In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses the Anker USB 3.2 charger, which is now labeled as 3.2 and claims to support up to 100 watts of power delivery. They mention that using cables with the same rating from Anker costs $20 each, while the charger itself costs between $45 and $60. The technology inside, specifically gallium nitride, allows the small charger to deliver 60 watts of power. The speaker tests the charger’s power delivery using a watt meter and finds that while using different cables, the power draw remains around 50 watts due to efficiency factors.

In this segment of the video, the content creator tests different charging cables and chargers with their laptop and phone. They find that none of the cables or chargers provide the full 60 watts of power as claimed. Even when using a heavier original charger, they still only receive 50 watts. The content creator also tests charging two devices simultaneously, which results in the charger delivering less than 35 watts of power, half of its rated capacity. This outcome is seen as a disappointment.
