Anker’s new 100W charger is almost as small as your AirPods


Anker’s new 100W Nano Charger is about 60 grams lighter than the company’s last ultracompact 100W wall charger, but it has a big tradeoff. To make its smallest 100W power adapter yet, Anker had to sacrifice a couple of USB ports.
The new 100W Nano Charger is available for preorder for $44.99 and ships in mid-September. The new frame is about 26 percent smaller and 30 percent lighter than Anker’s Prime 100W GaN charger, which is the smallest 100W power adapter the company previously sold with two USB-C ports and a single USB-A.
To better put the Nano’s size into perspective, with its prongs folded, it’s only about 17 percent larger than the Apple AirPods Pro 2’s charging case, so the Nano should fit in any pocket you can squeeze AirPods or other earbuds into.
Anker is also including a feature it introduced last month that the company claims will help many of its adapters stay securely plugged into wall outlets. The 100W Nano’s prongs now feature a matte finish to improve their grip when plugged in, but it’s a claim we haven’t tested yet.
The new 100W Anker Nano Charger is definitely one of the smallest power adapters we’ve seen to deliver this much power, but with a single USB-C port, its size may be negated if you don’t want to juggle devices and bring additional adapters to power more than just your laptop.
