UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 3,800, brand new and sealed. It carries two USB-C ports and one USB-A port sharing 65W of output, enough to charge a USB-C laptop, a phone and a pair of earbuds from one wall socket. The UK 3-pin plug folds flat into the body, so the pins will not scratch a screen or tear a bag lining. Nexode is UGREEN's family of GaN chargers, and the UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger comes in a plain gray finish. Collect it from our shop at the Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Designed for sales teams, field engineers, journalists and NGO field staff, the UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger handles the working day that does not stay at one desk. Carrying a laptop adapter, a phone charger and an earbud cable adds weight and tangles. This one brick replaces all three. A sales rep moving between Upper Hill and Industrial Area can recharge in a client's boardroom from one socket. A field officer heading to Nakuru or Eldoret packs one charger instead of a bag of them. Because the pins fold, the UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger sits flat in a laptop sleeve beside the machine it powers.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that sell chargers loose and untested, Mascom International hands over the UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger sealed, from a brand that publishes its ratings. Buyers throughout Kenya report that the folding plug is the reason they pick this model over its desk-bound siblings. It shares price and ports with the UGREEN CD361 65W Uno Charger, and we explain the honest difference below. Walk into the shop to hold both side by side, or order with pay-on-arrival delivery to your door.
Common Questions About the UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger
What is the UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger price in Kenya?
The UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger sells for KSh 3,800 brand new at Mascom International, Nairobi CBD. The price includes the 6-month warranty described below and pay-on-arrival delivery terms, so you pay when the box reaches you. It is sold as the charger alone, so use your own USB-C cable or add one to your order. For KSh 200 more, the UGREEN X615 65W Retractable GaN Charger builds a USB-C cable into the body at KSh 4,000.
Should I choose the UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger or the UGREEN CD361 65W Uno Charger?
Pick the UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger if you travel with it, and the UGREEN CD361 65W Uno Charger if it stays at a desk. Both cost KSh 3,800 and both have two USB-C ports and one USB-A port. The X553 folds its pins flat and has a plain gray body. The Uno model keeps fixed pins but adds an LED face that shows when charging ends, and UGREEN publishes its full per-port power split. Total output is 65W on both, so the deciding factor is how you use it.
Does the UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger survive daily matatu and boda boda commutes in a bag?
The UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger is built for the bag, with UK pins that fold into the body when unplugged. Folded pins cannot snag a laptop screen, poke through a sleeve or bend when a bag is squeezed on a packed matatu. The plug is the UK 3-pin type used across Kenya, so it fits office, hotel and home sockets from Mombasa to Kisumu without an adapter. Keep the ports out of dust on boda boda rides by storing it in an inner pocket, and blow out debris before plugging in.
Can the UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger charge a laptop and a phone at the same time?
Yes, the UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger charges a USB-C laptop and a phone together, sharing 65W between them. When one device is connected, it gets the full output its port allows. When more devices join, the charger splits power among them, so each charges a little slower than it would alone. For the quickest laptop charge before a meeting, unplug the extra devices for a while. Laptops with round barrel connectors cannot use it, and they need their original adapter.
Why pay KSh 3,800 for the UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger instead of a cheap unbranded charger?
The UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger comes from a brand that states its output, while many unbranded chargers in Nairobi print figures nobody can check. A charger that claims 65W but cannot hold it will overheat or charge a laptop slowly. A branded charger also comes with a warranty and a shop to return to if KPLC power returns with a surge. A laptop worth tens of thousands of shillings deserves a charger you can trust, and the price gap is small against the cost of a damaged battery or port.
What does Nexode S mean, and how does the UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger fit the range?
Nexode is UGREEN's name for its GaN chargers, and the UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger is the 65W, three-port member of the Nexode S line. GaN, short for gallium nitride, lets the charger stay small for its power compared with older silicon designs. Mascom International also stocks the UGREEN X565 Nexode S 100W four-port charger at KSh 4,500. The X565 suits two-laptop setups, while the X553 stays the lighter pick for one laptop, a phone and earbuds.
Who should buy the UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger, and who should skip it?
The UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger is right for people who carry a USB-C laptop and a phone between offices, towns or client sites. Journalists, consultants and field engineers get the most from it. Skip it if you only charge a phone; the UGREEN X524 45W charger at KSh 2,200 is cheaper and smaller. Skip it if you hate carrying cables; the X615 adds a built-in retractable cable for KSh 200 more. Skip it too if you power a gaming laptop, which needs far more than 65W.
Can the UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger power an iPad, a tablet or a handheld console?
The UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger charges iPads, Android tablets and USB-C handheld consoles through its USB-C ports. Each device draws only the power it was built to accept, so a tablet will not be overloaded by the 65W rating. That makes it handy for mobile gamers who play on a tablet or handheld and want one charger for the console, the phone and the controller. The USB-A port covers older accessories, such as a controller or a power bank with a USB-A cable.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Output
- Total output of 65W shared across three ports, enough to charge one USB-C laptop with a phone and earbuds alongside.
- Two USB-C ports for laptops, tablets and modern phones, using the oval plug most new devices now share.
- One USB-A port for older phones, power banks and accessory cables with the flat rectangular plug.
- Power is divided automatically when several devices connect, so each device receives a share without any setting to change.
- A single device on one USB-C port charges faster than the same device sharing the charger with two others.
Compatibility
- USB-C laptops rated at 65W or less, such as the MacBook Air and many HP EliteBook and Lenovo ThinkPad business models.
- USB-C iPhones and Samsung Galaxy, Tecno, Infinix and Oppo phones, each drawing only the power it accepts.
- iPads, Android tablets and USB-C handheld consoles charge without a separate brick, which suits travel with one bag.
- Older iPhones need a USB-C to Lightning cable, and older Android phones can use a USB-A cable.
- Not suitable for laptops with round barrel connectors or gaming laptops that need well above 65W to charge.
Build and Plug
- GaN, short for gallium nitride, is a chip material that keeps the charger small next to older chargers of the same output.
- UK 3-pin plug fits Kenyan wall sockets, hotel rooms and extension boards directly, with no adapter.
- Pins fold flat into the body, so the charger slips into a laptop sleeve without scratching a screen.
- Plain gray finish with no lights or display, which suits a hotel room or bedroom where a glowing screen would distract.
- Part of UGREEN's Nexode S line, the same family as the X565 Nexode S 100W four-port charger.
Inclusions and Use Notes
- The sealed box holds the charger, sold at Mascom International without a cable, so plan on your own USB-C cable.
- A common 3A USB-C cable tops out at 60W, so a 5A cable rated at 100W unlocks the full 65W for a laptop.
- Covered by a 6-month Mascom International warranty for manufacturing defects, handled at the Nairobi CBD service desk.
- Pay-on-arrival delivery across all 47 counties, so you inspect the sealed box before you pay.
- Same price and port layout as the UGREEN CD361 65W Uno Charger; the folding plug is the main practical difference.
Package Contents
Inside the sealed box you get the UGREEN X553 65W Nexode S GaN Charger, ready to plug into any Kenyan socket. Mascom International sells it as the charger alone, which keeps the price at KSh 3,800 and lets you keep using cables you already trust. If you plan to charge a laptop at full speed, add a 5A USB-C cable rated at 100W. The box reaches you unopened, so the seal you break is the first one.
