Recently, Luo Yonghao publicly complained on Weibo, pointing out that some merchants registered "120W" as a charger trademark, misleading consumers into thinking it was charging power, triggering heated discussions across the Internet. Luo Yonghao said bluntly: "How did such a rogue (trademark) get successfully registered?"
It is reported that there are currently a large number of chargers marked with "120W super flash charging" on e-commerce platforms at low prices, generally less than 50 yuan.
After purchasing, consumers found that the charging speed was extremely slow, and the measured power was only about 22.5W, which was seriously inconsistent with the publicity.
When faced with doubts, the merchant argued that "120W is a trademark/model number and does not represent the actual power."
What's more, three chargers, 67W, 90W, and 120W, sold in the same store, have exactly the same internal structure. Only the stickers and trademarks are different, but they are sold at different prices.
Such scheming trademarks take advantage of information asymmetry to harvest consumers, register industry-wide power parameters as trademarks, and then openly print them on products.
The State Intellectual Property Office has collectively rejected and declared invalid five charger trademarks containing "120W" in March 2026.
However, market chaos still exists. Some merchants have renamed "120W" models and continue to sell inferior products without 3C certification and with potential safety hazards.
I would also like to remind everyone to use original chargers for electronic products as much as possible. If you need to purchase third-party products, look for big brands.
Check the actual output specifications on the detailed parameter page, such as 20V/6A, 11V/6A and other specific gears, and confirm that the product has 3C certification to avoid low-priced and inferior products from damaging the equipment.
