Ugreen has let us know that there was a production delay with the Nexode Pro 65W Slim.
The charger should be available for purchase by the end of June or early July 2024.
The unit reviewed here was preproduction and the chirping or buzzing sounds may be attributable to that.

The Nexode Pro 65W Ultra-Slim (model X753) is no exception here.
From left to right, theres a USB-A port, followed by two USB-C connections.
The former feature is Ugreens take on GaN engineering, which ditches traditional silicone conductors for a crystalline material.
A space-saving wall charger that will quickly become a staple of your home office or travel bag, the Ugreen Nexode Pro 65W Ultra-Slim has a few quirks, but I think it’s a pretty great device overall.
As for the Thermal Guard protection, this is Ugreens take on temperature monitoring.
If the Nexode Pro 65W gets too warm, the charger should be disabled.
Charging: Is There a Cricket in Here?

As for charging configurations, the amount of wattage dispersed will depend on how many ports are in use.
This latter USB-C port is best used for charging up hardware like tablets, laptops, or power banks.
When charging via USB-A and the first USB-C, both ports top out at 15W.

With both USB-C ports in use, the left output is capped at 20W and the right at 45W.
But what was more concerning was a high-pitched chirping noise emitted by the charger.
Whats even weirder is this issue didn’t happen all the time.

But when it was chirping hour, the noise never ceased.
Should You Buy the Ugreen Nexode Pro 65W Wall Charger?
That being said, Id err on the side of caution when using that 65W USB-C port.
This product will be available at the links in January 2024.
