Upgrading from an old S21 and the slow charging was my biggest headache. Finally got the S26 Ultra and need a brick that actually hits top speeds. Budget is under $50. I'm torn between the official Samsung 45W and the Anker 715. The Anker is smaller but I've heard Samsung phones are picky with PPS protocols. Also looked at a UGREEN Nexode 45W for cheaper. Which one actually hits the max speed consistently without getting hot?

tbh i hate spending money on plastic bricks but you gotta do it right... carrier store wanted $50 but i got the Samsung 45W USB-C Fast Charging Wall Charger for $32 on sale.
- Samsung hits the max PPS speed EVERY time.
- i tried UGREEN Nexode 45W USB C Charger to save ten bucks but it ran hot... im not risking a fire.
- Samsung brick lasts years so the cost per year is basically nothing compared to cheap knockoffs.

This is exactly my thing. The Anker 313 Charger Ace 45W is the correct choice. It supports the 5A PPS protocol for Super Fast Charging 2.0. I tested it against the Spigen ArcStation Pro 45W and the Anker stays 5 degrees cooler during peak power draw. TL;DR: Get the Anker 313 Charger Ace 45W. It hits 45W consistently for under $30.
