Anker's latest charger is about the size of a "classic" iPhone plug, but don't let its size fool you.
The 20W Anker Nano – Compact size, charges everything faster
It’s no surprise that one of the more well-known mobile charging accessory companies continues to iterate and create new products, but this time around Anker is downsizing. Notably, it has a new 511 (Nano 3) charger that’s relatively small – about the size of a USB-C to wall adapter – but of course, it’s more than just a plug.
Aside from its apparent portability (plus the plug can be folded up to save a bit more space), Anker claims the Nano 3 offers “optimal charging speeds” for virtually any device (including some laptops) as long as they’re USB-C compatible. The Nano 3 can reportedly charge certain (unspecified) iPhone models to 50% capacity in around 30 minutes, and supports Samsung’s Programmable Power Supply (PPS) for super-fast charging.
The Nano 3 offers more than just fast charging, though. It also has safety measures built in. Despite its size, it also uses Anker’s ActiveShield 2.0, which the company says monitors charging temperatures and can automatically adjust output if things get too hot.
