If you’re still charging your phone with whatever random wall wart came in the box three phones ago, or your laptop with the bulky brick it came with, now’s a great time to upgrade. Advances like GaN chargers have led to smaller, faster USB-C chargers for phones and laptops alike, and Qi2 gives iPhones (and maybe soon some Android phones?) MagSafe-speed charging at lower prices. And with Prime Day deals available now, you can save quite a bit and charge in less time, too.

There is a sizable selection of charging devices on sale, whether you’re looking to outfit a home office or your coffee office. Nearly all of the brands we trust have something on offer, including Anker, Belkin, Ugreen, and Satechi.

There will probably be too many for us to mention here in one go, but keep checking back for the latest as we’ll be plugged in all throughout Prime Day. Don’t forget to check our Prime Day guide, where you can learn how to sign up for Amazon Prime and all the benefits you get for doing so, how to find the best deals, and even figure out whether you can get price matches at your favorite retailers.

Belkin’s triple charging stand achieves 15W MagSafe wireless iPhone charging speeds and keeps your phone and Apple Watch elevated for easy reading.

  • You can get Belkin’s 15W MagSafe wireless charger for $19.99 ($10 off) at Amazon. The puck-shaped charger snaps to the back of your MagSafe iPhone. It has a 6.6-foot cable and a built-in kickstand that lets you prop the phone up horizontally.
  • Belkin’s 40W Dual-Port USB-C charger is down to $22.98 (about $7 off) at Amazon. Its smaller size and foldable plug make it easy to slip in any bag or pocket.

There are also two retractable three-foot USB-C cables drawing from its 100W capacity, and the five-foot power cord gives you some room to pull it away from the wall a bit.

Anker’s 100-watt GaN II charger can charge up to three devices at once: two USB-C and one USB-A.

  • Amazon is selling the 30W Anker 511 charging adapter for $12.99 ($10 off) for Prime Day. It has just a single USB-C port and won’t charge bigger devices like laptops at sufficient speeds, but its petite size and collapsible plug make it handy for travel.
  • A 65W UGreen travel charger has dropped to $25.19 (about $15 off) at Amazon. It manages to fit two USB-C ports and a USB-A port into its petite frame, and a foldable plug also helps keep it compact.

  • You can pick up Apple’s 35W Dual USB-C charger for $44.99 ($15 off) at Amazon, which is only one dollar more than the record Black Friday price. You can charge not just your iPad, but also iPhones, AirPods, and anything else you can find an appropriate USB-C cable for.
  • ESR’s Qi2 MagSafe car mount charger is down to $21.49 (about $13 off) at Amazon when clipping a coupon. You can just clip it onto your car’s air vent, then mount your MagSafe-compatible iPhone for a quick charge.

The best Prime Day deals on power banks

With 27,650mAh of capacity, Anker’s 250W Prime Power Bank can charge smaller devices like smartphones and cameras multiple times over; it even has enough capacity and speed to satiate laptops and tablets.

  • You can get a 10,000mAh Anker Nano power bank for $31.99 ($8 off) at Amazon. It supports 30W charging across one USB-C and one USB-A port. The built-in USB-C cable lets you charge devices without extra wires to trip over, and there’s an integrated display to let you know your remaining capacity and time to charge.
  • The Anker 522 MagGo battery is down to $34.99 ($15 off) at Amazon. The magnetic power bank touts wireless Qi charging, a folding kickstand, and a convenient USB-C port for wired charging. Just be warned: you won’t get Qi2 speeds here, as it’s limited to 7.5W.

Anker’s Qi2-enabled MagGo Power Bank (10K) can supply 15W charging speeds to any MagSafe-compatible iPhone. It also supports wired 27W USB-C charging and comes with an integrated kickstand that lets you prop it up on a desk or nightstand.

  • You can get a 10,000mAh Baseus MagSafe-compatible power bank for $25.49 (about $20 off) at Amazon. It’s limited to the slower 7.5W charging speed of the original Qi standard, but you can charge at up to 20W with USB-C Power Delivery, and it supports passthrough charging to top up the power bank and your iPhone at the same time.
  • Belkin’s 5,000mAh BoostCharge wireless power bank has dropped to $28.99 ($31 off) at Amazon, nearly matching its all-time low. The MagSafe power bank has a handy kickstand, but doesn’t offer Qi2 speeds. It could be a suitable alternative if you don’t want to pay double for the faster options that have recently come out.
