Anker has released a new version of its compact 70W 4-port charger in the UK, giving users a single solution for powering multiple devices. This update matters because it allows you to charge a laptop and a phone at the same time without needing separate bricks. The move simplifies desk setups and travel kits by consolidating power delivery into one small unit.
Compact 70W charger with three USB-C ports and one USB-A port
The device, known as the Zolo Charger with model number A121C, features a specific port layout designed for versatility. It includes three USB-C ports and one USB-A port to accommodate various cable types. Anker designed this configuration to handle the diverse charging needs of modern laptops and smartphones simultaneously.
