Anker Prime 3‑in‑1 Desk Charger Adds Qi2 up to 25W and App‑Controlled Power
Anker is rolling out a new Prime series desk charging station for iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods. The accessory supports the latest Qi2 standard with wireless charging speeds up to 25W (device‑dependent) and lets users adjust charging behavior in the companion app with three selectable modes.
Qi2 introduces a MagSafe‑style magnetic power profile to improve alignment and efficiency across compatible phones. Anker’s all‑in‑one design targets a cleaner desk setup while giving users more control over speed, heat, and battery friendliness. Exact pricing and regional availability may vary as the Prime lineup launches.
- Standard: Qi2 wireless charging, up to 25W with supported devices.
- Controls: App‑based power management with three modes (e.g., fastest vs. cooler/quieter).
- Devices: Built for iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods (3‑in‑1 desk form factor).
- Use case: Reduce cable clutter with reliable magnetic alignment and consolidated charging.
Why it matters: Qi2 aims to standardize magnet‑aligned fast wireless charging beyond a single ecosystem, making mixed‑brand setups simpler. App‑tunable charging gives users more control over thermals and battery health.
