Anker's 25W MagSafe 3-in-1 Travel Charger Adds Active Cooling

The product is aimed at users of iPhone 16 or newer, which can support 25W MagSafe charging speeds. 9to5Mac reported that the new Anker model is one of many options for taking advantage of Qi2.2 and that its main selling point is its portable design. The charger includes a 45W charge brick and a USB-C cable, providing enough power to charge an iPhone, AirPods and Apple Watch at the same time. According to the report, it can charge an iPhone 18 Pro to 50% in 27 minutes.

Active cooling is included because 25W wireless charging makes it practically a necessity, the report said. Nearly every 25W charger on the market integrates active cooling, and Anker's foldable 3-in-1 is no exception. The report described the design as similar in portability to Apple's discontinued MagSafe Duo, with two key differences: it can serve as a stand and it can charge three devices at once instead of two.

The Apple Watch charger has a spring-loaded mechanism. It folds inward when the charger is compacted, and pressing downward on it makes it spring outward when the user is ready to unfold everything. 9to5Mac called the feature neat, though unnecessary, and said it helps justify the product's premium price.

In its conclusion, 9to5Mac said the Anker charger is a good choice for users who want a MagSafe 3-in-1 that works for travel. Because it includes active cooling, the report said, it charges an iPhone quickly without the overheating or other negative side effects that wireless charging can sometimes produce. The charger is currently sold on Amazon with Prime delivery for $99 in both black and white.

Editor's Summary Anker has launched a 25W Qi2.2 MagSafe 3-in-1 travel charger with active cooling, a 45W power brick and a spring-loaded Apple Watch charger, 9to5Mac reported. It can charge an iPhone, AirPods and Apple Watch at once and is listed on Amazon for $99 in black and white. The hands-on report positions it as a portable option for iPhone 16 and newer users seeking 25W wireless charging.
