When Apple started selling its phones without including the charger in the box, many brands made fun of it. Samsung was one of those who did so, only to follow the same path a few months later, the one that would lead it to Don’t include your chargers in the Galaxy S. This trend has expanded and currently none of the company’s best-selling models in Europe include it.
This can be a disadvantage compared to brands like OPPO, Xiaomi, vivo or Motorola, which include them, in some cases even with more than notable powers. It is not uncommon to see 60 or 120 W chargers from Chinese brands

So Samsung or Apple mobile comparators must already have a charger at home, but this does not always happen. Or maybe you need an extra one so you can use it in another room or take it on a trip. IKEA has one on sale in Europe which is perfect for this.
Two ports and 45 W
The SJÖSS charger has a very minimalist design, as is common in the Swedish firm’s products. It is a very compact device which lets you charge two devices at the same time, thanks to two USB-C ports. This requires having USB-C to USB-C cables, not the ones you often have at home, which are USB-C to USB-A.
These cables are not delivered in the product sales box, but this is understandable when you see the price: 12.99 dollars. This cost is much lower than the cost of official Apple or Samsung chargers. If we wish, we can also buy the cables from IKEA. They are named and they cost 5.99 dollars. They are braided and measure 1.5 meters long.
Despite its price, it can charge a cell phone at 45 W, provided that the smartphone supports this power supply, of course. This is the loading speed if only one socket is used, but If two are used at the same time, each will give 22 W. This USB-C charger is compatible with Power Delivery (PD 3.0), Quick Charge (QC4+) and Programmable Power Supply (PPS).
A more powerful option
If you are looking for a charger for traveling or for home, but we need even more power, an alternative is the Baseus 65W, which has a price of 35.99 dollars although it is currently reduced to 24.96 dollars. This charger has three ports, one USB-A and two USB-C.
It uses GaN technology, which makes it its size is much more compact than that of similar power chargers with other manufacturing technologies. Furthermore, It is capable of charging laptops with its power of 65 W, if we do not connect any other device. It is compatible with technologies PPS, PD3.0. QC 4.0+, SCP and AFC.
