Much like its predecessor, the Nothing Phone (2) doesn’t come with a charger in the box. Fret not, we’ve listed some of the best fast chargers you can buy to top up your Nothing Phone (2).
Note : The Nothing Phone (2) supports a maximum charging speed of 45W. As such, we’ve aggregated a list of chargers that output at or above 45W.

The official Nothing 45W charger can charge your phone at the fastest speed possible. At the same time, the high wattage is also handy if you wish to charge a laptop, like the MacBook Air. For anyone curious, the adapter supports Quick Charge 4 along with USB-PD.
There’s a slight catch, though. Unlike most third-party chargers, this charger bundles only a single USB-C port, so if you’re looking for broader connectivity, we’d recommend scrolling down for more options.
What We Like
- Official adapter
- Can charge a laptop
What We Don’t Like
- Single USB port
Anker Ace 313 USB-C GaN Charger

- Ports: 1 x USB-C
Anker Ace 313 USB-C GaN Charger

Anker’s Nano series of GaN chargers strike the delicate balance between portability and output wattage. It comes with a pint-sized footprint and high power output. Plus, it packs in foldable prongs as well. The small footprint means it’ll take up very little space on your wall outlet or power strip .
More importantly, the 45W output is sufficient to charge the Nothing Phone (2) at the maximum charging speed. The cherry on top is that Anker’s Ace charger is quite affordable, which makes it a more compelling buy. Additionally, the adapter supports 45W PPS charging, so you should be able to use it with an iPhone too.
What We Like
- Extremely portable
- Foldable prongs
What We Don’t Like
- Gets hot with extended usage

The main advantage of the Belkin charger is its two-port design. While it’s a 45W adapter, the unit’s power output will be split between the two ports if you connect two accessories to the adapter. As such, your Nothing Phone (2) will not charge at top speed.
That said, this adapter is the best pick if you charge your phone and smartwatch overnight. And if you’re in a hurry, simply use one USB-C port. For the uninitiated, the adapter outputs at 25W and 20W when both ports are engaged. Lastly, the adapter is quite compact and doesn’t take up much space in your backpack.
What We Like
- Two USB ports
- Compact design
What We Don’t Like
- The exterior gets dirty with time

If you want two full-fledged USB-C ports without compromising on charging speeds, the UGREEN Nexode charger will serve you well. When using a single port, the charger can output at 45W. If you’re charging two devices simultaneously, the power splits between the two connectors at 30W and 15W.
Even with the power split, the UGREEN Nexode can rapidly charge the Nothing Phone (2). The Nexode also has foldable prongs, making it handy for traveling. It gets slightly hot with extended usage, but that’s the case with most fast-charging adapters.
What We Like
- Two USB-C ports
- Compact with foldable prongs
What We Don’t Like
- Gets warm to the touch
Baseus USB-C Charger With Cable

The Baseus GaN is a versatile power adapter that can charge both your Nothing (2) smartphone and your 16-inch MacBook (or any other compatible laptop). While it has an output of 140W, it can achieved only with a single USB-C port.
So, if you plan on charging your laptop and phone together, the primary USB-C port can still output at 100W, which should suffice for most users. Not to anyone’s surprise, Baseus also bundles a lengthy USB-C cable in the box.
What We Like
- Can fast-charge a powerful laptop
- Included cable in the box
What We Don’t Like
- Build quality isn’t premium
Anker 2-in-1 Hybrid Charger

Lastly, we have the Anker 2-in-1 charger which also doubles as an excellent travel adapter. It is a power bank and a wall adapter, all rolled into one. When plugged in, the device outputs 65W of power. At the same time, the device charges its 10,000mAh built-in battery. Cool, right?
Once charged, you can unplug the Anker charger and use it like a standard power bank. Moreover, the power bank outputs 30W of power and can fast-charge the Nothing Phone (2), though not at full speed. So, if you want full power, you’ll have to plug it into a wall outlet. However, this power adapter for Nothing (2) is slightly expensive.
What We Like
- Charger cum power bank
- Multiple ports
What We Don’t Like
- Expensive
