'ZDNET Recommends': What exactly does it mean?
ZDNET's recommendations are based on many hours of testing, research, and comparison shopping. We gather data from the best available sources, including vendor and retailer listings as well as other relevant and independent reviews sites. And we pore over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the products and services we’re assessing.
When you click through from our site to a retailer and buy a product or service, we may earn affiliate commissions. This helps support our work, but does not affect what we cover or how, and it does not affect the price you pay. Neither ZDNET nor the author are compensated for these independent reviews. Indeed, we follow strict guidelines that ensure our editorial content is never influenced by advertisers.
ZDNET's editorial team writes on behalf of you, our reader. Our goal is to deliver the most accurate information and the most knowledgeable advice possible in order to help you make smarter buying decisions on tech gear and a wide array of products and services. Our editors thoroughly review and fact-check every article to ensure that our content meets the highest standards.

This $29 Baseus 65W 4-port charging station is a deal you shouldn't miss
Baseus 65W 4-port charging station
A lot of chargers you buy connect direct to the mains outlet, but there are times when this isn't convenient and people end up using extension cords to bring the charger to a better spot.

But why not buy a charger with its own extension cord?
This is exactly what the Baseus 65W 4-port charging station offers.
What you have here is a 65W USB charger that features two USB-C ports and two USB-A ports. Using a single USB-C port, this charger can output 65W, enough to keep a modern laptop topped up and running, and this can fully charge a 13-inch MacBook Pro in less than two hours.
However, if you have multiple devices, you can use all four ports and still get a decent output from this charger.
And all you take up is one power outlet.

This charger also uses gallium nitride (GaN) transistor technology, as opposed to the older silicon tech, and this upgrade not only allows the charger to be smaller than traditional 65W chargers but it also runs cooler and uses less power.
A win-win!
And finally, this charger comes attached to a 5-foot AC cord, which means that you're not tied to having this charger stuck on a wall somewhere, and can choose a spot for it on a desk, nightstand, or just about anywhere.
This is a great charger, and in this Black Friday deal, you can pick it up for an unbeatable price.
