Title: Anker power bank with 12,000mAh and 130W falls to record-low price
Post by: Redaktion on September 24, 2024, 23:13:30
The Anker Prime can charge two devices simultaneously via USB-C and also sports a display that provides a bunch of useful information. Thanks to a big 34% discount, the Anker power bank has now returned to its lowest Amazon price ever.

and why would an iphone owner want a power bank that charges at 60W (per usb-c port at that!), when most iphone models charge at 10 - 30W tops, even the latest and bestest charges at 45W. Perhaps, given the size and weight (360g), iphone users might, just might, prefer to go for anker nano 10K, which charges at 30W anyway and weights about 50% less (220g) and costs about half?
Ah, I see, I'm missing a point completely, this text is 'infoad' that is an ad masking as 'information'.

And where exactly does the article say that "iPhone owners" in general should consider buying this power bank?

The article specifically mentions the iPhone 16 Pro Max, which charges at up to 45W and costs $1,200. Maybe, just maybe, those users should invest $20 more in a decent power bank that actually charges their new phone as quickly as possible while also leaving some headroom for future devices.
