Is this Anker’s first 140W wall charger with a screen?

An unboxing video shared on YouTube last week has our first hands-on look at a new 140W wall charger from Anker. It appears to be the first from the company to feature an integrated display that shows how much power is being drawn from each of its four USB ports.

Earlier this month, leaked details and an image of the charger were shared to the Anker subreddit by user joshuadwx. The Zolo wall charger will reportedly offer a maximum output of 140W shared across three USB-C ports and a single USB-A port. Two of its USB-C ports will be able to charge devices at up to 140W speeds if nothing else is plugged in, while the remaining USB-C and USB-A ports can deliver 40W and 33W of power, respectively.

At 350 grams, the added screen results in a charger that’s heavier than existing four-port chargers from the company, such as the smaller Anker 747 Charger (GaNPrime 150W), which also delivers more power.

The nine-minute unboxing video shared by Xiao Li TV seemingly confirms several of the charger’s features, including its 140W of total power delivery, folding prongs, the Zolo branding, the power output capabilities of each port, and that the screen will display a cute sleeping face when no power is being drawn.

The video also confirms that all of the USB ports are located on the downward-facing side of the Zolo. Anker has previously addressed issues with heavy chargers that struggle to stay plugged in to wall outlets by releasing redesigned versions featuring a center of gravity closer to the wall and textured prongs providing more grip.

Moving the ports to the underside of this charger is potentially another way to reduce the chance of it falling out of an outlet on its own.

There’s still no information on Anker’s planned pricing for the Zolo charger or when it will launch globally and in the US, although the leaked video seems to indicate it could debut soon.
