Parent finding school Chromebook charger in child's backpack UAE

Lost Your Child's School Chromebook Charger? A Quick Guide for UAE Parents

It is Sunday night. School starts tomorrow. And your child's Chromebook charger is missing, maybe left at school or broken in the school bag. Every parent in the UAE has been here.

Here is how to get the right Chromebook charger quickly, without buying the wrong one.

Step 1: Find the Chromebook model

Look at the sticker under the Chromebook or check the logo above the keyboard. Common school Chromebooks in the UAE:

  • Lenovo 100e, 300e, 500e (2nd Gen)
  • Lenovo C330 / S330
  • Dell Chromebook 3100, 3120, 3180
  • HP Chromebook 11 G6 EE, G8

Step 2: Check the charging port

Port What you need
USB-C (small oval) A 45W or 65W USB-C charger. Most new school Chromebooks use this.
Round pin A charger with the exact same tip and voltage. Check the old charger label.

Good news for USB-C: one 65W USB-C charger can charge most USB-C Chromebooks, plus phones and tablets.

Step 3: Get a spare

Our honest advice: buy one charger for the school bag and keep one at home. Chargers get lost at school more than they break.

A typical case

Say your son uses a Lenovo 300e from school. The original charger stopped working in summer and he has been borrowing his sister's. A 65W USB-C charger for AED 34 solves the fight in one day.
