The Zenbook A14 is basically Asus' answer to the MacBook Air, with Asus representatives even telling me that the "A" very unofficially stands for Air. It's a 14-inch model with an incredibly light weight of just 2.16 pounds (or 0.98 kilograms if you live in a civilized country). This base model is running on a Snapdragon X chip with 16GB of RAM, and though the 1200p display is a gorgeous OLED panel, it doesn't have a touchscreen. It's packing 512GB of storage.
You can read all about this laptop in Chris Hoffman's review of it for PCWorld. In short, it's tiny, it's featherlight, it has a unique "ceraluminum" finish that makes it stand out, and the battery life is absolutely astonishing—70 watt-hours in a laptop this small gives it a full 24 hours in a standardized battery test. For downsides, that 8-core Snapdragon X chip (the slowest of these Arm-based options) won't blow anyone away, and it might just refuse to play some 3D-based games. (Note that this model sold by Best Buy isn't the same one in the review. It's a lighter sand color and has half the RAM and storage, 16GB/512GB, respectively.)

Here's the full list, compiled from two different Anker alerts and spotted by 9to5Google:
Anker PowerCore 10000 — Model A1263
Anker Power Bank (10K, 22.5W) — Model A1257
Anker Power Bank (20K, 22.5W, Built-In USB-C Cable) — Model A1647
Anker MagGo Power Bank (10K, 7.5W) — Model A1652
Anker Zolo Power Bank (20K, 30W, Built-In USB-C and Lightning Cable) — Model A1681
Anker Zolo Power Bank (20K, 30W, Built-In USB-C Cable) — Model A1689
Anker says that it's initiating a recall for these models "out of an abundance of caution." If you have one of the affected devices, first of all, stop using it. Second of all, don't throw it in the trash—a flaming bag of garbage is only marginally better than flaming pants. You can initiate the recall process with Anker even if you no longer have a receipt for the battery, simply using photos of the appropriate model number.
Once you document your battery and submit the photos to Anker, you can dispose of it via an authorized recycling or waste disposal center (standard electronics recycling centers might not have the necessary safety equipment). Yo
