Why Most Chargers Only Give Your S25 Ultra 25W
The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra supports 45W Super Fast Charging 2.0, but there's a catch that trips up most buyers: standard USB-C PD chargers cap at 25W on Samsung phones, regardless of their wattage rating.
The PPS Requirement
Samsung requires PPS (Programmable Power Supply) for 45W charging. PPS is an extension of USB Power Delivery that allows the charger to adjust voltage in tiny 20mV steps between 3.3V and 21V. Without PPS, Samsung's charge controller falls back to the standard 25W PD profile.

How to Check If Your Charger Supports PPS
Check Your Phone
Settings > Battery > Charging. If it says "Super Fast Charging 2.0", your charger has PPS.
Check the Charger
Look for "PPS" or "Programmable Power Supply" in the specs. Standard "PD" alone is not enough.
Quick Test
Plug in and check if the notification says "Super Fast Charging" (25W) or "Super Fast Charging 2.0" (45W).
Samsung Galaxy Charging Speeds Compared
Every Samsung Galaxy phone needs PPS to unlock its maximum wired charging speed.

Best Chargers for Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra — Top 3 Picks
Every charger below is PPS-verified — they all trigger Super Fast Charging 2.0 on the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra and S24 Ultra.
SmartGear 65W GaN Dual USB-C Charger
£34.98- Verified 45W PPS — triggers Samsung Super Fast Charging 2.0
- GaN III — 50% smaller than Samsung's own 45W charger
- Dual USB-C — charge S25 Ultra + Galaxy Buds simultaneously
- 65W total — also charges MacBook Air at full speed
- Foldable UK 3-pin plug — travel-friendly
- CE/UKCA certified with overcurrent & overheat protection
The SmartGear 65W GaN is our top pick for the S25 Ultra. It delivers verified 45W PPS, so you get genuine Super Fast Charging 2.0 — not the 25W you get from most chargers. The dual-port design means you can charge your phone and laptop from a single charger, and the GaN III chip keeps it pocket-sized.
UGREEN Nexode 65W GaN Charger
£29.99- PPS support — unlocks Samsung 45W Super Fast Charging
- 3 ports — charge phone, tablet & earbuds at once
- GaN III — compact body with UK 3-pin plug
- Intelligent power distribution across all ports
- Samsung, iPhone, MacBook compatible
- UKCA / CE certified
The UGREEN Nexode 65W is the best value 3-port option. It supports PPS for full 45W Samsung charging and adds a USB-A port for legacy devices. Slightly cheaper than the SmartGear but lacks the foldable plug.
SmartGear 65W Travel Charger
£19.99- PPS support — full 45W Samsung Super Fast Charging
- International plug adapters — UK, EU, US, AU included
- Dual USB-C ports for phone + second device
- Lightest 65W charger we've tested — 120g
- Perfect for Samsung users who travel internationally
- CE/UKCA certified
At just £19.99, the SmartGear Travel Charger is a steal. It delivers 45W PPS for Samsung Super Fast Charging and comes with international plug adapters. Ideal if you travel frequently or want a spare charger for the office.
What to Look for in a Samsung S25 Ultra Charger
PPS Support (Essential)
Without PPS, your charger maxes out at 25W on Samsung phones. PPS is not the same as PD — look for "PPS" or "Programmable Power Supply" explicitly in the charger specs. All three chargers we recommend above include PPS.
45W or Higher Wattage
The S25 Ultra draws up to 45W. A 65W charger with PPS is ideal — it delivers 45W to the phone and has headroom for a second port. A 25W PPS charger works but charges slower than the phone's maximum.
GaN Technology
GaN (Gallium Nitride) chargers are up to 40% smaller than silicon equivalents. A 65W GaN charger is roughly the size of Samsung's 25W charger. Look for GaN III for the latest generation.
UK 3-Pin Plug
Make sure the charger has a proper UK 3-pin plug — not a EU adapter with a converter. All our picks come with native UK plugs. For travel, the SmartGear Travel Charger includes international adapters.

Why Not Just Buy from Amazon?
Amazon UK is flooded with chargers from unknown sellers. Many are grey-market imports without proper UKCA certification — meaning they haven't been independently tested for UK mains safety. Some lack the correct 56kΩ pull-up resistor, risking damage to your phone or laptop. When something goes wrong, the 3rd-party seller has often disappeared.
Amazon Marketplace Risks
- No UK plug: Grey-market imports with EU/US plugs — need adapter
- Uncertified: No UKCA mark — unknown safety testing standards
- Mixed bins: Commingled inventory mixes genuine and counterfeit stock
- No recourse: 3rd-party sellers vanish after complaints or warranty claims
- Fake reviews: Fake reviews inflate ratings — hard to trust 4.5★ scores
- FBA ≠ safe: "Fulfilled by Amazon" doesn't mean Amazon tested it
SmartGear Outlet Guarantee
- CE/UKCA certified: Every product independently tested for UK electrical safety
- UK warehouse: Ships from our UK warehouse — correct UK 3-pin plug included
- Free delivery: Free delivery to any UK address, every order, no minimum
- 30-day returns: 30-day no-questions-asked returns to our UK address
- UK support: Real UK support team — email, phone, or live chat
- No middleman: Same products, better price — we cut out the Amazon middleman
The bottom line: Amazon is great for books and batteries. For mains-powered electronics that plug into your wall, buy from a UK specialist who stands behind every product.
