Anker Prime Charger 100W 3-Port GaN (A2688) review: what the specs say

100W with a usable 65/35 split — fast-charges a 14-inch MacBook Pro. At $79.99, Anker's 2024 model sits at the premium end of the category — the USB Chargers we compare run from $19 to $119.99. It scores 7.8/10 overall, calculated from published specifications across 8 categories rather than from a subjective impression.

Its strongest showing is Build Quality at 9.0/10 — materials, heat handling and warranty. The weakest is Features at 6.5/10, which is the trade-off to weigh before buying: if that is the specification you care about most, one of the alternatives below will serve you better.

Worth knowing before you buy: the older A2343 is still on Amazon under a different ASIN with a worse 46/30/22.5W split — check the model number before buying; and not enough for a 16-inch MacBook Pro. Every specification on this page comes from Anker's own documentation or a verified retail listing — where a figure is not published, the table says so rather than estimating it.
