Anker is merging its three brands—Anker, eufy, and soundcore—into a single umbrella brand, Anker, effective immediately. At IFA 2026 in Berlin (September 4–8), the company will therefore not only showcase a new, unified brand identity but also more than a dozen new products, ranging from an actively cooled power bank to its first in-house hearing aid and a robotic lawn mower capable of covering areas up to 15,000 square meters. We’ve gone through the entire announcement and summarized what’s truly new, how much it costs, and when it’s coming.
In a nutshell
- Anker, eufy, and soundcore are merging into a single brand: Anker.
- New charging solutions: a power bank with active fan cooling, a bedside charging station, a laptop charger with battery-saving mode, and a USB-C hub with ten ports.
- Anker is entering the hearing aid market with its own Thus AI chip.
- Four new headphone models, a radar-based sleep lab, and two new robotic lawn mowers, including one capable of covering up to 15,000 square meters.
- A local AI hub called MindBase for the smart home, two new vacuum and mopping robots, and a textile printer for creatives.
One brand for everything: Why Anker, eufy, and soundcore are merging
As recently as IFA 2025, Anker had organized its product portfolio into three brands: Anker for charging, eufy for the smart home, and soundcore for audio and video. A year later, the company is taking this a step further. All three are now merging into a single brand simply called Anker. Company founder and CEO Steven Yang explains this move by citing the increasing integration of technologies: “Separate category brands made sense when the product lines were still distinct from one another. That’s no longer the case today. One brand, one promise: Ultimate Innovation, now unifying everything we make.”
For customers, little will change in their day-to-day lives for the time being. Anker explicitly emphasizes that warranties and customer service will remain unchanged. The transition is taking place gradually: New products will bear only the Anker name from the start, while older devices will retain their previous branding until they are phased out of the product line. The most visible sign of the new strategy is the first Anker Store in Germany, which will open during the IFA in Berlin.
Charging Will Be Faster, Cooler, and Smarter
Anyone who regularly charges on the go is familiar with the problem: as soon as a power bank gets warm, it throttles its output. This is exactly where Anker comes in with its new generation of charging products. Our review of the Anker Solix PowerDock also demonstrates just how well-thought-out Anker’s charging solutions have become.
Anker MagGo Power Bank 2 Pro: The First Magnetic Power Bank with a Fan
According to the manufacturer, the Anker MagGo Power Bank 2 Pro is the world’s first magnetic power bank with active fan cooling. It charges smartphones wirelessly via the Qi 2.2 standard at up to 25 watts, keeping the device temperature at a maximum of 36 degrees Celsius, while comparable models without cooling get significantly warmer as their performance drops. A smart display shows charging power and temperature in real time. Via the USB-C port, the power bank delivers up to 45 watts to other devices, and with the same input power, it can be charged to 80 percent in 52 minutes.
The Power Bank 2 Pro will go on sale at the end of September for 109.99 euros at Anker and Amazon. Until September 16, it’s available for pre-order for 87.99 euros with the code 2026MAGGO.
Anker MagStand Charging Station: Keep Your Nightstand Tidy
The Anker MagStand Charging Station combines wireless charging at up to 25 watts (Qi 2.2), a retractable 60-watt cable, and an additional 30-watt USB-C port in a single charging station for your nightstand or desk. Two modes are designed to preserve battery life over the long term: Fast Mode charges at maximum speed, while Care Mode keeps the smartphone at around 37 degrees Celsius overnight, thereby reducing thermal stress. In addition to charging power and remaining time, the integrated smart display also shows the weather, time, or your own photos.
Pre-orders have already begun, and shipping will start in mid-October at a price of 99.99 euros.
Anker Laptop Charger Pro: A Charger with “Memory” for Your Laptop
The Anker Laptop Charger Pro isn’t just about speed—it’s primarily about preserving the battery life of the connected laptop. The USB-C port delivers up to 100 watts and charges from 0 to 50 percent in 30 minutes without any drop in performance. What makes it special: According to Anker, the charger automatically detects the connected laptop model and adjusts the charging curve accordingly. Current Macs are fully recognized, and most Windows laptops also benefit from this feature after installing a desktop app.
A tap on the Smart Display activates Care Mode, which limits the charge level to a customizable value (80 percent by default). According to Anker, this extends the laptop battery’s lifespan by more than 40 percent. Measuring 6.2 x 5.5 x 3.4 centimeters and featuring a foldable plug, the device remains compact enough for travel. The charger is available for pre-order starting September 17 for 59.99 euros, with shipping set to begin in mid-October.
Anker USB-C Hub: Ten Ports and a Special Treat for Gamers
The new Anker USB-C Hub adds ten ports to your workspace and, thanks to HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4, supports video output at up to 4K at 144 hertz on a single monitor or 4K at 120 hertz on two monitors simultaneously. A smart display shows the status of the ports and the duration of the active screen transmission. The hub will be available starting September 14 for 99.99 euros, followed a week later by a special edition in collaboration with the game Valorant for 109.99 euros.
Anker Enters the Hearing Aid Market
In addition to charging, Anker cites health as its second strategic focus and is taking a step one wouldn’t necessarily expect from a power bank manufacturer: entering the hearing aid market. The first hearing aids are set to run on the company’s proprietary Thus AI chip and will benefit from established Anker technologies such as noise cancellation, long battery life, and fast charging. Anker has not yet disclosed specific prices, a release date, or technical details about the hearing aids themselves; further information is expected shortly.
New Headphones: AeroClip 2, Space 2 Pro, Liberty Buds 2, and Sleep Earbuds 4
The Thus chip isn’t just appearing in hearing aids at IFA 2026—it’s also being incorporated into four new headphone models.
Anker Soundcore AeroClip 2: Open-Ear Headphones with Whisper Mode
The Anker Soundcore AeroClip 2 features an open-ear design but still isolates the voice from ambient noise during phone calls. In “Whisper Mode,” even soft speech ensures the other party remains clearly audible—handy for phone calls in the office or on the train. According to soundcore, the company analyzed more than 2,000 ear profiles to optimize the fit; the ergonomic design is said to be suitable for 99 percent of all ears. A 12-millimeter driver and the LDAC codec are designed to deliver a detailed soundstage despite the open-ear design. Battery life is up to eight hours of music playback; with the charging case, it extends to up to 32 hours; a ten-minute quick charge provides four additional hours. Wireless charging and Bluetooth 6.0 round out the features.
The AeroClip 2 will be available starting September 22 for 179.99 euros. A Pro version will follow in January 2027, which starts audio recordings with a tap, stores up to eight hours of them locally, and creates automatic summaries on demand.
Anker soundcore Space 2 Pro: Peace and Quiet for the Open-Plan Office
With the Anker soundcore Space 2 Pro, soundcore combines the Thus chip with a comprehensive microphone architecture in an over-ear headphone for the first time: Six microphones isolate the voice during phone calls, while a total of eight microphones analyze the surroundings at up to 384 kilohertz and continuously adjust the active noise cancellation. A 35-millimeter rigid-flex diaphragm, together with HearID 5.0—which is based on a personalized hearing test—is designed to tailor sound reproduction to the user’s individual hearing capabilities.
With active ANC, the battery lasts up to 30 hours; without ANC, up to 60 hours; a five-minute charge provides eight additional hours of use. Bluetooth 6.1 handles the connection. The Space 2 Pro will be available starting September 22 for 199.99 euros.
Anker Soundcore Liberty Buds 2: The Thus Chip Enters the Mid-Range Market
Following the Liberty 5 Pro and 5 Pro Max, the Thus chip makes its way into the mid-range audio segment with the Anker Soundcore Liberty Buds 2. Eight sensors are designed to reliably transmit the user’s voice during phone calls, while 9.2-millimeter drivers are used for music playback. The Liberty Buds 2 will also launch on September 22; Anker has not yet announced a price.
Anker Soundcore Sleep Earbuds 4: Sleep More Peacefully Without Missing the Fire Alarm
The Anker Soundcore Sleep Earbuds 4 are specifically designed for nighttime use. The improved noise cancellation reduces traffic noise, air conditioning, and voices from the next room by three to five decibels more effectively in the sleep-relevant frequency range between 200 and 800 hertz compared to the previous model, making these sounds significantly quieter. To ensure a comfortable fit, Soundcore analyzed a database of over 10,000 ear shapes. An AI system also detects snoring sounds and masks them with individually tailored sounds.
The safety feature is an interesting solution: The charging case detects sounds like a fire alarm and automatically activates the headphones’ transparency mode, ensuring that important signals aren’t drowned out by noise cancellation. In standard mode, the battery lasts up to ten hours. Bluetooth and ANC are active before falling asleep, while the earbuds play locally stored content during sleep. The package includes five pairs of silicone tips and three pairs of ear wings. The Sleep Earbuds 4 will be available in October for 249.99 euros; a Pro version with a display will follow next year.
Anker SleepLab Pro: A Sleep Lab Without a Ring or Wristband
With the Anker SleepLab Pro, Anker is launching a device in early 2027 that tracks sleep completely contactlessly. An automatically extending 60-gigahertz radar system measures sleep phases, breathing, heart rate, and movements—all without a smartwatch, ring, or sensor on the body. The next morning, the Anker app provides a sleep report.
Based on this data, the device generates customized sound and light therapies instead of playing the same background sounds over and over. Anker calls the underlying technology “Personalized Acoustic Beats”: It combines sleep sounds with very subtle volume fluctuations that, according to the manufacturer, are about five times more effective than traditional binaural beats. A ring of RGB lights and warm-white LEDs create the right atmosphere, while two 7.5-watt speakers provide the sound; users can stream their own content via Bluetooth. Those who continue to use a smartwatch for sleep tracking can opt for the more affordable Anker SleepLab instead, which offers the same light and sound features without the radar system.
Two new robotic lawn mowers: S2 Max and E15 Gen2
Anker eufy S2 Max Robotic Lawn Mower: 15,000 square meters without a boundary wire
The Anker eufy S2 Max robotic lawn mower is Anker’s first robotic lawn mower developed entirely in-house and is intended to showcase the future of lawn care. It operates completely autonomously, without any boundary wires or an RTK antenna, and mows right up to the edge thanks to an automatically extending mowing arm.
All-wheel drive handles slopes of up to 38 degrees, and according to Anker, the S2 Max can map and mow areas of up to 15,000 square meters. A typical single-family home lot is usually a few hundred square meters, so the device is clearly aimed at large properties and commercial areas. The market launch is planned for spring 2027, with further details to follow before then.
Anker eufy E15 Gen2 Robotic Mower: More Coverage, More “Eyes” in the Garden
If you don’t want to wait until 2027, the Anker eufy E15 Gen2 robotic mower is already available—a model that doesn’t require a boundary wire, an RTK antenna, or time-consuming manual mapping. The advanced TrueVision technology maps the garden in real time during the first run, detecting more than 500 different types of obstacles. On a single battery charge, the E15 Gen2 mows up to 1,000 square meters—a quarter more than the first generation—thanks to a more powerful motor, sturdier blades, and updated software.
An exciting feature is its integration with the eufy ecosystem: Compatible eufy security cameras detect people, animals, or other movements in the yard and can notify the robotic mower to pause. Our review of the eufy SoloCam S220 gives a first impression of how well eufy’s camera technology detects such movements. The E15 Gen2 will go on sale at the end of September for 1,399 euros.
Anker MindBase: A Local AI Hub That Keeps Data at Home
With Anker MindBase, Anker is introducing an AI hub for the home that explicitly focuses on local processing: decisions are made directly on-site, and personal data remains stored within your own four walls. The platform consists of three components. EasyOmni Link connects Anker devices and Matter-compatible products from other manufacturers; the TrueSmart Agent handles household tasks using specialized AI agents; and the system includes up to 48 terabytes of expandable local storage.
The first product on this platform is the Anker MindBase Security Kit. It consists of the eufy TrackLight Cam S1, which combines an auto-tracking 4K camera with a light, and the eufy Video Doorbell S4 with a 180-degree panoramic view of the entryway. A Smart Security Shield uses dual-radar technology to detect movement from unknown individuals and identify known family members from up to 30 meters away. MindBase is also designed to integrate with many existing eufy security devices: According to Anker, footage from the HomeBase S380—which we’ve already reviewed in detail—can be easily transferred to the new hub. The price and exact launch date for the Security Kit have not yet been announced.
Vacuuming and Mopping: eufy C30 Edge and Hydrojet E35
Anker is also stepping up its game in the mid-range and high-end segments for vacuum and mop robots.
Anker eufy C30 Edge Vacuuming and Mopping Robot
The C30 Edge delivers 35,000 pascals of suction power; the AeroTurbo 2.0 technology is designed to maintain consistent suction over a long period while also reducing the maintenance required for the dust bin and filters. For mopping, two rotating pads with 10 newtons of contact pressure are used; they extend up to 76 millimeters to clean along furniture and baseboards.
A roller brush mounted on one side is designed to prevent hair from getting caught in it, while the side brush automatically reverses its rotation direction as needed to loosen trapped hair. The C30 Edge will go on sale at the end of September for 699 euros. We explain the key factors to consider when buying a robot vacuum in our guide with purchasing tips for robot vacuums.
Anker eufy Hydrojet E35 Vacuuming and Mopping Robot
The Hydrojet E35 also features 35,000 pascals of suction power, but uses AeroTurbo Multi-Cyclone technology, which separates dust and air more efficiently and is designed to keep filters clean longer. The HydroJet mopping system handles wet cleaning: A continuously rotating roller is constantly supplied with fresh water throughout the cleaning process while simultaneously being cleared of collected dirt.
The extendable mopping roller and side brush reach even edges and corners, and the robot automatically clears obstacles and door thresholds up to 30 millimeters high. After cleaning, the all-in-one station takes over: it washes the mopping roller with hot water, automatically empties the dust bin, and refills the cleaning solution on its own. The HydroJet E35 will be available starting in late September for 999 euros.
Anker eufyMake Fabric Printer: From Design to Your Own T-Shirt
For creative types, Anker introduces the Anker eufyMake Fabric Printer —a compact textile printer that can switch between direct-to-garment (DTG) and direct-to-film (DTF) printing, allowing it to print on both finished garments and other materials. According to Anker, DTG mode produces Pantone-certified color gradients while maintaining up to 90 percent breathability of the fabric, without the typical plastic feel of many textile prints. DTF mode is suitable for cotton, polyester, and other materials and offers over ten special effects, ranging from glitter to three-dimensional puff printing.
An “Always Ready Self-Cleaning System” is designed to reduce maintenance requirements, and an integrated heat press operating at 160 degrees Celsius eliminates the need for a second device. The CMYK+WW six-color system uses two white channels, and large ink tanks are designed to lower costs to around 0.30 euros per print. We’ve previously tested an earlier textile printer from the brand, the eufyMake E1, and the new Fabric Printer clearly builds on that concept. The market launch is scheduled for the first quarter of 2027; a price has not yet been set.

Conclusion: At IFA 2026, Anker is focusing on a single brand and significantly picking up the pace
Anker is using IFA 2026 to showcase two things at once: a streamlined brand structure and a rather packed product portfolio. The shift from three brands to a single one is more of an organizational move that, for now, won’t make much of a difference to customers. What’s more interesting is just how broadly Anker has diversified: charging technology remains the foundation, but with hearing aids, a radar-based sleep lab, and a robotic lawn mower capable of covering 15,000 square meters, the portfolio now extends far beyond power banks. Initial tests of the individual devices will have to show whether the shared Thus chip actually delivers on its promises in headphones, hearing aids, and the MindBase hub.
