Belkin's first flat-design GaN Wall Charger offers next-level charging with a design that's 21% smaller* than stock 20W chargers. It brings high-speed USB-C Power Delivery charging for smartphones and tablets in a small and convenient size. Gallium nitride (GaN) is a high-performance alternative to the traditional silicon used in charging devices. GaN transistors produce less heat, allowing components to be closer together, which means you get a much smaller charger with all the power of a big one. For powering up at home or on the go, our GaN Wall Charger provides up to 20W of fast charging for USB-C PD-enabled devices. Fast charge an iPhone 8 or later from 0–50% in 30 minutes† or Google Pixel from 0–50% in 37 minutes.†† Built-in protection keeps your devices safe from overcurrent and overvoltage damage.
*Based on internal measurements when compared to stock 20W smartphone chargers.
† USB-C PD technology charges iPhone 8 or later from 0–50% in 30 minutes when paired with a USB-C cable with Lightning connector (not included).
†† Based on charge times for Google Pixel 3XL (37 minutes). Charge time varies with environmental factors; actual results will vary. Requires Power Delivery-enabled model.

I mean $13 for 20w charger sounds expensive in 2022.

The Belkin adapter is intended to be a more compact travel charger targeted for phones. This means it adds folding power prongs and fits into a wall-hugging 7.7 cm x 3.26 cm x 1.5 cm case (presumably making it easy to slip in your pocket or a bag). As a third party charger, this device is also noteworthy in that it is listed with Intertek [intertekconnect.com] and USB-IF [usb.org]. However, the Belkin model also only supports 5V and 9V modes (meaning it is optimized for charging phones, and not necessarily laptops and/or tablets) and does not support PPS (meaning it may charge slower than possible despite the wattage rating depending upon the device.
The 30W Google power charger is a great all-around option for phones/tablets/laptops (though second, perhaps, to some comparable Samsung options) whereas the 20W Belkin charger is probably most ideal for a phone that only supports traditional power delivery and maxes out at around 20W support (such as an iPhone 13).
Considering that the retail price of the Google power charger is around $25 (so nearly twice the price of the Belkin in this listing) I'd say this isn't a steal for the Belkin but is still a decent value for money.
Good luck!
