I hope to see some PD stuff and to see USB-C present in the new devices. No more MicroB please.

Sam_Reed · February 17, 2018, 6:24pm

I would love to see more USB-C accessories - some manufacturers have started using USB-C ports on accessories like headphones, and I would love to see Anker do the same. some of the power banks offer USB-C recharging, so let’s see it on more of them, and maybe even on some headphones or other products!

TheDude · February 17, 2018, 7:20pm

Agreed but both would be nice most Android devices out there are still micro.

Insider · February 17, 2018, 7:23pm

Really?

What Android devices are still releasing with microB?

Anker already has so many products with microB; I don’t think they need to release any more.

Hype is real!!

Corwin_Davis_Khoe · February 18, 2018, 4:37am

Same. Good point

dragonjiang2002 · February 18, 2018, 7:52am

Now I will hold up on some purchases

Tank · February 18, 2018, 7:56am

I’m thinking with new products comes a price drop or better sales on the older products so I agree, I will wait and see before making a jump on things now

I would still love something for the Apple Watch. It’s not going away. The Apple night stand is like £70. Come on Anker. Hook me up
Or at least I hope your new wireless pads can charge a series 1 Apple Watch. That would be a start.

Tank · February 19, 2018, 1:11pm

Doesn’t the Apple watch require a special chip in order to access and charge it? If so I don’t think their wireless pads will charge it, unless they utilize that apple tech

doris4jin · February 19, 2018, 10:59pm

Definitely would like to see more PD power banks and chargers as well as the Zolo smart speakers

doris4jin · February 19, 2018, 11:01pm

Series 1 Apple Watch uses special magnetic induction charge but some has found they can use certain Qi chargers for series 3 watches.

Oggyboy · February 20, 2018, 6:05am

I’ve seen the series 3 being charged on a charging pad.
Maybe I’ll have to get a new one

TheDude · February 21, 2018, 8:20pm

All the cheap Androids which take up most of the Android market. Don’t get me wrong I want to see type c as well, both micro and type c would be ideal. I would imagine that people who buy cheap Androids rarely Buy accessories like power Banks anyway.

Insider · February 22, 2018, 7:31pm

Agree, but do you really think Anker should have new releases with micro?

They already have a plethora of products with micro.

Jack_Matthias · February 22, 2018, 10:48pm

@AnkerOfficial when can we expect the new wireless chargers to be for sale that we saw at CES. I wanna buy a wireless charger but not the old one since the new one is coming

Insider · February 22, 2018, 10:49pm

Well, the single 7.5W pad and stand should be coming first because they have already passed through the FCC.

Jack_Matthias · February 22, 2018, 10:50pm

I know looking for a time line

Insider · February 22, 2018, 11:06pm

Yeah, unfortunately Anker isn’t always the most open to providing timelines and details in general about upcoming products. Since a timeline wasn’t provided to news outlets at CES, I doubt it will be here, either.

Of course, I’ll try to be the first one to let you know! I’ll be posting all about them right when I initially spot them on Amazon.

nbtaylor · February 24, 2018, 6:33pm

I’m really hoping for some small powercores with USB C input for faster charging! Ideally a 6700mah or so power bank with quick charging would be very nice! Also a powerline + II lineup for USB C cables similar to the lightning cables.
