can the UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger charge a laptop?
The UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger can charge many USB-C laptops that accept Power Delivery input, such as MacBook Air and a range of Chromebooks and ultrabooks. A laptop that shipped with a 65W or larger adapter will still charge, only more slowly, and it may hold steady rather than climb during heavy work like video editing. Lawyers and accountants who mostly type, browse and run spreadsheets often find 45W enough. Laptops with round barrel-pin chargers will not work with it at all.
Is the UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger small enough for daily travel?
At roughly 65 by 36 by 38 millimetres, the UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger fits in a jacket pocket or the front pouch of a laptop bag. GaN parts waste less energy as heat than older silicon designs, which is why a 45W charger can be this compact. On a matatu commute from Rongai or a boda boda run across town, that size means one less bulky item. Journalists and field engineers who charge wherever they find a free socket value carrying a single small brick.
Who should buy the UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger and who should skip it?
Buy the UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger if you charge one device at a time and want a fast, compact brick for a phone, tablet or light laptop. Skip it if you need to charge two or three gadgets at once from one socket; the UGREEN X614 45W GaN Charger at KSh 3,500 adds extra outputs. Heavy laptop users with 65W machines are better served by the UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S, priced at KSh 3,800 at Mascom International.
What USB-C cable should I use with the UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger?
A 3A USB-C to USB-C cable carries the full 45W under standard Power Delivery, which covers most phones, tablets and laptops. Samsung's 45W Super Fast Charging 2.0 is the exception and needs a 5A e-marked cable. The UGREEN X524 45W GaN Charger is sold here as the charger unit alone, so a good cable you already own works fine. Older iPhones need a USB-C to Lightning cable instead. Thin unbranded cables often cap the speed, so a rated cable from Mascom International is worth it.
Technical Specifications
Core Charging Function
- Up to 45W output from one USB-C port — enough for a fast phone top-up or steady charging of a light laptop.
- USB Power Delivery (PD) support — the shared USB-C fast-charging standard used by iPhone, Pixel, iPad and most USB-C laptops.
- Samsung Super Fast Charging 2.0 (SFC 2.0) support — lets compatible Galaxy S Ultra phones charge at their top 45W rate.
- GaN (gallium nitride) circuitry — a chip material that handles high power in a smaller body than older silicon chargers.
- Single-port design — all 45W goes to one device, so power is never split between two gadgets on the same brick.
- Automatic power negotiation — charger and device agree on a safe speed, so an earbud case only draws the little it asks for.
Device Compatibility
- Android phones with USB-C — Samsung, Google Pixel, Oppo, Vivo, Tecno and Infinix models charge through PD or standard USB-C rates.
- iPhone 15 and newer — the USB-C cable from the iPhone box plugs straight in for fast charging.
- iPhone 14 and earlier — works through a USB-C to Lightning cable, sold separately at Mascom International.
- iPad and Android tablets with USB-C — the 45W ceiling leaves room for tablets that accept more than a basic adapter gives.
- USB-C laptops with PD input — MacBook Air, many Chromebooks and ultrabooks charge, more slowly if they shipped with bigger adapters.
- Smartwatches, earbuds and power banks with USB-C input — they draw only the low current they need from the same port.
Build and Size
- Body of about 65 x 36 x 38 mm — small enough for a shirt pocket or the side pocket of a backpack.
- UK 3-pin plug (Type G) — fits the same wall sockets and extension boards used in homes and offices here.
- PC (polycarbonate) housing — a hard plastic shell that resists cracking from the knocks of daily bag travel.
- Fire-resistant material grade — the shell is made to resist catching flame if an internal fault ever occurs.
- Compact GaN layout — the brick takes one socket on an extension board and leaves the neighbouring slots usable.
- Colour range from UGREEN — sold in black, white and grey, with the in-stock colour confirmed on WhatsApp.
Safety and Protection
- Voltage monitoring — the charger checks its output voltage continuously and corrects it if it drifts.
- Current monitoring — limits the amps flowing to the cable so a weak cable or port is not overloaded.
- Temperature monitoring — tracks internal heat and throttles output before the charger or phone gets too hot.
- Surge protection — shields the charger and connected device from voltage spikes when mains power returns after a blackout.
- Short-circuit protection — cuts power if a damaged cable or wet port creates a direct fault.
- Overheating protection — a second safeguard alongside temperature tracking, useful in hot rooms without air conditioning.
Inclusions
- The charger unit with UK 3-pin plug — the 45W brick itself, brand new in sealed UGREEN retail packaging.
- No cable in this item — reuse your existing USB-C cable or buy a matched one at the counter.
- 6-month Mascom International warranty — covers manufacturing defects on the charger under normal use.
- Cable matching advice — staff in store will pair a 3A or 5A cable with your phone so you get the speed you paid for.
- Pay-on-arrival delivery — the charger can be checked at your door before you hand over any money.
