0 This is UGREEN’s first ever collaboration, and what a game to start with! With around 50 million monthly players worldwide, there is no doubt Genshin Impact is popular. And so when the UGREEN x Genshin Impact Series was teased, lots of people were excited. Now I’m not a regular Genshin Impact player, but when these products landed at our door I found myself caught up in that excitement. Who wouldn’t be at the sight of some great tech adorned with Kinich and the Almighty Dragonlord himself, K’uhul Ajaw?!
Step Into a Vast Magical World of Tech
I was highly impressed with the UGREEN Uno Series Collection Stu reviewed back in October last year. In fact we both use the Uno Series Wireless Charger everyday. It’s a brilliant bit of kit. And I can’t forget to mention the incredible thank you package we got from the UGREEN team at the start of the year either. The Nexode Power Bank has been a godsend when travelling. Safe to say I’m a UGREEN fan, so let’s dive into the UGREEN x Genshin Impact Series.
USB-C to USB-C PD Fast Charging Cable
Whilst this is a really good looking USB-C to USB-C cable, it is at the end of the day a cable. And so I don’t have a huge amount to write about it. As we’ve already mentioned this collection is full of K’uhul Ajaw, the Almighty Dragonlord himself. In fact he guards this cable in the form of a nice rubber cable tidy. A fun way to embellish a cable! The cable itself will cost around $10, however there is a launch discount making it just $7.
The USB-C to USB-C PD Fast Charging Cable itself is capable of 100W rapid charging meaning you can charge your iPhone 15 in about 30 minutes. Which is really impressive. I actually put this into our car to keep up the battery on my phone when using it as a sat nav. The difference versus my cheaper generic cable was brilliant. My phone didn’t lose battery even whilst plugged in and I didn’t have to worry about overheating due to the inbuilt E-marker chip. Which is also what offers the speedy charging. The housing around the USB-C connectors felt really durable, I’m not at all worried about this charger breaking at the point of plug in. A problem many of us face!
MagFlow Qi2 Wireless Charger
Unlike many of the other UGREEN chargers, this MagFlow Qi2 Wireless Charger does not have a cute responsive robot face on it. However, it does have some really cool Genshin Impact inspired artwork all over so I think we can forgive them there! As with the cable above, this charger has fast charging capabilities thanks to its Qi12 certified 15W. If you’re wondering what all that really means, it translates to being able to fast charge your iPhone from 0% to 41% in just 30 mins. Really handy when you’re heading out soon and notice your battery is running a bit low!
You can also simultaneously charge your phone and earbuds as the charger flips up. Of course, you can actually use this feature as a stand for your phone too. I did just that when I went away for the weekend and handily packed this charger with me. It served as a great little stand so I could watch videos on my phone whilst laid up in a hotel bed. You may be wary of magnet chargers but I can say never did I worry about my phone falling off, this charger was excellent in terms of grip on my phone. It was definitely secure. No matter what angle I had my phone at, there was no way it was falling off.
The MagFlow Qi2 Wireless Charger will set you back around $60, but again UGREEN are offering a launch discount where you can grab yours for $42!
Nexode Power Bank
Out of all the products in this UGREEN x Genshin Impact Series, this Nexode Fast Charging Power Bank is the one that feels like it has the most Genshin Impact influences. Every side of it has artwork of or influenced by Kinich. I loved looking at it and seeing all the easter eggs for fans. This continued when I first turned the power bank on. Instead of the usual cute UGREEN robot face greeting me I found a little pixel K’uhul Ajaw. Which was a really nice little touch.
As for the technical side, this NEXODE Fast Charging Power Bank is absolutely brilliant. Again as its name suggests it has superfast charging capabilities. The box says 130W but this actually breaks down into 100W for laptops and 30W for phones. This is still impressive as you can charge both your laptop and iPhone simultaneously. That’s some powerful handheld tech! This powerhouse doesn’t stop there though, with a high 20000mAh capacity this can be used for multiple charges. The digital display, when not hijacked by little K’uhul Ajaw, shows battery level, voltage, current and port power. Meaning you always know just how much power everything has. Aside from the artwork that covers this, my favourite thing about this product is that it is genuinely portable. It feels sturdy without being too heavy. As though you can feel the quality, but without it being too much for travelling.
Normally priced at $90, with the launch discount the NEXODE Fast Charging Power Bank is on offer for $70.
Final Thoughts
I don’t know what to write here aside UGREEN has done it again. I am genuinely really impressed by all these products. And this comes from someone who thought a cable was just a cable. How wrong I was! The price points of each item are affordable and in my opinion accessible to a range of people. Which is unusual within the techsphere that’s for sure, let alone for a brand collaboration. If you’re a Genshin Impact fan looking for a little more energy for your traveller’s adventures, go shop this collab on the UGREEN website.
UGREEN are consistently bringing out high-quality useful products and I hope this is the start of many more brand collaborations. I think Sanrio would be a great second collab!
I award the UGREEN x Genshin Impact Series the Thumb Culture Platinum Award.
