Anker Prime 250W GaN Desktop Charger (6 Ports) Silver
The Anker Prime 250W GaN Desktop Charger (6 Ports) Silver is a desktop charging station built for people juggling multiple devices at a desk, combining four USB-C ports and two USB-A ports with a total output of up to 250W. The top USB-C port (C1) can deliver up to 140W on its own, enough to take a 16-inch MacBook Pro to 50% in about 25 minutes, while the remaining USB-C ports scale up to 100W each and the USB-A ports reach 22.5W. A 2.26″ LCD display and smart control dial show live charging status and speed for each port, and let you manually adjust power distribution rather than relying entirely on automatic allocation. ActiveShield 3.0 monitors temperature more than 6 million times a day, and the charger can connect to 2.4GHz Wi-Fi (5GHz isn’t supported) to link with the Anker app for additional monitoring and control. At 640g and roughly 4.18 x 1.58 x 3.64 inches, it’s built for a stationary desktop setup rather than travel.

Best Suited For
- Home office and desk setups needing to charge a laptop, phone, tablet, and accessories from one station instead of multiple wall chargers
- MacBook Pro and other high-wattage laptop owners, since the C1 port’s 140W output supports fast charging for demanding laptops
- Users who want visibility and control over charging, given the LCD display and smart dial let you monitor and adjust power per port in real time
Recommended Action: Connect a high-power device only to the C1 port with a cable rated for 140W or higher, since the other USB-C ports cap at 100W and won’t reach the charger’s full single-port speed.
