Chargers for Microsoft Surface

There are primarily two types of chargers available for Microsoft Surface:

Surface Connect charger: This is Microsoft’s proprietary charger designed specifically for Surface devices. The chargers generally have a magnetic connector that attaches to the Surface device for charging.

USB-C charger: Newer Surface devices also support USB-C charging. This means you can use a reliable third-party USB-C charger such as the Anker 747 Charger (GaNPrime 150W) as your Windows Surface charger.

Yes. There are many third-party USB-C chargers you can use if your Surface device supports charging via USB-C. For example, Anker 747 Charger (GaNPrime 150W) comes with 3 USB-C ports and supports charging your Microsoft Surface devices at up to 100W.

Yes, you can charge your Microsoft Surface with a Type C charger or a 20000mAh power bank with USB-C ports if your Surface device has a USB-C port and supports USB-C charging. However, it is essential to ensure that the Type-C charger you use meets the power requirements and specifications of your specific Surface model. And, it is recommended to use certified chargers from reputable brands like Anker for best performance and safety.

Yes, you can use a 65W charger instead of a 44W charger for your Surface laptop. The laptop will only draw as much power as it needs due to its built-in power management system, so using a higher-wattage charger will not damage your laptop. In fact, it may actually charge your laptop faster given the higher wattage.

No, not all Microsoft Surface devices use the same charger. Different Surface devices need different chargers.
·Power Requirement: You need to check the different power requirements of your Surface devices. There are three types of power for Surface chargers: 24W, 36W, and 60W.
·Voltage Compatibility: Pay attention to the voltage output of your devices.
·Interface Type: The Surface devices use different types of interfaces, including Surface Connect surface and Type-C interface.
The Anker Prime Charger (250W, 6-Port, GaNPrime) is a versatile solution that delivers ultra-fast, multi-device charging, including support for Surface devices with USB-C. If you need extra power on the go, pair it with a power bank for seamless charging anytime, anywhere.

Microsoft Surface devices support both Surface Connect chargers (original port) and USB-C PD chargers. For full-speed performance, high-end models like the Surface Laptop Studio 2 require up to 100W via USB-C. For a compact, reliable alternative, Anker’s GaN chargers—such as the Anker Prime Charger (100W, 3 Ports, GaN). It delivers ultra-fast Surface charging, powers three devices simultaneously, and ensures safety in a compact design with ActiveShield 2.0 technology.

Yes, there is another way to charge a Microsoft Surface. If your Surface device uses a USB-C port, you can charge it using power banks with USB-C ports. We can also use a third-party Type-C charger like Anker Prime 747 Charger (GaNPrime 150W) as your Microsoft Surface charger. Make sure the chargers are compatible with the power requirements and Surface model.

Modern Surface devices (2017+) can bypass the original charger using a high-wattage USB-C PD power bank like the Anker 25K 165W Laptop Power Bank—a portable powerhouse that houses three 100W USB-C ports and a 25,000mAh capacity. It charges a Surface Laptop at full speed (100W) while juicing up a phone, tablet, and even another laptop simultaneously. With industrial-grade retractable cables (survives 20,000+ bends) and 100W self-recharging (30% in 20 minutes), it’s the ultimate travel companion for multi-device users needing power anywhere.

You have three ways to know the model of your Surface Pro.
- Identification of the Device: Some devices sign the model on their back so you can check it.
- Windows Settings: You can open the system information from the “starting list” and see the model information.
- Surface Application: Users can download the application from “Microsoft Store” and check the device information.

Sorry, Target doesn’t sell Microsoft Surface charger. If you want to buy chargers from a third party, the premium brand Anker is suggested. Anker supplies quality electronic accessories and friendly customer service. For example, the Anker 735 Charger (GaNPrime 65W) supplies fast and safe charging with ActiveShield 2.0 technology. You can charge your phone, notebook, and earbuds simultaneously because it has 3 charging ports.

Yes, if your Surface Laptop has a USB-C port. This feature became standard on 2019+ models (Laptop 3/4/5, Laptop Go).
A solid pick is multi-port GaN chargers—they’re much smaller than traditional chargers yet pack enough power. For example, the Anker Prime Charger (100W, 3 Ports, GaN). It can efficiently charge your Surface Laptop along with other devices via its USB-C port.

If you don't have a charger for your laptop, you can opt for alternative charging methods, such as USB-C charging devices or power banks. Simply connect your laptop to a power source using a USB-C cable. Additionally, a 20,000mAh power bank with USB-C ports can provide a portable charging solution. For a high-power option, the Anker 747 Charger (GaNPrime 150W) features three USB-C ports and supports charging Microsoft Surface devices at up to 100W.

Yes, you can use a 65W charger instead of a 120W charger, but it may cause slow charging or drain batteries during heavy tasks like gaming. For balanced performance, the Anker Prime 100W GaN Charger delivers faster speeds (50% charge in 30 minutes for a MacBook Pro) and charges three devices at once.
