2 cases as defendant.
Anker Innovations Co., Ltd., commonly known as Anker, is a Chinese consumer electronics company founded in 2011 by Steven Yang. Headquartered in Changsha, Hunan, the company is publicly traded on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange under the ticker SZSE: 300866. Anker Innovations reported revenue of approximately CNY 17.51 billion for 2023 and employed over 6,300 people as of late 2025. The company has grown into a global brand with subsidiaries in the United States, Japan, and the United Kingdom, among other locations.
Anker is an operating company that designs, manufactures, and sells a wide range of smart hardware and consumer electronics. The company's offerings are organized under several brands. The main 'Anker' brand is a global leader in charging technology, including portable power banks, wall chargers, and charging cables. Its other major brands include 'soundcore' for audio products like headphones and speakers, 'eufy' for smart home devices such as robotic vacuums and security systems, 'Anker SOLIX' for portable power stations, and 'AnkerMake' for 3D printers.
Based on the provided litigation data, Anker Innovations' patent-litigation posture is that of an operating company defending its products in court. The company has been named as a defendant in one tracked U.S. patent case and has not appeared as a plaintiff. This defensive profile is typical for a manufacturer of consumer technology products.
The single tracked case is ONE-E-WAY, INC. v. Anker Innovations Limited, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas. The plaintiff, One-E-Way, Inc., has previously asserted patents related to wireless digital audio systems against other major technology companies. This suggests the litigation targets Anker's 'soundcore' audio products. Anker's role in this case is purely defensive, consistent with its status as a technology producer.
This active infringement case against Anker has been consolidated for pretrial purposes with a related action against Dell.
