Head-to-Head Breakdown
Strengths & Weaknesses
Anker Prime 67W (3-Port)
- Android Authority's best overall pick from more than 30 chargers tested, at 93% measured efficiency
- Up to 65W from the top port, enough for a MacBook Air, an ultrabook or a 45W Galaxy S25 Ultra
- Supports USB PD, PPS, Samsung Fast Charge and Quick Charge, so older and newer devices both fast charge
- With three devices plugged in it drops to 45W, 12W and 10W, which Android Authority calls just about passable
- 67W won't keep a 14- or 16-inch MacBook Pro at full speed under heavy load
- Android Authority calls it a bit pricey next to similar 67W chargers
Anker Nano 3 30W (511)
- Tom's Hardware's best low-power charger, Android Authority's best value and the Guardian's best budget pick
- Sustained its full 30W through both Tom's Hardware's and the Guardian's half-hour tests
- Folding prongs and a body barely bigger than Apple's old 5W cube, at about 40g
- One USB-C port, so you can't charge a second device
- Tom's Hardware measured a peak just under 65C, warmer than other low-power chargers
- Too little power for a 45W Galaxy Ultra or a laptop under heavy load

Robert Triggs, Android Authority's head of testing, put more than 30 USB-C chargers through efficiency measurements and charged Galaxy, iPhone, Pixel and MacBook devices from each. His pick for the best charger overall was the Anker Prime 67W. It measured 93% efficient, which he says keeps it relatively cool even with all three ports busy.
