I’ve used a lot of car chargers over the years, and most of them get the job done… eventually. But this one from Anker genuinely feels like a step up.
I’ve been a fan of Anker products for a long time, and this charger keeps that streak going. It’s affordable, but it doesn’t feel “budget” at all. The performance is where it really shines. The 30W USB-C port, paired with a good 60W USB-C cable, fast-charges my iPhone 15 Pro Max with zero issues. Even when I’m running Google Maps and streaming music at the same time, the battery percentage still climbs instead of slowly draining. That alone completely removes the usual road-trip battery anxiety.
What surprised me most was how well it handles dual charging. I tested it with the 22.5W USB-A port in use at the same time, and both devices charged quickly and consistently. No slowdowns, no weird drops in speed. Even better, the charger itself stayed cool—just slightly warm at most, which is impressive for something pushing that much power.
Build quality is exactly what I expect from Anker: solid and well-made. It doesn’t feel flimsy or cheap. The carbon-fiber texture gives it a slightly premium look, and the subtle blue LED ring is actually useful at night. It makes the ports easy to find without turning your car interior into a mini light show.
For my setup, I paired it with a short 1-foot USB-C cable. That works perfectly with my MagSafe car mount and keeps everything clean and clutter-free. Just keep in mind that the short cable is ideal for the driver’s side—it won’t really reach passengers comfortably.
Bottom line: This is a powerful, reliable, and thoughtfully designed car charger. It delivers fast charging even under load, handles two devices without breaking a sweat, and feels built to last. If you’ve got modern devices and want something dependable, this one is absolutely worth picking up.
