One of my favorite product lines Nomad has made over the years is their slim power adapters. They started with their 35W slim charger, which brought fast iPhone charging in this ultra-slim form factor. Then they released their 65W version that added a secondary port and was tailored to customers needing more juice. Now, they have finally launched their 100W slim power adapter for those who need to charge their larger machines on the go. Here is what you need to know. My experience (update from May 22, 2025) The first thing I noticed when I opened the packaging was how light this charger is. For comparison, a 14-inch MacBook Pro comes with a 96W power adapter that weighs 454g (about one pound). The Nomad charger is roughly half the weight, slimmer and more compact overall, has an additional USB-C port to charge a secondary device, and is cheaper. There is a lot to like about this charger. First is the build quality, which feels well-engineered and soft to the touch with zero harsh corners or sides. Since its so thin, it is made to huge the power outlet its connected to so you don’t have to worry about the charger falling off the outlet, which happens with Apple chargers. Since it has dual USB-C, I like how they distinguished the fast charger with a blue port. To clarify, both ports can charge at the full 100W, but when two USB-C cables are connected, the blue port is the designated fast charger and the regular one is the normal charger. This charger is perfect because I can fast-charge a MacBook Air and an iPad Pro simultaneously, so I never have to worry about slow charging speeds. But of course its more than fast enough to charge both 14in and 16in Macbook Pros. From my experience, it has stayed cool to the touch throughout my testing, even when pushing the wattage. Overall, this is a great charger that has no real downsides. I wish a USB-C cable were included in the price, but in this product category, it’s rare that any brand does that. A man can dream. Regardless, this is now my main travel charger! It’s incredible how much power they can fit in a charger that is roughly the size of a deck of cards. They were able to use GaN battery tech to make this possible. This allows the charger to get to 100W of max charging efficiently without overheating or losing efficiency. You get: 100W max output to be able to charge the 16-inch MacBook Pro sufficiently Smart dual charging with each port charging up to 100W (70/30 split when both plugged in) Ultra slim, measuring just 19mm in thickness (again, think a deck of cards) Folding prongs This is officially my new travel charger, which I will bring with me everywhere. I can charge my iPad Pro and iPhone at fast charging speeds, no problem. I will also pair this with my Nomad universal cable to charge my Apple Watch while charging my iPad or iPhone. So bringing those two Nomad products gives me a super small, compact, and portable way to charge all three of my devices, and charge them fast. Its amazing how far battery tech has come and where its going. I love that we can now charge a fully loaded MacBook Pro at PD speeds with a charger that can fit in your pocket. Pricing and availability Nomad’s new 100W slim adapter is available today from their site for $75. As of now, it comes in just one color, carbide. They also have their 65W slim adapter for $65 if you do not need a full 100W, and they also have their 35W charger in the gorgeous white color for just $29. Let me know what you think.
