What are the differences between GaN II and GaNPrime?

The GaN II chargers are not the same as the GaN Prime chargers. The main differences are as below:

1. Total output:

 

For the GaN II chargers, the total output is ≤100W. For the GaNPrime chargers, the total output is between 65W-150W.

 

2. Active shield:

 

The GaN Prime chargers support ActiveShield 2.0. The temperature is measured 35 times per second. Assuming 8 hours of sleep per night, the temperature is measured more than 1 million times at night.

 

The GaN II chargers don't have ActiveShield 2.0 technology. Some of them support ActiveShield 1.0. The temperature is measured 20 times per second. Assuming 8 hours of sleep per night, the temperature is measured over 570 thousand times per night.

 

3. Charging technology:

 

GaN Prime chargers support PowerlQ 4.0, which is Anker's exclusive compatibility technology. It automatically detects the power requirements of your laptop, tablets, or phone and dynamically distributes output between them in real-time to deliver faster charging to multiple devices. The GaN II chargers support PowerlQ 3.0, they will not dynamically distribute output between the devices in real time.
