Anker's new Prime 160 W charger is now officially out in Europe. This small power brick first came out in the US, and it's built to be a great choice for quickly charging several gadgets at once. Its best parts are the big power output and the cool, easy-to-use smart touch screen. Design and Power Ports Anker markets the charger as being about the size of an AirPods case, emphasizing its portability. It features a compact design, measuring just 65 x 52 x 35 mm (2.56 x 2.05 x 1.38 inches), and weighs approximately 220 grams (0.48 pounds). This makes it an ideal travel companion. The device is equipped with three USB-C ports that collectively deliver a maximum of 160W of power. When only one device is connected, the charger can output up to 140W through any single port. The power distribution shifts when multiple devices are plugged in. For example, in three-port mode, the power is allocated as 100W, 30W, and 30W across the C1, C2, and C3 ports, respectively. Anker Prime 160W Charger Smart Features and Controls The Anker Prime 16 W charger stands out thanks to its smart touch display. This screen provides users with real-time output power for each port. It also allows for easy switching between different charging interfaces and modes directly on the device. Source: Reddit (u/privaterbok) For even greater control, the charger supports app-based settings via the Anker companion application. You can use the Anker app to pick how the charger splits its power. For instance, you can choose the default split of 100W, 30W, and 30W across the three ports. Or, you can switch to a different combination like 70W, 70W, and 20W. You can also use the app to turn down the screen's brightness, set a sleep timer for the display, or pick a different language. Power and Protection This small charger is made to be safe to use. It has ActiveShield 4.0 technology built in. Think of this as a smart system that constantly watches the temperature in three dimensions to keep everything running safely. Anker shared some great results about how fast it charges. They claim the charger can power up a MacBook Pro 16 from totally empty (0%) to 50% charged in only 24 minutes. That really shows how powerful this charger is. Price and Availability The new charger is now officially available for purchase across Europe. Buyers can acquire the accessory for €129. It is currently listed directly on Anker’s official website and on Amazon Germany. The Prime 160 W charger isn't the only new gadget crossing the pond. Anker has simultaneously released other premium accessories. These include the Prime Power Bank (26K, 300W), the 3-in-1 wireless magnetic station, and the robust 14-in-1 Prime docking station.
