Anker earlier this month announced four new products at CES 2026. The new lineup, which includes everything from emoji-displaying wall chargers to docking stations with removable hubs, aims to reduce charging friction “through higher efficiency and more intuitive user experiences” for both frequent travelers and desk-bound professionals.
Anker Nano Charger
Anker Prime Wireless Charging Station
Anker
The Anker Nano Charger is one of the most unique chargers that I’ve seen. It combines personality with functionality.
The 45W compact wall charger is rated to charge your iPhone 17 Pro from zero to 50% in under 20 minutes. It features a “Care Mode” that is said to keep your phone temperature 9 degrees Fahrenheit cooler than “other 45W chargers.” I’ll have to test to find how that works, but it’s a promising feature that is enabled by tapping on the charger’s screen.

The Nano Charger also has a travel-friendly design. There are times when a horizontal protrusion isn’t ideal on a charger.
For such times, Anker has added a 180-degree foldable design. The new accessory can be plugged in at a 90-degree angle as well as 180 degrees to keep the display always legible to you. Its screen provides real-time charging status (wattage, temperature, and phone battery level) and offers interactive feedback. You can purchase the Anker Nano Charger starting in late January 2026 for $40.
Prime Wireless Charging Station
The Prime Wireless Charging Station is another travel-friendly launch from Anker at CES 2026. It is a 3-in-1 charger for your iPhone (at Qi2 25W), Apple Watch, and AirPods. There’s an airflow cooling system that keeps temperatures in check and provides efficient charging to the three products simultaneously. It folds into a small, phone-like form factor and will sell for $150 sometime in Q1 2026.
Nano Power Strip
Anker also announced two desk-centric products. First, there’s a Nano Power Strip that offers a dual-zone 10-in-1 design to keep your desk clutter-free, with hidden outlets and high-speed USB-C charging. You get two USB-C ports (70W max each), two USB-A ports, and six AC outlets with 1500J surge protection. It will go on sale for $70 in late January 2026.
13-in-1 Nano Docking Station
Last but not least, Anker has a new 13-in-1 Nano Docking Station with a 6-in-1 built-in removable hub. You can use the full dock for a triple 4K monitor setup at home and then simply pop out the hub for “grab-and-go” expansion during travel. It supports 100W upstream charging and 10 Gbps data transfers. This is one of the rare CES products that is available for purchase.
You can get it for $150.
