Premium power bank

Integrated stand
While recent iPhones should have no problem lasting all day on a single charge, it’s always worthwhile having a power bank to hand. That’s especially if you tend to take a lot of photos/videos or are busy gaming or watching the latest TikToks on your daily commute. And that’s where this pocketsized charger from Anker comes in.
Available in black or white and measuring a chunky 107.3x68.8x19.8mm and weighing 250g, it’ll charge your iPhone an extra 1.8 times – ensuring you have more than enough juice to power through your day.
As well as having a 10,000mAh capacity battery on board, the Anker A1564 comes with a Qi2-compatible MagSafe magnet so you can securely attach it to your iPhone. Plus, it has an integrated metal stand that’ll enable you to prop up your iPhone for movie viewing or gaming, or when using iOS 17’s StandBy mode.
Pocketable power
On the left side of the power bank, you’ll find a two-way USB-C port for charging both the power bank or your iPhone (using the 0.6m USB-C to USB-C cable supplied), while on the right there’s a colour Smart Display. This shows how much charge remains in the power bank and gives you an estimate (in hours and minutes) for how long it’ll last. The display automatically lights up when you connect
