Previously, we talked about Anker's new 25,000 mAh 165W Zolo power bank that comes with dual built-in USB-C cables. Now, it looks like there's a smaller power bank from Anker that could be coming soon, according to recent reports. This new device has a retractable USB-C cable similar to the Zolo power bank, but it doesn't have the Zolo name attached to it as of now. This power bank is part of Anker's newly revealed collection at a recent media event in Japan, which also highlighted the Anker SOLIX PS100 portable solar panels and the Anker Soundcore C40i clip-on wireless earbuds.
New Power Bank Details
The latest rumor involves the Anker Power Bank 10K 45W model, which is set to launch in Spring 2025. The device is designated with the model number A1638 and will feature a 10,000mAh capacity along with a bidirectional USB-C port for both charging and powering other devices.
Key Features
A standout aspect of this power bank is its retractable 0.7m USB-C cable that enhances portability and ease of use. The power bank can handle a 30W input and delivers a 45W USB-C output for speedy charging. Additionally, it includes a 22.5W USB-A output and a total multiport output of 24W. There's also a digital display for battery status, and it weighs in at 250g, as per reports.
Availability and Pricing
Expected to come in black, green, and white, this power bank is likely to be priced between $40 and $50. It will also include a lanyard for added convenience. It's relatively compact compared to other offerings from Anker, measuring 8.2 × 5.1 × 3.6 cm, which should appeal to users who need dependable power while on the move. For those seeking a larger option, the Anker 737 with 24,000 mAh and a 140W output is currently available on Amazon for $109.99.
