Over the years we have reviewed several NewerTech devices and they have typically gotten very favorable reviews. Their accessories tend to be well made with thoughtful designs that actually perform. So today we have one of their newer products, the NewerTech NuPower 60W USB-C power adapter. This unit is primarily designed to be a USB C charger that includes an additional USB Type A port to charge all devices.



The NuPower 60W USB-C power adapter is a relatively small device, measuring about 2” by 4” by 1”. In this small footprint you get a charger that can quickly charge your newer USB C devices and your legacy USB devices as well. Before we get into the review to see if this device lives up to the NewerTech name, let’s take a look at the official features and specifications as taken from the official product page on the NewerTech website...
