Retractable cables are the next big thing—and UGREEN is leading the charge! In this video, I unbox and test the UGREEN Nexode 20,000mAh 165W power bank and the Nexode 100W GaN wall charger, both with built-in retractable USB-C cables. The power bank packs a 20,000mAh capacity, a 65cm retractable cable tested for over 25,000 uses, 165W triple-device charging, and a smart TFT display showing real-time power stats. Perfect for keeping your phone, iPad, and laptop topped up on the go. The 100W GaN charger has a 75cm retractable USB-C cable, 2 more USB-C ports, and a USB-A port—powering up to 4 devices at once. It supports Samsung 45W Super Fast Charging 2.0, charges a MacBook Pro to 43% in 30 minutes, and comes with 8-layer safety protection. If you’re tired of tangled or forgotten cables, these could be the neat, travel-ready charging solutions you’ve been waiting for.

About This Video

My go-to power bank for months has been my Anker 165W 25,000mAh brick, and honestly the reason I love it is simple: the retractable cable. It’s made me fall in love with anything that has a built-in cable that doesn’t tangle and doesn’t get forgotten. So when I spotted UGREEN launching a whole Nexode range with retractable USB‑C cables, I bought the 100W GaN wall charger and the 20,000mAh 165W power bank, unboxed them, and put them through the kind of real-world testing I actually care about. The 100W charger is a proper “grab-and-go” brick with a 75cm retractable USB‑C cable plus extra ports (2x USB‑C and 1x USB‑A), so you can charge up to four devices—just remember they share that 100W. My only real gripe is the prongs don’t fold, so it’s not as travel-neat as some alternatives, but the ergonomics, styling, and that cable make it a winner for my bag. Then there’s the Nexode 20,000mAh 165W power bank with a 65cm retractable cable and a smart TFT display that shows real-time wattage and even a little charging face. It’ll push 100W from one USB‑C port, handle 65W on the retractable lead, and it’s been tested for 10,000+ bends. For me, it’s a super convenient, travel-ready setup—tidy, fast, and genuinely practical.
