If you're juggling an iPhone, a Samsung Galaxy, and a Pixel in the same household or office, carrying three separate chargers is unnecessary — a good multi-port GaN charger handles all three at once.
Why One Charger Can Work for All Three Brands
iPhone, Samsung, and Pixel all charge via USB-C using the same USB Power Delivery standard at the base level. The differences (PPS for Pixel, Super Fast Charging 2.0 for Samsung) are about reaching each brand's *maximum* speed — but a capable multi-port PD charger can still fast-charge all three, just potentially not all at their absolute peak simultaneously.
What to Look For
- Multiple ports with independent power delivery — so charging three devices doesn't starve any one of them
- PPS support — needed for full-speed Pixel charging
- High total wattage — the combined output across all ports matters more than any single port's max rating
Genuine Multi-Port Option
AvaNext stocks the Anker Prime 160W 3-Port USB-C GaN Charger — built to comfortably fast-charge an iPhone, Samsung, and Pixel simultaneously, with a smart display showing real-time power distribution across ports.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will charging three devices at once slow all of them down?
With a high-total-wattage charger like the Anker Prime 160W, all three can charge at a reasonably fast speed simultaneously — though each individual port's maximum speed may be slightly capped when all ports are active at once.
Is a multi-port charger worth it over three separate chargers?
Yes, for most households — it saves desk/outlet space and travel bulk, with only a minor tradeoff in absolute peak speed when all ports are used at the same time.
