Make room for what matters

Choose phone charging for your desk or your bag

Choose phone accessories around where you need power. The Anker 737 power bank is a portable battery, while the Anker Prime 6-in-1 charging station is for an outlet-based setup. Compare the complete charging chain before adding either to your cart.

Phone accessories: match the charging chain

  • Away from an outlet
    Start with the power bank if you need stored power while out. Review its weight, recharge method and the devices you plan to connect.
  • At your desk
    Start with the charging station if you need an organized place for several devices near an outlet. Plan the power-cord and device-cable routes.
  • Several devices at once
    Read the output table for the exact port combination. A maximum single-port figure is not a promise that every connected device receives that amount.

Check your phone, cable and other devices together

Write down your phone model and any tablet or laptop you will charge alongside it. Then check the supported charging protocol, cable rating and connector at both ends. A USB-C connector alone does not establish the charging rate.

Anker's 737 guidance explains that its available output is shared when both USB-C ports are in use. Use the product's multi-port table and your device's input requirements to set expectations; the headline maximum is not a measured result for your phone.

Explore the products for your shortlist

Match these options to your space, devices and daily routine. Then check the exact model and the parts in the box.

Budget for the whole charging setup

First, confirm which cables and wall charger, if any, come with the selected package. A power bank also needs a way to recharge. For a station, measure the distance to your outlet and the space needed for the connected cables.

If your main problem is running out of power during a commute, a desk station will not replace a charged battery in your bag. If your desk is crowded with adapters, carrying more battery capacity may not solve that problem either.

Questions that change your choice

Will the maximum wattage make every phone charge faster?

Not necessarily. The charger or battery, cable and device must support the needed charging mode. Use the phone maker's guidance and the port combination you expect to use.

Which detail is easiest to overlook?

Recharging the power bank itself. Confirm the required cable and compatible input charger so that your planned portable setup is ready for the next day.
