The new lineup simplifies charging, with features such as active cooling and built-in retractable cables that help reduce heat, cable clutter and the need for multiple charging accessories.
"As people rely on more devices throughout their day, the need for a simpler, more seamless charging experience continues to grow," said Hestia Wang, Senior Product Director at ESR. "Our new charging lineup is designed to bring greater speed, convenience and flexibility across the Apple ecosystem."
Cooler Wireless Charging with More Flexibility
Leading the lineup is the ESR Cyclone 25W Magnetic Charging Pad with CryoBoost, an IFA Innovation Award 2026 Honoree. It pairs Qi2 25W wireless charging for compatible smartphones with CryoBoost® active cooling to effectively reduce heat during charging, helping protect long-term battery health. Its adjustable kickstand supports portrait and landscape viewing at angles from 0 to 150 degrees, while a 5.9-ft cable provides extra reach for flexible positioning across different setups. Together, these features let users comfortably watch videos, play games, check messages or use StandBy mode while charging.
Compact Fast Charging for Travel
Designed for charging on the go, the ESR Xtend 45W Retractable Charger with GaN technology delivers up to 60W peak dynamic output through USB PD 3.2 AVS, providing fast and efficient charging across compatible devices. With 60W max dynamic power, it can charge an iPhone 18 Pro to 50% in 15 minutes. Its compact design incorporates a 3.1-ft retractable USB-C cable that provides extra reach and retracts neatly for easy storage, while an additional USB-C port allows two devices to charge simultaneously. Together, these features provide more charging flexibility while keeping cables organized and reducing the need for extra accessories.
Power for Multiple Devices on the Road
For in-car charging, the ESR Xtend 100W Retractable Car Charger with Dual Cables delivers up to 100W total output, with up to 67W and 33W available simultaneously for fast charging. It can charge a MacBook Pro to 50% and an iPhone 17 Pro Max to 65% simultaneously in 35 minutes. Alternatively, its 67W output can charge an iPhone 18 Pro to 50% in 15 minutes. Two built-in 3.1-ft retractable cables and an additional USB-A port allow up to three devices to charge at once. The cables extend when needed and retract within seconds, keeping loose cords out of the car.
New Colors Coming in October
ESR will expand its color range with new Burgundy options in October. The new finish will be available for the Cyclone 25W Magnetic Charging Pad with CryoBoost®, Xtend 45W Retractable Charger and CryoBoost 25W Foldable 3-in-1 Magnetic Charging Station, offering a new look across the lineup.
Pricing and Availability
The new Cyclone and Xtend chargers are available through ESR's official website and Amazon. Pricing starts at $36.99 for the Cyclone 25W charging pad and $35.99 for the Xtend 45W charger. The Xtend 100W car charger is $44.99.
Product images and additional information are available in the press kit.

ESR Releases Its Latest Charging Lineup for the iPhone 18 Pro Series and iPhone Duo
FRANKFURT, Germany and AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Creality today announces the launch of the multi-color 3D printer SPARKX i8 on Indiegogo, at a super early-bird price of $289 (MSRP $399) starting from Sept. 21. Designed for ultimate user experience, the SPARKX i8 features a single-toolhead, four-channel extrusion architecture that delivers fastest color printing, zero external purge waste, zero prime towers and CMYK full-color printing, bringing multi-color 3D printing to the next generation.
Fastest Four-Color Printing Powered by QuarTeks™
At the core of the SPARKX i8 is Creality's QuarTeks™ Color Change System. The new architecture integrates four independent filament channels into one compact toolhead. Unlike systems that require multiple toolheads or external filament swapping, the i8 pre-loads filaments directly into the quad-channel toolhead to make color changes more efficient.
Near the nozzle tip, QuarTeks™ is equipped with an ultra-short shared filament path of less than 1 mm, or approximately 2 mm³. It is at least 30 times shorter than other shared paths widely used in the market. Powered by the ultra-short path, the i8 is able to switch color channels in less than 1 second, as it significantly reduces filament retraction, feeding and purging. Thus, switching between colors is made as quick and effortless as clicking a four-color ballpoint pen.
With no need to swap toolheads, nozzles, or motion platforms, the i8 greatly enhances the printing efficiency and cuts production time by simplifying the color change mechanism. According to Creality's lab tests of building a four-color tower with 3,000 color switches, the i8 completed the test in around 18 hours, 500% faster than printers with an external feed system.
Zero External Purge Waste
The QuarTeks™ is also built for reducing material waste. The less-than-1-mm shared filament path minimizes the amount of purge waste. Under optimal slicing settings, color transitions can be flushed directly into the model's infill or inner walls, bringing external purge waste down to 0 g*.
*0 g: No external purging during printing. Only a small amount of filament is flushed at the start.
Zero Prime Towers
SPARKX i8 eliminates prime towers by shifting color-change travel into the model's infill paths, without the need to print a separate tower for each color change. This significantly cuts color-transition time under prime-tower-free settings. Meanwhile, a dedicated clean wall isolates infill colors to keep model surfaces impeccable.
CMYK Full-Color Printing
SPARKX i8 also supports full-spectrum layered color printing, capable of creating richer ranges of colors by combining and mixing four base-color filaments across different layers. The layered color mixing* forms intermediate tones, gradients, and variations in brightness through different layer thicknesses and mixing sequences. With just four filament colors, the i8 can produce 16 or even 32 color combinations in a single print, unlocking unlimited possibilities of creations.
*Layered color mixing is not equivalent to precise color matching and cannot perfectly reproduce all specified colors.
AI-Assisted Monitoring
The 13 sensors built into the printhead with AI vision camera monitor four filament channels, switching mechanisms, and key printing statuses, detecting issues in real time such as an empty spool, filament runout, and air printing for faster troubleshooting. In addition, the standalone i8 features automatic filament refill, which allows up to four loaded spools of the same material at once and automatically switches to another when one runs out, enabling larger and more continuous prints.
Crowdfunding Availability & Best Price Ever
Now is the time to get the SPARKX i8 at its best available price by backing the crowdfunding campaign starting from Sept. 21.
Key sales information includes:
- Crowdfunding page link: www.indiegogo.com
- Super early-bird price: $289, with very limited availability, increasing to $399 when super early-bird slots are sold out.
- Free shipping and taxes: The 1,000 backers who order in the first 24 hours will receive a full refund of shipping and taxes, up to $50, after the campaign. The offer is limited to one i8 per backer.
- Shipping time: Orders are scheduled to ship from factories in October, with delivery expected in November, varying by region and local logistics during the Q4 peak season.
