Anker 323 (A2735) 52.5W USB C Car Charger Review: Fast Charging Power on the Go
For weeks now, the Anker 323 (A2735) 52.5W USB C Car Charger has been my constant companion on countless commutes and road trips. This review details my experience with this dual-port charger, focusing on its real-world performance and overall value.
The Anker 323 boasts a sleek, compact design that doesn’t overwhelm the car’s lighter socket. Its dual-port functionality – one USB-C and one USB-A – allows simultaneous charging of two devices. The advertised PowerIQ 3.0 technology promises optimal charging speeds for a wide range of devices, and the inclusion of Activeshield 2.0 is a reassuring safety feature.

Charging speeds were impressive. My iPhone 15 Pro consistently reached 50% charge in under 30 minutes, often closer to the advertised 25 minutes. Simultaneously charging my Samsung Galaxy S23 while using the USB-A port resulted in slightly slower but still respectable charging speeds for both devices. The Activeshield 2.0 technology seemed to work effectively; the charger never felt excessively hot, even during extended use.
I tested the Anker 323 with several other devices, including older iPhones and Android phones, and it consistently delivered fast charging for all.
One minor observation: the included instructions could be improved. While the charger’s functionality is intuitive, more detailed instructions on optimal charging practices for various device types would have been beneficial.
Pros:
- Fast charging speeds for multiple devices.
- Compact and convenient design.
- Effective heat management.
- Wide compatibility with various devices.
Cons:
- Instructions could be more comprehensive.
The Anker 323 (A2735) 52.5W USB C Car Charger is a highly effective and convenient solution for fast charging on the go. Its dual-port functionality, fast charging capabilities, and robust safety features make it a strong contender in the crowded car charger market. While the instructions could be slightly better, the overall performance and value make this a worthwhile purchase. I wholeheartedly recommend it.
