5 Anker Accessories You'll Want To Keep Around The House
Most of your digital life revolves around your daily drivers — your phone, computer, and maybe even a tablet. They're the devices you probably spent a lot of time carefully choosing to make sure they're a perfect fit for your lifestyle and needs. More often than not, though, you overlook an important part of your setup: accessories that keep your daily drivers powered and convenient to use.
At the very least, you need a high-power charger and a reliable cable for your devices. But it takes more than these two basic accessories to create a tech setup that's truly practical, especially at home. You need a combination of good power banks, power strips, and other types of cables.
But of course, not all accessories are equally useful. It's important to choose the right ones to get the most out of the devices without making your home feel more cluttered than you'd like. If you want to build a more convenient and functional tech setup, Anker offers a wide range of accessories worth keeping around the house. Here are five of them.
Prime Wireless Charging Station (Foldable)
Owning an iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods normally means you need to have three separate chargers to recharge them at the same time. That can be a hassle and leave you dealing with too much cable clutter. If you want a more convenient alternative, a three-in-one wireless charger like the Anker Prime Wireless Charging Station (Foldable) is a solid option.
This Apple-exclusive charger lets you charge your phone, smartwatch, and wireless earbuds simultaneously. When paired with the 45-watt adapter that comes in the box, it offers up to 25-watt Qi2.2 fast charging. That's nearly as capable as your regular wall charger. In fact, it only takes 26 minutes for this Anker charger to take an iPhone 17 Pro from dead to 50% charge. However, the 25-watt fast charging only applies to iPhone 16 series and later. Older models don't support Qi2.2 and are limited to 15 watts.
Design-wise, this wireless charging station is foldable and doubles as a phone stand. You can adjust the stand from zero to 60 degrees and rotate your phone to landscape or portrait as needed. It also measures only 3.74 by 2.38 by 1.22 inches, so it won't take much space on your bedside table or work desk. It can also work on your living room side table, allowing you to top off your devices as you watch your favorite movie. It's also a good fit in the kitchen, especially if you use your phone for reading recipes.
Nano Power Strip Clamp
If you're fed up with the tangled cables in your home office, one of the best gadgets to help you declutter your desk is the Nano Power Strip Clamp. Unlike regular power strips, this model clamps onto the edge of your desk instead of simply sitting on top of it. It comes with anti-slip pads and a tightening knob to keep it securely in place, which means it won't get easily knocked off. You can install this power strip clamp on any table as long as it has a clampable edge and is between 0.6 and 1.8 inches thick.
In terms of output ports, the Nano Power Strip Clamp includes two USB-C ports, each designed to deliver a maximum of 70 watts. This is usually enough to charge your phone, tablet, and even laptop, so you won't have to keep multiple charging bricks on your desk. There are also two USB-A ports on the power strip for your other small electronics and six AC outlets for bigger devices like your monitor, desktop computer, TV, and electric fan. For convenience, the outlets are distributed across several sides: two on top, one on each side of the bottom zone, and two under the bottom zone. This layout makes your desk look cleaner since the cables aren't piled up on just one side.
Another nice touch is the compact size of the Nano Power Strip Clamp. It's only about the length and width of a phone, and the top zone is less than an inch thick, making it barely visible on your desk. This sleek design works well for other spaces, too, including your small bedside table, the workbench in your garage, and your kitchen island.
Nano 6-in-1 Charging Station
You can't have too many power strips at home, especially if your wall outlets are awkwardly placed or if you don't have enough of them to accommodate all your devices. But having chunky power strips around the house isn't exactly visually appealing. If you want to have easy access to AC power without it being an eyesore, Anker offers a solution to this in the form of the five-foot-long Nano 6-in-1 Charging Station.
This charging station comes with two USB-C ports, two USB-A ports, and two AC ports to accommodate your different devices. The USB-C ports are rated at 67-watt fast charging for single-port charging, enough to fully charge a MacBook Pro 13-inch laptop in under two hours. On the other hand, both of the USB-A ports deliver a maximum of 12 watts each.
Besides charging performance, what makes the Nano 6-in-1 Charging Station different from regular power strips is its form factor. It's pretty compact at only 3.6 by 3.8 by 0.7 inches, so you might not even notice it when it's on your kitchen counter, coffee table, or home office. The plug is just as sleek, too, measuring just 0.35 inches thick. This means you can easily hide it behind couches and cabinets since it won't stick out like a regular plug. While compact, though, this charging station is still safe to use, thanks to its seven-point safety system. That includes fire resistance, over-voltage and over-current protection, and a temperature control system.
Prime Power Bank
A power bank is often used for outdoor activities and travel, but it's actually one of the essential gadgets for dealing with power outages at home too. If you're looking for a high-capacity power bank to get you through a blackout in your area, check out the Anker Prime Power Bank 26 with 26,250 milliampere-hour charging capacity.
Thanks to its high capacity, this power bank is designed to power as much as 19 hours of video conferencing on a MacBook Pro M4 and 5.5 days of video streaming on an iPhone 17 Pro Max. It can only recharge a MacBook Pro M4 to 80%, but for smaller devices, you could easily get at least one full charge out of this Prime Power Bank. While it packs a punch, it's still small enough to fit in your drawer. It only measures 6.3 by 1.5 by 2.5 inches and weighs about as much as a 20-ounce water bottle.
In total, the power bank offers up to 300 watts of output through its two USB-C ports and one USB-A port. Its built-in USB-C ports can deliver up to 140 watts each, which means they can charge a MacBook Pro M4 Pro to 50% in 27 minutes, an iPhone 17 Pro Max to 50% in 22 minutes, and a Samsung S25 Ultra in 26 minutes. The power bank itself can be charged quickly too. You can plug it into two 140-watt USB-C chargers at the same time to get to 50% charge in just 13 minutes and 80% in 40 minutes, useful when you're in a hurry to recharge.
321 USB-A-to-Lightning Cable
While USB-C is the most common port used in devices these days, you might still have old electronics that come with a microUSB or Lightning port. Instead of having multiple different cables for each of your different devices, you could use one 3-in-1 cable like the Anker 321 USB-A to Lightning/USB-C/MicroUSB Cable.
This is a 35-inch three-headed cable, where the microUSB connector serves as an adapter for the Lightning and USB-C connectors. You can use the microUSB end for old devices like flashlights and Bluetooth speakers, while the Lightning cable can be handy for older Apple hardware like AirPods 3 and iPhone 14. Of course, the USB-C connector is used for charging most of your devices like modern smartphones, power banks, and smartwatches. You can use the cable for transferring data, as well.
If you primarily use Apple devices, you'll be glad to know that this cable is also MFi-certified. This means it's officially compatible with Apple products. But whether you're using Apple or non-Apple products, the cable can hold up to regular use, with a rated lifespan of up to 12,000 bends. Other than keeping one in your home drawer for frequent use, the Anker 321 Cable is a must-have for your travels, too, especially if you're bringing both new and old devices.
