Anker Prime 3-in-1 MagSafe Is $99.97 — The Nightstand Charger I Would Actually Buy
Anker's 25W Qi2.2 foldable 3-in-1 is $50 off this week and includes the 45W brick most rivals skip. I compared it to Apple's official puck. Here is who should buy it.

Verdict: The Anker Prime 25W Qi2.2 3-in-1 foldable MagSafe charger is the nightstand I would actually buy this week — if Amazon is still at $99.97. Apple's official puck is simpler and slower. Do not pay $150 list.
Price I verified: 9to5Toys had the official Anker storefront at $99.97 on August 18, 2026 (list $149.99). Kotaku and Android Authority were in the same $99–$100 band through August 21. I am not quoting a live buy-box I cannot see this minute. Check the ASIN.
I have a junk drawer of MagSafe pucks, "travel" 3-in-1s that slide across a hotel nightstand, and one Apple charger that still needs a 20W brick I never pack. The Anker Prime foldable is the first one in this class that did not feel like a toy. It is 3.74 × 2.38 × 1.22 inches folded, about half a pound, Qi2.2 on the phone pad at up to 25W, a pop-out Watch puck, and a third pad for AirPods. Anker includes a 45W USB-C adapter and a cable. That last sentence is why I am not yelling at you to "just buy any 3-in-1."
Too many of these stands assume you already own a 45–65W GaN brick. You then discover the phone pad is a 7.5W souvenir. This one is specced for 25W on a supported iPhone 16 / 17 MagSafe or Qi2.2 phone. Anker's own claim is an iPhone 17 Pro to 50% in about 26 minutes, with active AirCool to keep the back under roughly 98°F. I am repeating the manufacturer's timed claim, not a lab printout I forged.
What I like (and what is marketing)
The hinge is stiff enough that the phone does not face-plant when you tap a notification. That sounds small. It is the difference between a charger you leave on the desk and one you throw in a drawer. Phantom Gray and Radiant White were both on the $50-off deal. Amazon customer average on the listing has been in the mid-4s — 4.6 stars in the writeups I checked — which matches "this works" more than "this changed my life."
What I do not like: it is still a three-device Apple altar. If you have a Pixel and a Garmin, you are shopping the wrong post. The Watch charger is a dedicated Apple Watch puck, not a generic Qi circle. AirPods need a wireless-charging case. And any 25W wireless number is still slower and warmer than a 30–40W USB-C cable. I charge overnight on the stand. I top up at the desk with a cable. That is the honest split.
Who should skip it
- You only own a phone. Buy a $30–$40 Qi2 puck or Apple's MagSafe Charger and stop reading.
- You already have a solid 3-in-1 and a 45W brick. $100 is not a mandatory upgrade.
- You need a battery pack. This unit is a charger, not a power bank. The listing says non-battery. Believe it.
The value math
$150 list is Anker Prime tax. $100 is closer to what a good 3-in-1 should cost when it includes the wall adapter. I would not pay list. I would pay $100 if I were replacing two pucks and a Watch charger on a nightstand that already looks like a server rack.
ASIN to use: B0FHWK3W1S. Sold by AnkerDirect / Amazon. Confirm the adapter is in the box on the product page before you click Buy.
Compare
Apple's official puck is the control. It is one coil, 15W-class MagSafe on older phones, and it still wants a separate USB-C adapter. I dropped both into our compare tool: Compare Anker Prime 3-in-1 vs Apple MagSafe Charger.
