CES 2026: Anker Unveils New Qi2 Charger, Nano Power Strip, and Docking Station

Anker today announced several new charging options that are set to start rolling out to customers in January. There are three products in the Nano family, along with a new Anker multi-device charging station designed for the iPhone and Apple Watch.

The $150 Anker Prime Wireless Charging Station offers 25W Qi2 fast charging for supported iPhone models, matching the speeds delivered through MagSafe. It can charge an iPhone 17 to 80 percent in 55 minutes. There is an included airflow cooling system that's meant to keep temperatures low to make charging more efficient, and the charger has a foldable design for travel. It is able to charge an iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods.

Anker says its new $40 45W Nano Charger is able to identify an iPhone model and then provide the appropriate amount of power for fast charging while protecting battery health. The special charging reduces phone battery temperature by nine degrees compared to other 45W chargers. It has a built-in smart display and a 180-degree foldable plug for travel and to ensure the screen always faces you regardless of plug orientation.

The $70 Anker Nano Power Strip features six AC outlets, two USB-A ports, and two USB-C ports, with 70W max available from either of the USB-C ports. Anker says that the power strip is meant to keep desks clutter-free thanks to the hidden AC outlets that tuck under a desk.

Anker's $150 Nano Docking Station has a built-in removable hub so some of the functionality is available while on the go. It supports three displays with up to a 4K resolution over DisplayPort and HDMI, and it offers 100W charging and 10Gb/s data transfer.

The 45W nano charger might be a good one. The display is an added bonus. The orange color option is very good and goes very well with the Orange 17 Pro/Pro Max. Might consider it the next time I plan on buying a power adapter.

The prime wireless charging station looks good but it is quite similar to the ones from Belkin. The anker one has active cooling but that’s all. Pretty hefty price in comparison to the Belkin.
My thoughts exactly. Belkin, ESR, and UGREEN all have one of these for $50 less. I was waiting to see Anker’s, but the 50% price premium over its competition is not worth it.

I still don’t understand $150 for a charger. I had one that I paid $15 for that worked perfectly fine until Apple killed the watch charger portion with WatchOS 26.
