It’s common to run out of charging ports with your PC, microphone, speakers, monitor light bars, and dozens of other small accessories on your work desk. You can always call your local electrician to install a new switchboard with more ports. But it’s not an ideal solution in the long run. Instead, you can get a power strip with USB slots and create the perfect setup at home.

Whether you want to create the perfect work from home setup or a clutter-free office desk, a good power strip with multiple USB Type-A and USB Type-C slots is a must-have accessory for you. However, you shouldn’t pick any random power strip from Amazon. We have listed the five best power strips with USB Type-A and USB Type-C slots. Let’s check them out.

But first, you can look at the best desk organizers to keep neatly place all your office accessories.

Addtam power strip can be an ideal option for those tight on the budget. It has four AC outlets at the top, two on each side, and other USB ports on the third.

Each AC outlet has 2 inches of space in between, and you shouldn’t have difficulty fitting your large adapters or mobile chargers. The power strip has an easily mountable design to seamlessly install on office desks, TV walls, or college dorms.

It has only one USB Type C port, which might be insufficient if you plan to expand your gadgets portfolio in the future.

Mifaso has a standard power strip design with all the AC outlets at the top and USB ports on the side. You can get five AC outlets, three USB Type-A ports, and a USB Type-C port. It has two keyhole slots to mount the power strip in a desirable place.

The company offers a 5ft-long pure copper extension cord with a fire-resistant casing and a safety switch to automatically turn off all devices to keep them protected from power surge issues. There is only one USB Type C port, and it supports only 5A/3A max charging capacity, which can be slow to charge modern phones and laptops that support USB Type C Power Delivery.

With multiple AC outlets, USB Type-A, and USB Type-C ports, BESFAN can be your ideal one-stop charging station on the desk. USB Type-C PD ports ensure fast charging for your smartphones, and the USB-A 3.0 ports should be sufficient to quick charge your earphones, microphone, smart speaker, and old smartphones.

The BESFAN power strip is small in size and doesn’t offer a braided cable for extra protection. A standard 5W USB Type-C port is slow, and it charges your phone to around 25% in 30 minutes. A 20W USB Type-C PD port (the one BESFAN has) can juice up your smartphone to around 70% in half an hour.

The BESFAN power strip also nails small details like rubber feet for a better grip, a 45-angled design, and an LED indicator to notify whenever it’s powered on.

MKSENSE comes in different colors and variants. You can get one with six outlets, but it doesn’t come with a USB Type-C port. You must upgrade to the higher variant with 12 AC outlets to get a USB Type-C port.

The extended version comes with two color options – Black and White. It has a normal USB Type-C port, though. The charging speed is limited to 5V/3A only. The standard USB Type-A ports don’t offer fast charging either. If you are concerned about charging speeds, prefer BESFAN’s solution above this one.

HOYOKI has a smart open tower design and takes less space on your desk. It has 12 AC outlets, three USB Type-A ports, and a couple of Type-C ports with fast charging capability. The power strip has all the required safety features to protect devices against overloading, short-circuiting, overheating, and power surges. You can get one in black or white color options.

With a dedicated power strip with AC outlets and USB ports, you no longer need to remove existing devices to plug in new ones. You can get any power strip from the list above and charge every smart device simultaneously on the desk.
