Belkin Launches Retractable 75W Car Charger with Integrated USB-C Cable
Belkin unveiledโ theโ BoostCharge retractable Car Charger 75Wโ at a recent โขindustry event, offering a solution to tangled cables and limited โฃcharging options for drivers. The device, slated for release in โthe US this October, features a 75cm (approximately 2.5 feet) โคretractable USB-C cable capable of delivering 60W of power, alongside a USB-A port forโค broader device compatibility.
The resurgenceโ of in-car tech and the increasing power demands of modern smartphones and other devices haveโข created a need for convenient and efficient charging solutions.โ Belkin’sโค new charger โaims to address this by combining fast charging capabilities with a space-saving,โ retractable design. Priced at $29.99, the BoostCharge Retractable Car Charger 75W seeks to provide a premium experience without aโ premium price tag, actively optimizing power delivery when multiple devices are connected.
Concerns surrounding the durability of retractable โขcables are common, but initial impressions of Belkin’s offering are positive. Testers noted the cable’s smooth extension and โretraction, lacking โฃthe typical “clunkiness” often associated with cheaper retractable mechanisms. while long-term reliability remains to be seen,โ the initial feel suggests a higher quality buildโค than many competing products.
The BoostCharge โRetractable Car Charger 75W will be available โfor purchase in the United States in October for $29.99.
