I prefer magnetic tip to be separate from the charging cable. So I can use different USB C cable as newer versions come out.
I have the Fonken brand and an unbranded 140W 40GB, both bought from Aliexpress and Lazada. Can get cheaper. The Fonken right angle one have to be aware that it supports 20gb only, take note in case you're using it to connect to your laptop/PC via USB C to Displayport out to 1440p/4k monitor. Some sellers don't point this difference out.
Just look for the ones with 24 pin magnetic tip.

Mine states 40gbps on the fonken right angled adapter.

I bought mine from Aliexpress their official store.

Just found this amazing item on AliExpress. Check it out! SG$1.77 37%OFF | FONKEN 24Pins USB 4 Magnetic Adapter Type C 140W for Macbook Pro Air Samsung 40G 20G 8K@60Hz USB C Fast Charge Magnet Converter

But at least theirs indicate the 90 degree adapter is 20GBPS.

The side lable on the adapter itself Shows 140W, without the 40gbps for the 90 degree adapter.

2023-04-06 14:44 | Variation: Elbow Adapter
Only the str adapter is 40gps. The elbow adapter is 20gps. The specs r written on the box. However when i buy at the time, the posted specs shows 40gps for both elbow and str.

But to be honest...if just using to charge phone...it doesn't really matter. Unless you have other usage for it.

I will transfer files with it to/fro my iPad pro and mac, the transfer is very fast but cannot confirm whether it is 20 or 40gbps.

Update:

I connected the iPad Pro to a 4k60 monitor via the angled adapter. And the monitor is running at 4k60. So mine’s good.

Any of the 24 pin tip is compatible with other brand that uses the same tip.

The other type I bought is this one

I got it in a week though.
ordered on 17th May, received on 25th May.

Most of my Aliexpress deliveries are between 7-10 days. I think the estimation is more for other further countries.

Btw, I took a look at ur AliExpress tips. They're different from mine, maybe a cheaper version. The tips are silver, mine are gold tips. Also mine dun write USB 4 on the side of the adapter.

yeah there was 1 i bought this elbow type from Lazada, it comes with gold tips, But this elbow design is protruding and hitting on the HDMI cable preventing me from fixing it to the laptop.

This comes with gold tips though. Honestly no difference in performance between gold or silver tip.

But this is not fonken. Mine looks like what you shared from AliExpress but mine is gold tips and 40gbps. Probably that's why it is more expensive...

Anyway, happy can liao. As u said some may just need the power but not the speed. Most phones nowadays also USB 3.2 only, dun see any USB 4.0 in mass market phones.

yup, that's why i just look for 24 pin ones, as they are interchangeable between the Fonken ones and the other no brand different design ones. I think the 24 pin tip ones will at least be able to do 100W and or 20/40GB with the different adapters that uses same tips. Rather than the ones that have their own round/circle tip or rectangle tip which is not 24pin and you have to get the same cable/adapter. USB 4 is more for if want to use it on pcs/laptops that support them. Another worry I had with the round tip ones when considering which ones to get is that it might not fit the casing.

Yours look more like from this one, rather than the link you shared (the elbow type).

Difference being the one you have is 100W 40GB and the link you shared (and the one i have) is 140W 20GB. No difference using to charge our phone, but prob will have if you're using to charge laptops that can support up to 140W type C charging. Both share the same 24pin tips.
Since there are 240W USB cables now, hopefully they will still use the same 24pin tip design for any future magnetic adapter that supports 240W charging (whether on phones or laptop/devices that uses USB C).

So many types out there. haha....

I dun have devices that required >100W charging (yet). Hopefully there will be none, since we are all aiming for a more environmental-friendly world.

most chargers can charge both together. Whether or not the charger can charge both at their theoretical fastest speed is another thing.
For S23U SFC 2.0 fast charging, just need to look for charger that supports PPS and that you have a supported USB C Cable with E marker chip to get 45W charging.
Not sure about Huawei though.
