This is still the smallest 65w charger out there. You pay more for it and 65w vs 60w vs other chargers but it is noticeably smaller than even the other compact GaN chargers.
If you're ok with a larger size, Best Buy open box generally has a bunch for pretty cheap:
I have the Insignia 40w, 45w, 100w, and 140w and they all do SFC (25w PPS) charging on my Samsung except for the 140w (spec sheet has PPS listed but there's actually two different versions of it; the cable bundle one doesn't have PPS, which is what I have. The other does).

so these open box cheap Best buy ones will have the PPS? I've heard the Google charger is the one that has the best one.
Yeah I checked through all of them.
If you have the newer Pixels, you'll have to check if the chargers to see if they have 21v PPS since most only do up to 20v. It's an uncommon profile Google chose, some Ankers and other chargers also support it though.
My Anker 717 GAN 140W died just over 60 days after I bought it from BestBuy.
They won't accept the return. And, Anker is trying to reject my claim because I don't have an ankerdirect order number. I sent them a BestBuy receipt and they're saying go back to them.

scum move but just order from amazon and just return it as broken
Used this for my work charger since the recessed plugs in the office don't fit the standard macbook plug. Worked great. Heavier than you expect, probably due to a large heatsink which is good. No issue staying plugged into the wall despite its weight. Upgraded to the Anker Prime 67w since I needed extra ports but no complaints with this one.

Prioritize. Neither nor if you're charging 5 devices. Isn't that obvious? The 715 nano weighs 116 g. It's an older Anker model with higher reliability ratings than many of the newer models. Excellent choice for your Macbook. Few laptops benefit from PPS but 715 has 21v PPS if needed. Three years ago the 715 sold for $60. $25 is an excellent price.
The 45w Anker Ace II weighs 90 g. It's a phone charger optimized for Samsung.users who insist on the inclusion of a 4 amp 11V output mode for 45w SFC charging. That adds to the weight and is not required by your devices. Since you already own the A2643 you can use a USB tester to determine if any of your Apple devices are utilizing PPS. If you are thinking about a Multi-port then be aware that PPS often goes away when a second port is used especially on the under 100w adapters so using several single port PPS adapters has a benefit.
Best for me which doesn't apply to the power user is reducing battery wear by using the adapter which achieves a full charge in under 70 minutes without generating excessive heat in the battery.

If you're ok with a larger size, Best Buy open box generally has a bunch for pretty cheap:
This has PPS (under Features->Quick Start Guide) and decently compact: https://www.bestbuy.com/product/i...ition=fair
Single port version https://www.bestbuy.com/product/i...ition=good
Larger 70w unit with PPS: https://www.bestbuy.com/product/i...ition=good
Lower end lineup on clearance, also has PPS (check the product photos):

Should I keep that one or get this instead? I travel at least once a month for work with a 14" Macbook Pro, an iPad Pro and iPad Mini Pro, an iPhone and a Fold 6. I already have a 90W Ravpower (with 2 USB C Ports - Big and heavy) and a 61W Ravpower (1 USB C PD Port). Neither seem to have PPS.
