By adopting USB-C across its product line, Apple has finally made strides toward universalizing its approach to charging. Sadly, they still fall short, and because the Apple Watch can only be charged wirelessly, that will remain the case. Thankfully, Nomad just introduced its new Nomad 65W AC Power Adapter Apple Watch Edition. Its unique design means one less cable to carry (or forget) the next time you travel.
Until recently, I needed a USB-C cable for my iPad, a Lightning Cable for my iPhone and AirPods, and a wireless charging cable for my Apple Watch. That’s gotten a bit better since the iPhone and AirPods moved to USB-C, but I still need to remember my Apple Watch charging cable when I travel.
Since the Apple Watch can only be charged wirelessly, I must remember to bring its cable or a wireless charger when traveling. If I forget the charging cable, the Apple Watch is useless after a few days — all that changes with Nomad’s latest innovation.
The Nomad 65W AC Power Adapter Apple Watch Edition is a compact wall charger with foldable prongs and two USB-C inputs.
At just 71mm x 54mm x 40mm when used (and just 55mm x 54mm x 40mm with the prongs folded in when not used), the Nomad 65W AC Power Adapter Apple Watch Edition is more powerful and significantly smaller than Apple’s 61W wall adapter.
The Nomad 65W AC Power Adapter Apple Watch Edition also had two charging ports, compared to the single port on Apple’s offering. That alone makes it a far better choice for anyone with more than one device to charge.
Each USB-C power delivers up to 65W of power when only one port is used. Thanks to Nomad’s ProCharge Power Philosophy, when both ports are in use, the top port delivers up to 45W while the bottom port offers a respectable 20W power.
That means this single wall adapter can charge your laptop (it’s enough to power a MacBook Pro and will fast charge a MacBook Air) or, if need be, an iPhone and an iPad simultaneously. Since it is built with GaN technology, devices charge quickly and safely.
In other words, this single wall adapter is the only one you’ll need to charge all your mobile devices.
Well, almost all since, as noted, the Apple Watch still requires a wireless charging solution. That is where this wall adapter is in a class of its own.
You see, on the top of the Nomad 65W AC Power Adapter, the Apple Watch Edition is a wireless charging plate that is compatible with all Apple Watches and offers fast charging on Apple Watch Series 7, 8, 9, Ultra, and Ultra 2.
So, you can now leave the Apple Watch cable at home and charge all your Apple devices on the go with one small wall adapter.
The only caveat is that the wall adapter’s design is incompatible with protective Apple Watch cases or loop-style bands, but that’s a relatively small limitation.
The Nomad 65W AC Power Adapter Apple Watch Edition is, as they explain,
The ultimate 3-in-1 charging solution. With GaN technology packed into its sleek, compact body, this adapter powers two USB-C devices and fast charges your Apple Watch all at the same time.
But there’s more. Since the wireless charging disk sits flat on the top of the wall adapter, it can also charge your AirPods, as long as they have a wireless charging case.
How’s that for an adapter-of-all-trades wall charger???

While the new Nomad 65W AC Power Adapter Apple Watch Edition is excellent for home use, its innovative design means that this wall adapter and two USB-C cables are all you need to keep your entire collection of mobile devices charged no matter where you go.
The Nomad 65W AC Power Adapter Apple Watch Edition is the ideal travel wall adapter. It is small and powerful, with retractable prongs that are protected when not in use. And depending on what is connected, it delivers maximum charging speeds safely.
If you’ve ever left home only to realize you forgot your Apple Watch cable, you’ll agree that its selling price of $100 is a small price for something as powerful, flexible, and “packing-fail proof” as this. Get yours here.
