Anker has expanded its Nano line with a compact family of chargers and powerbanks designed for travel and everyday use. The new range brings a high-capacity 165W laptop powerbank plus several pocket-friendly Nano models that aim to simplify charging for phones, laptops and in-car setups.
Power and portability: the 165W Laptop Powerbank
The headline product, the Anker Laptop Powerbank (A1695), houses a 25,000mAh battery and a combined 165W output across four ports. That delivers real multi-device convenience: you can charge up to four gadgets at once, and each USB-C port can supply up to 100W when needed. Anker even built two integrated USB-C cables — a short 30cm cable for tight spaces and a 70cm retractable cable that adjusts to your setup.
Impressive speed numbers back up the specs. Anker claims the powerbank can bring a MacBook Air (M3) to roughly 50% in about 21 minutes, and it can recharge an iPhone 16 multiple times. A TFT color display shows output, temperature and estimated charging time; pulling the retractable cable triggers animated icons on that screen, a small but satisfying UX touch. The unit is also flight-approved, making it useful for road warriors and frequent flyers.
Small form, big features: Nano series for pocket charging
Not everyone needs a 25,000mAh brick. For lighter carry, Anker launched three Nano variants:
- Nano Retractable Powerbank (A1638) — A 10,000mAh pack with 45W fast charging and PPS 2.0 support. It includes a 70cm retractable cable, three ports (two USB-C and one USB-A) and a TFT display for real-time status. Anker says it can juice an iPhone 16 Pro to 50% in about 27 minutes.
- Nano Wireless Powerbank (A1665) — A 15W Qi2 wireless pad plus 20W wired input/output in a slim credit-card-sized shell (102 × 70.6 × 8.6 mm). It also has active temperature control to keep the surface below 40°C while charging.
- Car and wall Nano chargers — The Nano Retractable Car Charger (A2738) offers 75W dual-port output with a neat retractable cable for clutter-free in-car charging. The Nano 45W Charger (B2692) adds PowerIQ 3.0, PPS and Samsung Super-Fast Charging 2.0, with daily temperature checks for safety.
Design details and user touches
Across the new lineup Anker focused on convenience: retractable cables to reduce tangles, compact dimensions for pocketability, and small displays on some models to keep you informed without guessing when a device will be ready. Colors vary by model — the A1638 comes in Black, White, Blue and Pink — so users can pick a style to match their gear.
