Anker’s New Prime 300W Energy Financial institution Is the Final Moveable Battery You will Ever Want

Anker confirmed off a couple of highly effective charging and laptop equipment at IFA 2025 this yr, and so they put out only a wacky quantity of energy. That’s very true of the Prime 300W Energy Financial institution and the Prime Docking Station, which options what the corporate calls “the primary triple show charging dock with secure 8K show output.”

The Prime 300W Energy Financial institution has sufficient juice to cost two laptops and a telephone without delay utilizing its two USB-C and single USB-A ports. Its display—which was laborious to see beneath the intense lights of the IFA corridor I used to be in, however appeared vibrant sufficient indoors—tells you ways a lot energy is left, what number of watts it’s outputting, and the charger’s present temperature.

You’ll be able to cycle via these utilizing a button on the aspect of the gadget. The Anker app helps you to do issues like prioritize which units you’d moderately ship extra energy to (a single USB-C port can present as much as 140 watts). And you may recharge it as much as 50% in simply quarter-hour, as it may well take as much as 250 watts without delay—although you’ll want to make use of two energy adapters and each of its USB-C ports for that. (Handily, Anker sells a 160W Prime Charger that’ll get you there.)

Then there’s the Prime Docking Station, a 14-port dock with a display, single SD and microSD card slots, and three USB-C ports on the entrance, every able to as much as 140W output, whereas the remaining ports are on the again. These are a 140W USB-C port for powering your laptop computer, together with these ports: three USB-C, three USB-A, two HDMI, one DisplayPort, one ethernet, one audio jack, and two SD card slots. Based on a member of Anker’s product group, the gadget makes use of HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4, and it may well solely output to 1 8K display at a time and as much as 4K on two others. You’ll wish to use DisplayPort for 8K output at 60Hz, although—the HDMI ports solely output 8K at 30Hz.

The show features like some other Anker Prime gadget, providing you with info like present USB-C output, standing in your information transfers, its present show sign, and the dock’s temperature. A knob on the aspect helps you to cycle via the choices. A kind of is the settings menu, the place you possibly can run via a couple of choices like display brightness, clock format, and even modify which course of knob flip does what. (I like tiny detailed settings like this.) I needed to see some issues, just like the file switch standing, in motion, however Anker wasn’t actually geared up to indicate that off.

You’ll be able to connect with the Prime Docking Station with an Anker PC app to observe units related to it or modify show settings. Whereas quite a lot of highly effective docks use passive cooling, Anker caught a fan within the Prime Docking Station to maintain the gadget from throttling beneath heavy load. Anker mentioned in its press supplies that the Docking Station might be $299.99 within the U.S., though it’s at present listed at $269.99.

In addition to the Energy Financial institution and Docking Station, the Prime collection additionally consists of that 160W charger I discussed above. Even this has a show, the place you’ll test how a lot energy it’s supplying via every of its three USB-C ports, that are able to outputting as much as 140W every (not concurrently, thoughts you). You can too cycle via three charging modes with a button on the entrance or connect with it with Bluetooth and use the Anker app for different modes and adjusting issues like display brightness or setting how lengthy it takes earlier than the display turns off. That’ll be $149 when it comes out on Sept. 25.

Lastly, Anker has a brand new three-in-one Prime Wi-fi Charging Station, a Qi2.2 wi-fi charging station with a wi-fi charging base for issues like AirPods, together with two stalks: one on your Apple Watch and one with a 25W magnetic charger that has a built-in fan to maintain your telephone cool whereas it prices. Anker says this lets it get an iPhone 16 Professional Max as much as 80% in 59 minutes—one thing you wouldn’t essentially count on from a standard MagSafe charger, since extra warmth could cause your telephone to throttle charging pace.

The Prime Wi-fi Charging Station’s show is for checking real-time charging stats. Slightly spot on the backside of the display is a touchpad that you may slide your finger on to cycle via settings or double-tap to place it in sleep mode so the fan isn’t making an excessive amount of noise. (I might really feel it however not hear it at full blast, however to be honest, IFA is loud.) The app additionally helps you to set that mode, in addition to configure charging schedules. Anker doesn’t say in its press supplies when this might be accessible, nor how a lot it’ll value.
