AliExpress alternative to the Novu 120W Gallium Nitride USB-C Charger

Not exactly — the verifier returned a 'functional_equivalent' verdict, not an OEM match. CUKTECH and Novu are distinct brands, and the AD1203P has a specific cylindrical barrel body with a ribbed grip that may differ from Novu's design. The port layout is also different on paper: the CUKTECH unit ships with 1× USB-A plus 2× USB-C, while Novu's exact port configuration could not be confirmed from available reference data. Buy it as a comparable 120W GaN charger, not a drop-in brand replica.

Skip it if you need a confirmed form-factor match to the Novu — the cylindrical barrel shape of the CUKTECH AD1203P means it won't sit the same way in a desktop organiser or travel pouch sized for a flat charger. It is a strong pick for buyers who simply need 120W GaN output in a single wall adapter and don't care about brand or exact silhouette, especially at the $36 price point.

The product is listed as a 120W GaN Fast Charger, and GaN adapters at this wattage typically negotiate PD (USB Power Delivery) across the USB-C ports and QC (Quick Charge) on the USB-A port — but the stored facts do not confirm which specific PD revision or QC version the AD1203P implements. If your device requires PD 3.1 or PPS (Programmable Power Supply) for maximum charge speed, verify the seller's spec sheet before purchasing.

Multi-port GaN chargers standardly derate total output when more than one port is active — for example, a 120W adapter may split to 65W + 45W across two USB-C ports. The stored facts confirm the AD1203P has 2× USB-C plus 1× USB-A but do not detail the per-port power budget in multi-device scenarios. Check the product listing's power-split table if you plan to charge a laptop and a phone at the same time.

A cylindrical barrel body with a ribbed grip can be wider at the plug end than a flat 'credit-card' style charger, which occasionally blocks an adjacent socket on a dual-outlet wall plate or a compact power strip. The stored facts flag the barrel form factor as a key physical difference from typical flat GaN chargers, so measure your outlet clearance — especially if you use a Schuko or UK travel adapter sleeve — before buying.

A 4.67 rating from zero confirmed reviews means the displayed score is either a platform default or drawn from a very small unverified sample — statistically it carries almost no signal at this stage. The low order count (5) suggests this is a recently listed SKU. Treat the rating as a placeholder and instead evaluate the listing by the seller's overall store feedback and whether they publish a detailed power-split specification sheet for the AD1203P.
