When you plug one in, the screen will briefly display your device's name, then show how much power is being delivered and its battery level. But the charger is limited to Apple hardware and only recognizes a limited number of devices, including iPhone 15 and later models and iPad models from 2020 onward."
"The latest Anker 45-watt Nano charger, announced in January, which remains one of the smallest 45-watt chargers on the market, adds a full color screen displaying an animated character and a smattering of details about the device you're charging.

The Anker 45-watt Nano charger is one of the smallest 45W chargers and includes a full-color, roughly 1-inch-wide screen that displays an animated character and charging details. The screen briefly shows a connected device's name, delivered power, and battery level when compatible hardware is plugged in. Compatibility is limited to Apple devices, including iPhone 15 and later models and iPad models from 2020 onward; iPhone 16 Pro and iPad 10 are recognized. The display can be useful for monitoring power draw but reads more like a marketing gimmick for most consumers. Rotating prongs and the compact design provide stronger reasons to upgrade.
