Summary of ChargerLAB
That's an overview of the top ten products in this list. Now, let's analyze the sales of chargers in Japan in detail.
In terms of performance, only one charger does not support fast charging, while three have a power rating of 65W. Furthermore, all of the listed chargers have at least one USB-A port, which suggests that Japanese consumers still have many relatively older electronic devices. When you realize that many industries in Japan are still widely using floppy disks, you'll understand what I'm talking about.
In terms of prices, the cheapest charger is ¥699, while the most expensive one is ¥6,589. It's worth noting that all the products on this list are sold as standalone chargers and do not include cables.
From a brand perspective, we see three chargers from familiar brands Anker and UGREEN, with the rest being Japanese domestic brands. Anker's performance in this ranking isn't as strong as in the USB cable sales ranking last time.
That concludes our analysis of the Amazon charger ranking in Japan. See you next time.
