"Those tiny 20W chargers work fine for a single phone but they crumble under the weight of modern device ecosystems where laptops, tablets, and phones all need power simultaneously. The Anker Prime Charger delivers a massive 160W across three USB-C ports while staying roughly the size of an AirPods Pro case, and solves the cable chaos and outlet shortage that plagues anyone who travels with multiple devices."
"Gallium Nitride technology allows this charger to deliver 1.35W per cubic centimeter of power density. This figure explains how Anker fits 160W into a size that easily fits in your hand: Traditional silicon-based chargers would have to be three times larger to provide the same power. The compact design lets you slip this charger into a side pocket of your laptop bag without the bulk of carrying multiple chargers."
"The 140W single-port output provides steady power without reducing speed: This means your laptop charges quickly even when other devices are plugged into the other ports. This feature is crucial during work sessions when you need your MacBook Pro charged up fast before a meeting or flight. Anker claims you can charge a 16-inch MacBook Pro from empty to 50 percent in just 25 minutes."
Anker's Prime Charger supplies up to 160W across three USB-C ports from a compact GaN design roughly the size of an AirPods Pro case, replacing multiple chargers for travelers. Gallium Nitride enables 1.35W per cubic centimeter power density, allowing the small form factor; silicon chargers would need to be three times larger for the same output. Any single port can deliver up to 140W for fast laptop charging, with dynamic power allocation among connected devices. Anker claims a 16-inch MacBook Pro can reach 50% in 25 minutes. AnkerSense View shows real-time wattage for each port. An early Black Friday price cuts $149 to $109.
