Anker is preparing to launch a new high-capacity power bank, previewing the device shortly after Xiaomi introduced its own compatible model. The upcoming release carries China’s new GB 47372-2026 safety certification and appears to be a revised version of the existing Zolo power bank.
Design and simultaneous charging capacity
Teaser images published on Weibo reveal a multidevice-ready layout with two built-in USB-C cables and both USB-C and USB-A ports. The configuration supports charging up to four devices at once. Anker notes that any of the three USB-C outputs can deliver up to 55 W of fast charging, a step up from the 45 W maximum available on the current Zolo model. The USB-A port is rated for up to 33 W.
Power specs and battery capacity
The listed rated energy is 74 Wh, which translates to roughly the same 20,000 mAh capacity found in the present-generation Zolo power bank. Beyond the faster 55 W output, the most significant change is formal compliance with China’s GB 47372-2026 national safety standard. The regulation sets stricter safety requirements intended to lower the risk of battery-related fires and explosions, and manufacturers are expected to transition their product lines ahead of its April 1, 2027 enforcement date.
Availability and market timing
Anker has not yet disclosed pricing or a release date for the upgraded 55 W Zolo power bank. The teaser follows a wave of certifications from accessory makers adjusting their portfolios to meet the upcoming safety benchmark, signaling a broader product refresh cycle in the portable charging segment.
