Cuktech CP6 charger for $11 fast-charges iPhone 17 Pro to 50% in 20 minutes

Cuktech has unveiled a compact 67W charger, the CP6, designed for Apple devices. Sales in China will begin on August 21, with a starting price of 79 yuan (approximately $11).

The device features two USB-C ports and supports fast charging for iPhones at up to 45W. According to the manufacturer, the iPhone 17 Pro can reach about 50% charge in just 20 minutes. The iPhone 17 Pro Max charges to roughly 62% in 30 minutes, with a peak power of 40W.

The CP6 is also compatible with iPads, MacBooks, and AirPods. For example, the 11-inch iPad Pro (second generation) can receive up to 35W, while the MacBook Air with an M3 chip can draw up to 60W.

The charger is built on gallium nitride (GaN) technology, which allows for a smaller footprint and higher energy efficiency. It monitors temperature at the chip level, performing up to 36,000 measurements per hour. If an abnormal situation is detected, the protection system activates in 0.1 seconds.

The adapter measures just 36 × 36 × 50.5 mm and features a foldable, semi-rubberized plug for easy portability. The minimalist design includes rounded edges and a matte top surface.

With two USB-C ports, the CP6 can charge two devices simultaneously. The system automatically distributes power between the ports based on the connected gadgets. If one device consumes minimal power, the output of the second port can increase from 33W to 45W.
