Top Charging Devices and Portable Power Sources at CES 2026

Empowering users through advanced technology.

Charging Evolutions

Though CES is often associated with luxury televisions that stretch the budget, it has increasingly become a platform for innovative charging solutions. CES 2026 forewent the trend visible last year of integrating charging cables directly into devices. Instead, the newest chargers and power packs unveiled have become sturdier, lighter, more versatile, and visually appealing, even though some consumers are nostalgic for simplicity.

Let’s delve into our handpicked highlights of new chargers and power banks that made their debut at this year's CES gathering.

Featured Products at CES 2026

Is there a necessity for every charger to include a screen? Likely not, yet Anker justifies the choice with unique capabilities in its $39.99 charger. This device identifies late-model iPhones and iPads, providing extra information like battery life status and device temperature through appealing animations. While featuring just one USB-C port, the Nano Charger allows prongs to fold and rotate by 180 degrees for easy access.

Most trio wireless chargers cater exclusively to Apple Watches. However, Belkin’s latest design supports a spectrum of wearables, including Samsung and Google Pixel watches. This stand allows for customizing with your charger puck, fitting neatly in a back slot reinforced with spacers from the kit. Retailing at $64.99, it includes a 25W Qi2.2 phone charging pad and an additional slot for earbuds.

If as petite as promotional visuals suggest, this device might become a travel essential for 2026. Boasting a compact 10,000mAh battery, resembling a small earbud case, it supports 45W charging via USB-C, accommodating laptops, and features dual device charging with an inbuilt cable.

Don't fancy a tactical keyboard anchoring your phone? This magnetic wireless battery bank offers a neat solution. The 2150mAh battery comes with a slide-out keyboard easily connecting via Bluetooth, only extending when desired, and compatible with any Qi-adapted phone. At $109, with preorder discounts at $79, it hits the shelves this spring.

Imagining a wireless charger that doesn't even look like one is now reality. Styled as a sophisticated leather tray with metallic accents, customizable for any aesthetic, this device lets you place daily essentials beside a 15W Qi phone charger with an extra USB port, powered by an included 36W source.

Eschew the bulky power strip for Anker's $69.99 genius desktop edge-mounted hub. It offers dual AC plugs, two USB-As, and two 70W USB-C slots accessible from your desk, while four extra AC sockets lie discreetly under the surface.

Revitalize your workspace with a charger that is more than utilitarian; this hub doubles as an interactive station. Though priced under $300 at its crowdfunding release, it powers iPhone Qi2-compatible devices with three USB-C ports, a USB-A, and even integrates with Slack while activating an AI with animated eyes that follow its mount and tilt across the desk.

Belkin’s $99.99 quintessential power bank, with a neat display and 30W delivery via USB-C and detachable PopSocket compatibility, ensures that even when in use, your phone can accommodate a wallet or grip attachment.

For those demanding more, the April launch of this $259.99 charger won’t disappoint, featuring a tiltable Qi2.2 pad and a myriad of connectivity options. Two HDMI, several USB varieties, ethernet, and card slots complement the 160W output, allowing simultaneous multi-device charging.

Not seven months since the release of Belkin’s Switch 2 charging case, an upgraded version is on the horizon. The updated model eliminates top-case opening for charging, unveils an external port, and shows power levels on a new display, streamlining the charging experience.
