Anker Nano A121D 45W Smart Display Charger

Smart: The Anker Nano A121D is a 45W USB-C plug charger with a display for charging information and on-device controls. It is a single-port option for compatible phones, tablets and laptops, but the cable is not included and charging speed depends on the connected device.

At a glance

The display can show charging information. Tap once to view status, double-tap to switch modes and press for two seconds to rotate the screen.
Care Mode is activated with a double tap. The manufacturer says it lowers charging temperature by up to 5°C compared with standard 45W chargers.
The listing claims up to 45W charging and gives an internal-test example of an iPhone 18 Pro reaching 50% in 15 minutes. Actual results vary with device and use conditions.
The screen turns off automatically after a period of inactivity. It is not a touchscreen and rotates 180°, not 90°.

What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The claimed 45W is a maximum, not a guaranteed rate for every device. The listing gives examples of lower device-specific limits and says charging power changes with battery level. Smart model recognition is limited to specified iPhone and iPad generations. Battery-level and model identification support is narrower still, and some Lightning devices may not be recognised. The description also says the charger is not a touchscreen, the screen rotates only 180°, the display turns off after one minute of inactivity, and the plug prongs are not foldable. Firmware updates and app use require a wired USB-C to USB-C connection, while Bluetooth app connectivity is not supported.
