Anker just announced three new chargers at CES 2026, and surprisingly, one of them is already on sale ahead of its launch on January 20th launch. Anker’s latest 45W Nano Charger, the company’s first Nano Charger to sport a built-in display, is available to preorder from Anker’s online storefront in one of several colors for $29.99 ($10 off) when you use promo code WS24D5XT3DV9 at checkout.

Anker’s latest single-port charger delivers up to 45W of power, which should be enough to charge an iPhone 17 Pro to 50 percent capacity in as little as 20 minutes. What truly sets it apart, though, is its front-facing “smart display,” which shows the charge level, power flow, and temperature of the connected device. It can also recognize and identify specific iPhone models dating back to the iPhone 15 — as well as iPad Pro models from 2020 onward — and adjust charging based on power needs. For example, it’ll deliver maximum speeds when a phone is nearly dead, then drop to 15W once a device is above 80 percent.

Additionally, Anker’s new Nano Charger features a “Care Mode” that can lower charging temperatures overnight with a simple double-tap. The charger’s folding prongs can also rotate 180 degrees, making it easier to plug in at different angles or in tight spaces. Just bear in mind that, while it does work with non-Apple devices, the built-in display likely won’t provide as much information.

A few more worthwhile deals

• Epicka’s Universal Travel Adapter is on sale starting at $15.99 ($9 off) at Amazon, matching its best price to date. The lightweight wall adapter lets you charge up to six devices at once using a single USB-C port, four USB-A ports, and one AC socket. That makes it easy to top off everything from phones to cameras while traveling in more than 200 countries, from Italy to Argentina.
• The **Nothing Ear Open **are available from Amazon and Nothing for around $98.99 ($50 off), which is just $5 shy of their all-time low. The open-style, water-resistant earbuds offer comfort and peace of mind thanks to an over-ear hook that rests just inside your ear rather than within the canal, making it easier to hear traffic and other potential hazards. Despite their unique design, however, they still deliver solid sound with an adjustable EQ, USB-C charging, and multipoint connectivity. They also feature a “Low Lag Mode” for gaming, as well as ChatGPT integration for Nothing phone owners. Read our hands-on impressions.
• The Breville Barista Express is currently on sale at Amazon, Best Buy, and Williams Sonoma for $649.95 ($150 off), which matches its second-best price to date. It’s still on the pricey side, but it may be worth it if you’re the kind of person who enjoys making cafe-quality espresso at home. The machine is easy to use and relatively simple to maintain, and Breville includes most of the tools you’ll need for daily maintenance and deeper cleanings.
