Anker has unveiled a new 6-port gallium nitride desktop socket that can deliver up to 67W charging on its USB-C port. The Anker 6-in-1 GaN Desktop Socket has dual USB-A, USB-C, and AC ports. The 6-in-1 socket sports a minimalist design and is available in three colors.
Anker’s 6-in-1 GaN Desktop Socket has USB
ports distributed at the front side while the AC port is at the back. The six
ports are elegantly placed and the setup is tidy. The USB-C ports have a
maximum power output of 67W while the USB-A ports can deliver a maximum power
of 12W. There are several safety features in the gallium nitride socket and it
comes with the AI temperature control 2.0 technology. It also has 300J surge
protection as well as a more stable current flow.
The versatility and durability of the
6-in-1 gallium nitride socket could stand out in the crowded market. Putting
its 67W charging power in perspective, the Anker gallium nitride desktop socket
can fully charge the 14-inch MacBook Pro laptop in less than 90 minutes.
The product is available at a launch price
of 359 yuan (US$ 52) but will subsequently revert to its original price of 449
yuan (US$ 65). There are no details at this time on the global availability of the
product. The product can be purchased from JD.com and a discount scheme is
