With a total output of 250W, Anker’s 6-port desktop charging station is now on sale for $99.99 at Amazon, the best price we’ve seen for it so far.
The best thing about Anker Prime’s charging station is that consolidates charging of all your desktop accessories. It has six ports—four USB-C up front and two USB-A on the side—that are all powered by a single wall outlet yet still able to handle your laptop, phone, tablet, and other smaller devices thanks to its capable total output.
The left-most USB-C port delivers the most power, capping out at 140W, so that’s the one to use with your laptop. The rest of the output gets split up between the other ports in use, and you’ll be able to see exactly how much power is flowing to each port with the smart LCD display. There’s also a dial on the right side that lets you prioritize ports, bypassing the AI mode that auto-distributes based on each device’s power needs.
Our friends at Macworld reviewed this Anker charging station and gave it their Editors’ Choice award as well as a near-perfect 4.5-star rating, praising its precise port controls, visual feedback, and power output.
One thing to be aware of: this charging station isn’t exactly portable. At over 1.5 pounds, you’re not going to pack it up in your luggage or move it to your bedroom for overnight charging sessions. If you need something more portable for frequent travel, you may want to opt for this 140W Anker travel power strip instead.
At $149.99, this charging station is in line with other capable desktop chargers that get close on output but lack the display and port controls. If your desk has multiple chargers competing for the same outlet and your laptop still isn’t charging fast enough, this solves both problems at a price that’s now difficult to argue with: $99.99 at Amazon.
