The Anker 65W 3-Port Fast Charger is the Anker 735, also referred to as the Nano II 65W, and measures approximately the same length as an AirPods Pro case at 2.6 inches. The front panel has two USB-C ports and one USB-A port, so you can charge a laptop, a tablet, and a smartphone simultaneously from one wall outlet.
Head over to Amazon to get the Anker 65W 3-Port Fast Charger for just $24, down from its usual price of $30. That’s a $6 discount and 20% off.
A quick and easy way to ensure all your devices are charged
Anker has implemented gallium nitride (GaN) GaN II technology to make the charger small enough to fit in a pocket. Gallium nitride replaces traditional silicon because GaN handles heat and voltage far better. GaN II goes beyond GaN by improving circuit board performance, optimizing the internal stack design, and doubling the operating frequency. This allows a charger that is about 53% smaller than a standard laptop charger while delivering the same power.
If you plug only one device into either USB-C port, you will receive the full 65W. That includes, among others, the Apple MacBook Air 2020, the Dell XPS 13, or the ThinkPad X390 charging at their typical rate. Most laptops have a brick included that charges at this speed, so this charger could replace up to two or three bricks in your bag.
As soon as you add another item plugged into a second USB-C port, the charger’s power distribution changes. Each USB-C port receives 45W and 20W, and if you plug in both a USB-C and a USB-A device, each will receive 40W and 22.5W, respectively. If you fill all three ports, then the uppermost USB-C port will provide 40W, with the lower two receiving 12W each. At this point, you can charge a laptop, tablet, and smartphone simultaneously.
In addition to Power Delivery (PD), Quick Charge (QC) and Programmable Power Supply (PPS) protocols are supported, so virtually every smartphone manufacturer can fast charge using this charger. PowerIQ 3.0 determines how much power each device requests and supplies just that amount. For example, you could connect a Nintendo Switch, a pair of AirPods, and an iPad Pro simultaneously, and each would receive the power they require.
Anker includes MultiProtect safety features, including overheat detection, overload detection, and short-circuit detection. In addition, this charger complies with IEC 62368-1 standards. At $24 instead of $30, the Anker 65W 3-Port Fast Charger comes with an 18-month warranty and an instructional manual.
