Anker's 45W Nano Charger with Smart Display Now Available, Featuring Compact Design and Battery Care Mode

Anker has officially launched its Nano 45W USB-C charger with integrated smart display, bringing CES 2026 innovation to consumers. The compact 45W adapter delivers iPhone 17 Pro charging speeds of up to 50% in 20 minutes while supporting iPads and MacBook Airs, all packaged in a form factor smaller than most 30W competitors.

The charger's physical design includes 180-degree rotating prongs that offer two plug orientations: prongs facing downward from the display for standard outlets or positioned opposite the display for tight spaces. Anker relocated the USB-C port to the top surface to accommodate the display module, maintaining the device's remarkably small footprint.

The smart display provides real-time charging metrics showing power output levels in watts. More significantly, it automatically recognizes connected devices and optimizes power delivery accordingly. A physical tap activates Care Mode, which limits charging speeds to reduce heat generation and prolong battery health during overnight sessions.

Developers should note the device recognition capability demonstrates advanced power negotiation protocols that could inspire future accessory innovations. For consumer applications, the display eliminates guesswork when troubleshooting charging issues - users can instantly verify if their cable or power source delivers expected performance.

Available immediately on Amazon, the charger launches at $30 (regular $40) in Black, White, Blue, and new Orange color matching iPhone 17 Pro models. Select colors require activating on-page coupons during checkout. This price positions it competitively against basic 45W adapters while adding unique functionality.

The Nano 45W represents a practical evolution in charger design: its compact form addresses portability needs, the display adds diagnostic utility, and Care Mode extends device longevity. These features combined with 45W universal power delivery make it a versatile solution for Apple ecosystem users.
