Earlier this week, we published a guide rounding up a variety of last-minute Father’s Day gifts for those celebrating Father’s Day. However, if you need a Hail Mary and your dad is the nostalgic type with a soft spot for all things Apple, then Shaji Retro 67 Buy it directly from Sharge on Amazon right now for the all-time low price of $39 ($30 off).
In February, my colleague Sean Hollister wrote a personal ode to Sharge’s three-port USB-C PD and PPS charger (and for good reason). The palm-sized Retro 67 measures 2.2 x 1.5 x 1.5 inches (relatively small for the features it offers) and can pump out 67 watts from a single UL-certified port, or 45 watts through the main port power, while delivering 20 watts through the remaining two ports. This is enough to charge multiple devices (cell phones, headphones, handheld devices, etc.) or lightweight laptops (such as the latest MacBook Air). If you’re not in a hurry, it can even use the main port to slowly charge more powerful machines like a MacBook Pro.
Wattage is only part of the appeal, though. The Retro 67 has a retro feel because its design is derived from the original Macintosh. This travel-friendly charger also features foldable prongs and a built-in dot matrix display that shows how much power your gadget is receiving at any given moment. In fact, it showcases the iconic “digital rain” pattern matrix Just a plus when not in use.
