Nokia chargers really aren’t that interesting, after all, it only charges your phone. But I thought the new Nokia AC-15X deserved a quick mention due to it’s quirky new design.
Ultra Compact Nokia AC15x
Over the last few years Nokia Chargers have gotten smaller, lighter and more energy efficient. The AC15X is their smallest and lightest one yet and features a unique sliding third pin.
Small, Smaller, Tiny
The ‘Earth’ pin on Nokia chargers isn’t really needed and has been made from plastic for as long as I can remember, but every charger has to have to – if nothing else to keep it secure in the socket. This normally means that chargers are square or rectangular and take up quite a bit of space in your bag when you’re travelling.
The new sliding pin retracts into the base of the charger when it’s not in use – this allows the body of the charger to be around half the size of a standard Nokia AC4x Mains Charger and a lot lighter.
New Nokia AC-15x Travel Charger
AC-15X Specifications:
- 27 x 50 x 75.7 mm
- Weighs approx 37g
- Cable Length 1800mm
- Nokia 2mm charging Tip
The new Nokia AC15x Mains charger is shipping now in the latest sim free Nokia phones such as the 6700 Slide and is also available to pre-order separately.
We’re hoping so, Nokia generally stick to the same charger style across all handsets, and this style is much more in line with their american and Eu chargers.
Having said that, their latest micro usb handsets are still shipping with the AC-5 sized chargers.
Will there be a Micro USB version of this too?
