Anker unveils new iPhone + Apple Watch stand and 20W USB-C charger
Anker just unveiled three new accessories for the iPhone 12 lineup which include a 2-in-1 PowerWave Sense Stand, a compact 20W USB-C charger and a MagSafe-style charger.
The PowerWave Sense Stand is a 2-in-1 charger for the iPhone and Apple Watch. The wireless charging stand for the iPhone delivers up to 10W and has a fabric texture. While there is an Apple Watch charging puck, users have to place their own Apple Watch charger in the puck. There is also no power adapter bundled, so users have to purchase one separately which has 18W or higher output.
The PowerWave Sense Stand is available for US$30.99 and comes with 1.5m USB-A to USB-C cable.
The second accessory is the PowerPort III 20W USB-C charger. It retains the same design as the popular Nano charger, but it comes with folding prongs which take up less space.
Anker claims its Power IQ 3.0 technology will detect the device's specific charging requirement and provide optimised charging speeds. Overall, it can deliver up to 20W charging to most flagship phones.
The PowerPort III 20W USB-C charger is priced at US$13.99.
As the name suggests, the PowerWave Magnetic Pad Lite is a follow-up to the first-generation product with a more compact form factor. While specs are not known at the moment, the official image shows a more compact USB-C plug, which is much smaller than the bulky USB-C plug on the PowerWave Magnetic Pad.
Since the launch of the iPhone 12 in October 2020, Anker has released several compatible accessories for the iPhone 12 models such as the PowerWave Magnetic 2-in-1 Stand and PowerCore Magnetic 5K Wireless Power Bank.
