ASUS today demonstrated its lead in the next-gen networking era, with the announcement of preorders opening for the ROG Rapture GT-BN98 series in the GCC region.
The new MagGo Power Bank 2 Pro delivers 25W wireless charging with SnapCool active cooling, alongside the new Anker Nano Smart Display Charger

Anker Innovations today announced the UAE launch of the Anker MagGo Power Bank 2 Pro, bringing faster and cooler wireless charging to consumers who increasingly rely on their phones throughout the day.
First unveiled at IFA 2026 in Berlin earlier this month, the new MagGo Power Bank 2 Pro combines 25W magnetic wireless charging, SnapCool active cooling, a smart display and fast 45W recharging in a compact 10,000mAh power bank designed for everyday use. The product received five ‘Best of IFA’ honours, including recognition from MakeUseOf, Macworld and BGR.

Whether commuting across the city, travelling, working between meetings or simply spending a long day away from a power outlet, MagGo Power Bank 2 Pro is designed to make fast charging easier without giving up the convenience of wireless power.
“Consumers today expect charging to keep pace with the way they live — fast, mobile and always connected. With MagGo Power Bank 2 Pro, we are bringing together speed, smarter temperature management and greater visibility in a product designed for everyday use. The UAE is an important market for Anker, and this launch reflects our focus on making advanced charging technology more practical and intuitive for consumers across the region,” said Jeffrey Liu, General Manager MEA, Anker.


MagGo Power Bank 2 Pro delivers up to 25W Qi2.2 magnetic wireless charging, bringing wireless charging much closer to the pace consumers are used to from a cable. In Anker testing, an iPhone 17 Pro reached approximately 25% charge in 10 minutes and 50% in 25 minutes, closely matching the charging curve of a 20W wired charger.
For users, that means less time waiting around for a battery top-up and more freedom to simply snap the phone onto the power bank and keep moving.

Faster wireless charging can generate more heat, which in turn can cause a phone to slow down the amount of power it accepts. Anker developed SnapCool™ to tackle that problem. The system combines intelligent cooling, dual air channels and a graphene heat-spreading structure to continuously move heat away while the device is charging. Under Anker’s test conditions, the back of the power bank remained below 36°C during charging.
For consumers in the UAE and wider GCC, where devices are frequently used on the move and in warmer environments, better heat management also brings a practical everyday benefit.
Separately, the MagGo Power Bank 2 Pro has earned the SGS Premium Performance Mark with an A+ Rating for ultra-fast charging and heat dissipation.

A built-in smart display gives users live information including charging status, battery level, battery health and temperature, without needing to open an app. The integrated stand can be adjusted from 0° to 80°, making it easy to keep a phone upright for video calls, entertainment or desk use while charging. It can also fold completely flat when not in use and has been tested for 5,000 opening and closing cycles.
Users can also switch wireless charging off and simply use it as a phone stand when they do not need power.
With up to 45W USB-C input, MagGo Power Bank 2 Pro can recharge from zero to 80% in approximately 52 minutes in Anker testing — up to 1.5 times faster than the 30W input commonly found on comparable products. Its 10,000mAh capacity is packed into a compact form designed for everyday carrying, whether in a work bag, handbag or carry-on.
Anker is also introducing the Anker Nano Smart Display Charger, a compact 45W Max wall charger designed for users who want more visibility and control over how their devices charge. Its built-in smart display provides live charging information, while the charger can recognise the connected device brand and adjust charging accordingly. It also offers folding prongs for portability, TÜV-certified Care Mode for overnight charging and OTA updates for future compatibility.
It also pairs naturally with the MagGo Power Bank 2 Pro, providing a fast way to recharge the power bank through USB-C before heading out again. Both products bring charging information directly onto the device through their integrated smart displays.
The Anker MagGo Power Bank 2 Pro is available in the UAE from October 7 in four colours: Phantom Gray, Starlight Silver, Polar Night Blue and trendy Burgundy Red, priced at AED 349.
The Anker Nano Smart Display Charger is available priced at AED 119.
Both products will be available through the anker e-Store and select authorized retailers across the UAE.
