Zens announces a new collaboration with Lenovo as new EU regulations come into effect from 28 April 2026, requiring all laptops sold in the EU to support USB-C charging and allowing manufacturers to ship devices without a power adapter in the box. While this change is intended to reduce e-waste, it also shifts the responsibility for reliable, high-performance charging to consumers.
USB-C may be universal in name, but not all chargers deliver the same results. Underpowered or low-quality charging solutions can limit laptop performance, drain batteries during use and lead to frustration, returns and support issues. Zens and Lenovo will address this challenge with a future-ready solution that combines performance and simplicity while supporting sustainability regulation in the EU.
The collaboration introduces a single-cable solution that powers a Lenovo laptop at full performance while wirelessly charging a second device, such as a smartphone or earbuds. One cable replaces multiple chargers, reduces cable clutter and gives consumers a cleaner, more intuitive setup from day one.
At the heart of the collaboration is the Zens Charging Cable Pro 2, a Lenovo-recommended USB-C charging accessory optimised for Lenovo laptops and Lenovo USB-C power adapters. Supporting high-power USB-C charging from 65W up to 140W, the cable is designed for modern home offices and professional workspaces.
“The new EU rules make simplicity more important than ever,” says Johan Plasmans, CEO of Zens. We combine full-power laptop charging with wireless charging for a second device in a single cable. This reduces clutter and accessories while lowering environmental impact, without compromising performance.
Beyond home use, the collaboration also supports modern workspaces, where simplicity, flexibility and desk efficiency matter just as much. With one USB-C connection for laptop charging and integrated wireless charging for everyday devices, the solution helps create cleaner desks, reduces the need for multiple adapters and supports a more organised working environment. For IT teams, office managers and facility professionals, it offers a practical way to combine performance, convenience and a more future-ready office setup.
The Zens Charging Cable Pro 2 is now available as a Lenovo accessory for both professional and customer users via lenovo.com and zens.tech.

The Zens Magnetic Nightstand Charger Copper is the latest edition to their charger line-up which looks and feels better than the previous model but lacks in features however if aesthetics are your thing this charger is for you.
This comes with a White and Copper finish and looks really premium and will look well at any office desk or bedside locker in my opinion but looks this time around has removed something which is not a huge deal for me anyway this also depends on how many products you own as some may not have them.
This looks identical to the previous model but has the color change but it lacks a charger for your Apple watch or other compatible watches so this is something to keep in mind. But you can pick up one here that does and the Zens Nightcharger Pro 2 copper edition
Asides that it is still an excellent charge that can charge compatible devices and not just Apple devices and has the premium look no matter where it is placed.
For me looks wins given there is no watch charger and I have adopted wireless chargers along time ago and this one will sit nicely in my living room f0or all to see when they arrive and it pops out with its great looks.

The Zens Office Charger Pro 3 is the ultimate charging solution for iPhone 12 and up users who prioritize functionality, quality, and value. You can charge three devices simultaneously with Qi2 technology and not only this it also means less clutter and cables in your work area which is vital.
This also provides faster charging and also allows you to use this as another way of consuming media without having to hold your phone you could have your emails open or social for example on the device.
The positions are all fixed here which might be a slight caveat meaning the phone will only sit in one position but it seems ok to me but would have preferred to have more angle adjustment.
Given this charges three devices at one go it is a vital piece of kit to have it is portable however cant be taken apart which would have been great for travel but it is a desk charger after all but would like to see a portable travel version of this next time around but not knocking it at all this again is solid well built and looks clean sitting on your desk or even your bedside locker.
3 year warranty• Charges 3 devices wirelessly at the same time
• New Qi2 technology supports 15W wireless magnetic charging
• Supports 5W Apple Watch Fast Charge
• The magnetic connection ensures a perfect positioning
The Zens Nightstand Charger Pro 2 is Made from high-grade zinc/alloy, this charger provides a dedicated spot for your Qi2 or MagSafe compatible devices ensuring peace of mind without tangled cables. Now if like me and you own many devices all the time this is ideal to be on your bedside locker.
The build quality is top notch here and looks well placed anywhere if you like you can even have it beside your work area at home or in the office as it is portable.
There is rubber footing underneath which makes it stay where it is put and there is no problem removing or taking your tech off it especially the phone as some can take the unit with you when removing the phone due to their plastic builds.
The charger does allow you charge devices with cases on as tested in my review and this again is another handy features as some do not due to certain cases, this can also be used to consume media on your device without having to hold it and again handy on your bedside locker which is what I tend to do every morning and evening.
This is an ideal personal tech product to have at home or again a gift for someone who is into their tech and has the compatible products which most of us have today especially if in the Apple ecosystem.
