Anker just delivered the Black Friday deal tech enthusiasts have been waiting for. The company's flagship Laptop Power Bank - capable of charging everything from phones to MacBooks - dropped to $88 on Amazon, marking a 35% discount and matching the lowest price ever recorded. With 165-watt output and 25,000mAh capacity, it's becoming the season's must-have portable charger.
Black Friday shoppers just got their hands on the deal of the season. Anker's Laptop Power Bank - the 25,000mAh beast that's been topping portable charger lists all year - just hit $88 on Amazon, down from its usual $135 price tag. That's a 35% discount that matches the lowest price we've seen for this premium charger.
The timing couldn't be better. As remote work continues and travel picks up, portable power has become essential tech. This isn't just another phone charger - we're talking about a device that can juice up laptops, tablets, and multiple phones simultaneously with its whopping 165-watt output.
"I have spent years testing hundreds of portable chargers, and the Anker Laptop Power Bank is my current upgrade pick," tech reviewer Simon Hill wrote in WIRED's analysis. Hill's extensive testing included smartphones, tablets, and even a USB-C MacBook - all of which the power bank handled with ease.
What makes this charger special isn't just the capacity. Anker built in features that solve real problems: a retractable 2.3-foot USB-C cable means you're never stuck without the right cord, while a second braided cable doubles as a carry loop. The LED display shows everything from battery level to charging rates and even temperature - data that cheaper alternatives simply don't provide.
The 25,000mAh capacity puts it right at the sweet spot for air travel - powerful enough to charge most phones over four times, but still under airline limits for carry-on bags. And with 165 watts of total output, you can charge two laptops simultaneously if needed, or four devices at once (though total output drops to 130 watts with all ports in use).
Amazon's Black Friday pricing makes this particularly compelling. The power bank market has exploded with cheap alternatives, but most can't handle laptop charging or lack the durability for heavy use. At $88, Anker's premium option suddenly competes directly with mid-range options that offer far less capability.
The company's also offering the deal through its own website at the same price, giving buyers options. UK customers can snag it for £60 (down from £90), showing Anker is pushing this globally.
This represents a broader shift in the portable power market. As laptops move to USB-C charging and power requirements standardize, high-capacity banks like this one become universal solutions rather than niche products. The fact that it can hit 100% charge from empty in just two hours via its own fast-charging capability makes it practical for daily use.
For anyone still carrying multiple chargers or dealing with dead devices during travel, this Black Friday window might be the time to upgrade. Hill's testing confirms what the specs suggest - this really can replace multiple charging solutions with a single, premium device.
This Black Friday deal represents more than just a discount - it's Anker making premium portable power accessible to mainstream users. At $88, the Laptop Power Bank suddenly makes sense for anyone tired of juggling multiple chargers or dealing with dead devices. With its laptop-charging capability, built-in cables, and comprehensive display, it's the kind of upgrade that actually changes how you think about portable power. The question isn't whether this is a good deal - it's whether you can afford to keep living without this level of charging convenience.
