Apple's New 100W USB-C Charger vs Anker 100W: Which Should You Buy in Pakistan?

August 4, 2026

Higher-wattage GaN chargers are becoming the new standard for people who charge a MacBook, iPad, and iPhone off one outlet. Here's how to think about a 100W-class charger decision, and what to buy today depending on your actual power needs.

When You Actually Need 100W

100W-class chargers matter for:

Charging a MacBook Pro at full speed while simultaneously fast-charging a phone or tablet
Multi-device desks where one outlet needs to cover a laptop, phone, and accessory
Anyone who travels with a MacBook and wants to leave the bulky stock brick at home

If you're only charging an iPhone or iPad, 100W is overkill — a 20–45W charger covers that need more efficiently and at a fraction of the price.

What to Prioritize in a 100W Charger

Per-port wattage distribution: multi-port 100W chargers split power across ports, so check how much each port actually delivers when multiple devices are connected.
Thermal management: sustained high-wattage output generates real heat — GaN chargers with better thermal design maintain speed longer.
Smart display / status feedback: live wattage readouts help you confirm you're actually getting full speed, not just rated speed.

Available Now at AvaNext: The Anker Prime 160W

While a 100W-specific unit isn't currently in our catalog, the Anker Prime 160W 3-Port USB-C GaN Charger with Smart Display covers — and exceeds — the same use case: a single compact charger capable of powering a MacBook, iPhone, and a third device simultaneously, with a live smart display showing real-time wattage per port.

For lighter multi-device needs, these also handle laptop-plus-phone charging well:

The Verdict

If your setup genuinely demands 100W+ output across multiple devices, the Anker Prime 160W is the strongest option currently stocked at AvaNext — it covers the 100W use case with room to spare. For single-device or lighter dual-device charging, a 40–45W charger from either brand is the more cost-effective choice.
