As the first European operator, DNA launched the high-quality and safe Anker charging products in 2018. DNA is now responding to the rapidly growing demand for Anker products by offering an expanded range in all DNA sales channels.

In the past, Anker products have only been available in DNA's online store and in outlets on a batch basis, but due to the rapidly growing demand, DNA is making a wide fast-charging range available in all DNA sales channels. The charging range includes cables, power banks and chargers. DNA will also bring other Anker products to its selections during 2021.

What is fast charging all about?

The power consumption of devices has increased and the operating needs have become even more diversified. Higher performance and, for example, playing games, videos and various wellness apps require efficient and fast charging. The way devices are charged has developed dramatically in recent years, but fast charging, for example, is still an unknown concept for a large proportion of consumers. People may not know whether their phones support fast charging or how to identify a fast charger that fits their device.

New phones and other devices increasingly support fast charging. This allows for plenty of uptime for devices with shorter charging.

"Fast charging is still an unfortunately little-used feature. The phone is an increasingly important part of everyday life and the battery needs to have power at all times. Thanks to fast charging, you don't have to wait at home to charge your phone to go to the store, for example. With fast charging, the battery is quickly powered, for example, during lunch break or when you put on your jogging gear," says Sami Aavikko, CEO of DNA Store.

"Consumers should understand that the old chargers and backup power sources at home do not support fast charging. There are really big differences between chargers, which is why it is worth getting them from a specialist store with the help of an expert," Aavikko continues.

Fast and safe Anker fast-charging products

Anker products have been successful around the world. This is no wonder, as these charging products have paid special attention to power, durability and safety.

Typically, to take advantage of fast charging, you need to purchase the manufacturer's original fast charger. Thanks to its PowerIQ technology, Anker offers manufacturer-independent fast charging for all phones and tablets, as well as for laptops charged with a USB-C connection.

Anker’s patented MultiProtect feature combines eleven different safety and protection technologies, preventing overheating, power spikes, overcharging and excess discharging, among other things. MultiProtect ensures safety for all devices charged and, most importantly, for their users.

"Over the past two years, we have noticed how the high quality, safety and fast charging of Anker products have made consumers excited about these products. I can still recommend the brand unreservedly for these very reasons. We are therefore very pleased to be able to offer Anker's leading charging solutions more widely in our own sales channels. Our Anker product range will grow even further in 2021," Aavikko says.

“We need experts in every market to help us continue steadily penetrating and expanding our presence, which is why we believe working with DNA will help us reach our expansion targets in 2021,” said Ethan Moon, Sales Director for Europe.

Kesälomalta paluu lisää yritysten tietoturvariskiä - huijarit hyödyntävät nyt useita viestintäkanavia11.8.2026 13:00:00 EEST | Tiedote

Tietojenkalastelut eivät tule työelämässä enää pelkästään sähköpostiin. DNA:n asiantuntijan mukaan verkkorikolliset hyödyntävät nykyisin useita kanavia rinnakkain, kuten Teamsin kaltaisia viestintäratkaisuja sekä pikaviestisovelluksia. Riski huijauksille korostuu erityisesti elokuussa, kun työntekijät palaavat kesälomilta kiireisen arjen ja täysien postilaatikoiden pariin.

Returning from summer holidays increases cybersecurity risks for businesses - Scammers now exploit multiple communication channels11.8.2026 13:00:00 EEST | Press release

Phishing attacks in the workplace are no longer limited to email. According to a DNA expert, cybercriminals today increasingly exploit multiple channels simultaneously, including collaboration platforms such as Microsoft Teams and various instant messaging applications. The risk of scams is particularly heightened in August, when employees return from summer holidays to busy workloads and overflowing inboxes.

DNA Oyj:n huhti–kesäkuun 2026 liiketoimintakatsaus: Tasainen kehitys jatkui kireässä markkinatilanteessa16.7.2026 08:30:00 EEST | Tiedote

Kireään kilpailutilanteeseen nähden kuluvan vuoden toinen neljännes oli DNA:lle taloudellisesti varsin hyvä. Huhti–kesäkuussa liikevaihto pysyi liki samalla tasolla vuodentakaiseen ajanjaksoon verrattuna. Käyttökate kasvoi, erityisesti kun vertailussa huomioidaan DNA:n IoT-liiketoiminnan siirto toiseen Telenorin konserniyhtiöön kuluvan vuoden alussa. Kiinteiden laajakaistaliittymien ja matkaviestinverkon liittymien määrät kasvoivat, mutta niiden keskilaskutus hieman laski.

DNA Plc’s Business Review for April–June 2026: Steady development continued in a highly competitive market environment16.7.2026 08:30:00 EEST | Press release

Considering the intense competitive landscape, the second quarter of the current year was financially quite strong for DNA. During April–June, revenue remained nearly at the same level as in the corresponding period last year. EBITDA increased, particularly when taking into account the transfer of DNA’s IoT business to another Telenor Group company at the beginning of the year. The number of fixed broadband and mobile network subscriptions increased, while their average revenue per user declined slightly.
