Anker has launched a new charging cable in the Chinese market called the Anker Nano Fast Dirt-Resistant Cable, model A8060, as an economical alternative that shares many features with the previous Anker Zolo cable.

The cable comes with a braided outer layer that resists dust and dirt accumulation, giving it flexibility and durability that allows it to withstand more than 10,000 repeated bends. The company offers the cable in two length options, 1 meter and 1.8 meters, with four colors including black, white, pink, and blue.

The difference lies in the maximum power output capability, as the new cable supports charging power of up to 140W. According to Anker's data, the cable can charge an iPhone 17 up to 50% in 20 minutes and charge a MacBook Pro 16 with M3 chip up to 50% within 25 minutes. The cable is also certified by the USB-IF organization and supports various fast charging protocols such as PD 3.1, PPS, and QC, and contains a smart e-Marker chip that protects devices and regulates power consumption by activating slow charging once the battery level exceeds 80%.

The price of the new Anker cable starts at 34.90 Chinese Yuan, equivalent to about $5.20, through local online stores. There is no confirmed information yet about the launch date or plans to release this model in global markets outside China.
