Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source is a car charger with a difference. It’s bristling with ports and retractable cables, and it even swivels and rotates to fit in with your needs.
The cables extend out to 2.6 feet, making them perfect for the passenger prince or princess with a lot of stuff to charge!

Baseus has built and tested the retraction system to handle over 10,000 smooth pulls and retractions, and in my testing, it has proven tough — there’s nothing to worry about when it comes to quality.
As for power, one cable delivers up to 67W and the other up to 33W. That’s enough power to top up a laptop and keep a smartphone going, and you can do this without having to remember to bring any cables.

As for charging protocols, the charger supports all the big ones — PD, QC, SCP — so you can be assured that your gadgets are charging at the fastest possible rate.
The whole unit can swivel and rotate through 180-degree vertical rotation and 270-degree horizontal rotation so as to present the cables at the best possible angle for whatever device you have connected.
The PrimeTrip VR2 Max rotates and swivels to offer the best orientation.

And to keep the cable ends from flapping about in the breeze, they are magnetically held down when not in use. This is a really nice touch, and the sort of attention to detail that I’ve come to expect from Baseus.
This charger is a bit on the large side.

One drawback is that, thanks to all the swiveling and ports, the PrimeTrip VR2 Max is a bit on the large side, and it might be a bit too big for some cars depending on the location of the 12V port. That said, I’ve tested it in a number of vehicles, and not had a problem.
