4.0 out of 5 stars Wish it were free

You should probably not listen to the folks who got this charger for free, of course it will be 5 stars if it were free. But it's not. It does not detect or say what device it's charging other than iPhone and Maybe Galaxy. I have charged a Google pixel and a windows laptop and both devices do not have a cool tag/name on the screen. I only ever had the three displays, so don't hope for a funny or cool animation that changes frequently. You are unable to change the animation. However the nice things about this are it is small, and it is powerful. It does have two features to charge in auto and charge in care mode. Now care mode just puts a little less power through the cord which is nice. And this does charge a razer blade stealth at 35 watts.

High Quality & Foldable

Tiny Charger, Big Power – One of the Smartest Charging Upgrades I’ve Made

2026-03-02    -Reviewer

I picked up the Anker Nano 45W Smart Display Charger mainly because I wanted something compact that could still handle fast charging for my iPhone and other devices, and it has seriously exceeded my expectations. The first thing that stands out is just how small and portable this charger is. It easily fits in a pocket or bag without taking up any space, which makes it perfect for travel, office use, or even just keeping in a jacket pocket for emergencies.Despite the tiny size, the performance is impressive. It charges my iPhone incredibly fast, and I love that it intelligently adjusts the power instead of blindly pushing max output all the time. That gives me peace of mind knowing my battery is being treated properly rather than being stressed every time I plug in. The Care Mode is a brilliant addition, especially for overnight charging. I genuinely feel more confident leaving my phone plugged in without worrying about heat or long-term battery wear.The smart display is another feature I didn’t realize I’d enjoy so much. Being able to see the charging status at a glance is super satisfying and practical. The rotating screen is also a clever touch, especially when using it in tight wall outlets or power strips where orientation matters.Build quality feels premium, exactly what I expect from Anker. The foldable prongs make it even more travel-friendly and prevent scratching other items in my bag. It pairs perfectly with both phones and laptops, and having one charger that can do it all simplifies my setup nicely.This charger feels like a thoughtful blend of power, safety, and convenience in a truly compact form. If you want a reliable, fast, and smart charger that doesn’t take up space or compromise your battery’s health, this Anker Nano 45W is an excellent choice and absolutely worth it.

Stable and consistent power delivery; No need for "Care" mode for some Android phones

2025-12-28    -Athletic Scientist

What's included:- Anker 45W nano charger with smart displayThe Anker 45W nano charger with smart display charges both older and newer phones with a relatively predictable manner, and although I was only able to test Android phones, I found that the older phones I tested, never push the charger to it's limits thus eliminating the need for the care option that is available, and a more reasonable option with newer phones.Characteristics:The charger is quite small and well made and has a couple of configurations for plugging into an outlet, although I am not a big fan of the configuration where you plug it directly into a wall with the screen facing outward. I found that on occasion when plugging it into an outlet this straight on configuration is a bit of a nuisance since sometimes the prongs will collapse slightly.The charger comes with one USB-C style port and a button that is used to control the charger's options including what gets displayed on the LCD screen as well as what mode to use.Being a nano charger this Anker charger does a really nice job at only utilizing one receptacle in a normal two receptable plug which leaves the other one open for anything else you may need it for.LCD screen:One of the highlights of this charger is the LCD screen that conveys various messages in a high definition screen and that means that while the screen is small, its still very clear and easy to read the messages as well as viewing the cartoon-like actions on the screen.But does the screen serve a useful purpose or is it really a gimmick? Based on my experience I am somewhere in the middle and here's why. First, the screen provides a numerical value for the watts being charged into a phone. This is something that I personally find very useful and informative but there are two small issues - one, the numbers is small and could have been larger. Second, the value being conveyed is at time accurate and at other times inaccurate. As a general rule of thumb, if there are less than 20W being transferred, the value on the charger's screen is either accurate or one watt off - and when above 20 watts it can be 1-2 watts off. This is not bad but its not precise.Next, I do really like that there are some thermal indicators conveyed by the charger, but here too, you have to switch screens to those thermals rather than being notified if things warm up (although I never observed a hot circumstance so I cannot say if you are notified or not under that circumstance) but for the warm or cool readings it up to you to search out the thermal screen, moreover there are no actual numbers given to understand how hot things are, although in my testing, I can say without a doubt that the charger does warm up at times which I will discuss more next.Performance:At the end of the day, this charger's value to me is based on its performance. So I decided to test three phones, a Google Pixel 10 (newer phone) and a Samsung A71 (mid-aged phone) and Pixel 3A (older phone). Unfortunately, all the phones I tested are Android based phones which is a limitation of my testing since I do not have access to any iPhone models.The way I tested the charger is by plugging the charger into an outlet, plugging in a USB meter into the chargers single USB-C port, using a USB-C to USB-C cable from the USB meter to each phone (and just to note, I used the same cable for all three phones). I also tested each phone a day apart from a starting point of xero percent charge, and when not testing the phones I kept the charger completely unplugged so it would be completely cooled when used rather than testing phones one after the other and not giving the charger time to cool down.I have attached charts which demonstrate the power charging curve for each phone and a couple of things become apparent. First, the Samsung A71 and Pixel 3A charge pretty efficiently and never cause the USB meter's sensor to warm up. While I cannot make direct commentary about the thermals of the charger (since I do not have a surface probe), its reasonable to assume that the charger remained "relatively" stable with respect to thermals if the USB meter's thermals did. This can be further supported by the fact that when I would touch the charger it was never hotter than slightly warm I believe this also contributes to the fact that there is stable consistent power transfer to these phones throughout without any throttling along the way. Lastly, in my mind, it makes the "Care" mode irrelevant for these phones and perhaps older Android phones in general because the thermals don't support sacrificing speed of charging for some extra cooling in those cases. Just to highlight what the "Care" mode is, its the lowering of power transfer to a phone which keeps the charger cooler in the process. The benefit is cooler temps, the cost however is longer charging times because less power being transferred.In the case of the Google Pixel 10, its a slightly different story. While the Pixel 10, a brand new phone model, displays a similar style of charging, with a dramatic rise at the start and then a continuous deterioration over time, there is some thermal impact on the charger. For example, I observed a temperature on the USB meter of 45 degrees which I want to point out is not the temperature of the charger, but does indicate a "relative" increase in the temperature of the charger vs the other phones - and here this inference is supported by the fact that touching the charger, its much warmer. So if there is a circumstance where the "Care" mode COULD be used, its near the initial stages of charging for a new Android phone. One additional note regarding thermals, is that there is a bit of a delay from the time the USB sensor indicates hotter temps vs the lag in the time the charger heats up - there's about a 3-5 minute lag.In my mind, I don't see the heat being generated by the charger being a particular concern and see no real value for me personally in using the "Care" mode. I would however point out that the "Care" mode is something I would give consideration to IF I charge one device after another using the charger without giving it's internal components time to cool down between charging devices. Furthermore, if you plug this charger into a receptacle near a heat register with ambient heat near the charger, it WILL impact it's thermals so when it comes to placement, its best to use this charger away from any kind of ambient heat sources.So my basic conclusions when it comes to performance of this little charger is that it works well, offers consistent patterns of power charging, power negotiation is not an issue (its starts in one mode and stays in that mode), I experienced no sudden unexplainable large drops in power delivery, and the "Care" mode is a good "nice to have" when wanting to charge one device after another but outside of that, not really necessary. The screen could be more focused more on performance rather than cartoon-like imagery and scenes, and the claims of being able to recognize different models of phones is something that I did not see, at least with the phones I tested.Size:Finally when it comes to the size of this nano charger, It's easy to take on the road, and can be used in tight power bars which space is a premium. While it only has one port, the fact that it's a USB-C style port is useful given how most of the things I own will benefit from this type of port.This is a useful charger which has proven to me that it meets my criteria as a charger that I feel confident in using for any of our phones or other items on a day to day basis. I also know from my tests that if I want to optimize its performance it will happen when charging items after the charger's internal components cool down. I would therefore recommend this charger, however if looking for a charger that will charge multiple components, I would suggest picking up a higher powered multiple port charger rather than something like this and attempting to charge one device after another because the multiple port charger will perform better and this one will underperform.Cheers,

Nice quality feature rich iPhone 16/17 charge adapter.

2026-02-13    -Kelly M

This is not the corner gas station cheap charge adapter for your iPhone 16/17.I tested with an iPhone 16.Physically this has a very nice build quality, superior to the “best of” the old Apple days when they still included a charger with your phone. Fit and finish is exceptional.The adjustable (swing 90° + near fold flat for storage) ac prongs are robust but not rigid, they can be twisted a bit pulling the adapter out and not break.The shell is a premium feeling plastic with a bright clear display.In use- when you first connect to a compatible IPhone, it recognizes the model of phone, displays the current battery charge level and sets the charge rate accordingly. The charge rate is dynamic depending on battery level and the charger mode.The modes are auto and gentle. The gentle is a lower rate charge, used for overnight and long periods of phone inactivity while being plugged in. The documentation claims reductions in charger and battery temperatures vs the more aggressive charge curve of “auto”.There is a touch sensitive pad on the charge to turn on the display(it auto times out) view and select modes (double tap to enter mode select) and to flip the display 180°(long hold on touch pad).One small note- on the temperature display when cool is displays “Breezing” which seems like a translation misspelling or similar in the firmware.No impact on function, but if it were my product I’d update the firmware going forward to improve customer confidence in a nice product.Output port is USB-C exclusively.With the cost of batteries and service on expensive phones like the iPhone 16/17 a quality charge adapter is something to consider, and this one is slick.Of note- I used this on my wife’s iPhone 13pro max and although the iPhone identification and such is not supported, the charger auto adjusted well to manage the full charge cycle from a near dead battery to fully charged, with peak charge rate at ~25watts.
