If your workspace is a tangle of dongles and adapters, help is at hand. Anker’s clever Nano USB-C Hub, a compact 6-in-1 accessory that first launched in the UK last December, is now arriving on the digital shelves of major European retailers, offering a streamlined solution for professionals and students on the go.
Originally introduced as the removable heart of the larger Anker Nano Docking Station, this standalone hub is making waves for its minimalist design and maxi port selection. It’s landing just in time for those looking to declutter their desk or supercharge their mobile setup without the bulk.
Ports Galore in a Pocket-Sized Design
So, what does this tiny powerhouse offer? Anker has packed a surprising range of connectivity into its sleek dark metallic gray chassis, which measures a mere 41.9 x 80.0 x 11.9 mm and weighs just over 36 grams.
On the front, you’ll find a handy combination of USB-C and USB-A ports, both supporting data transfers at 5 Gbps. The USB-C port also delivers 7.5W of power, perfect for charging accessories like earbuds or a smartphone, while the USB-A port offers 4.5W. Right beside them are SD and TF (microSD) card slots, leveraging the UHS-I protocol for read speeds up to 104 MB/s—a boon for photographers and content creators.
The real magic happens at the rear and side. The upstream USB-C port connects to your laptop, capable of passthrough charging up to a hefty 85W and supporting blazing-fast 10 Gbps data speeds. For power, a dedicated USB-C PD-IN port on the side can accept up to 100W from your charger, ensuring your laptop stays powered up even with all ports in use.
Rounding out the features is an HDMI port, capable of driving an external monitor at a crisp 4K resolution with a 60Hz refresh rate—ideal for presentations, multitasking, or simply enjoying media on a larger screen.
Availability and a Prime Discount
Good news for shoppers in mainland Europe: the Anker Nano USB-C Hub (6-in-1, 5Gbps) is now available for purchase. You can find it on Amazon in countries like Spain, Italy, and Germany with a listed price of €29.99.
For Amazon Prime members, there’s an enticing launch offer. A €5 discount is currently being applied at checkout, bringing the final price down to a very compelling €24.99. This makes it an affordable upgrade for enhancing laptop connectivity.

The expansion follows a successful debut in the UK and taps into the growing demand for portable, high-performance docking solutions. As remote and hybrid work models persist, accessories that simplify connectivity without sacrificing desk space are more valuable than ever.
The Verdict
Anker’s Nano Hub strikes a clever balance. It delivers the essential ports most users need daily—HDMI, card readers, and USB-A/C—in a form factor that barely adds to your laptop bag’s weight. The high-speed data support and strong passthrough charging are significant perks for the price.
For now, the focus remains on the European market. It remains to be seen when—or if—Anker plans to release this particular model in the United States. In the meantime, European customers have early access to one of the neatest cable-management solutions to hit the market this year.
