Anker's Laptop Charger Pro Applies Device-Specific Charging Curves to Slow Battery Degradation

At IFA 2026, Anker unveiled the Laptop Charger Pro, which identifies the connected laptop model and applies a device-specific charging curve to slow battery degradation. This capability has appeared in OEM-branded chargers for years but rarely in third-party units, which typically rely on USB-PD negotiation alone. No pricing or availability was announced.
