Anker actually has newer slim 100w version, but it does cost more & it's just a tad longer. So slimmer and longer - but won't take up two plugs if they're close together.
If you have a devices plugged in and charging, and you plug in an additional device, the charger will "reset" itself and stop/ start charging the existing device a well as the new. My phones/ tablets all react like they've been unplugged and plugged in again.
Not a huge deal I guess, but the problem I've noticed is threefold:
1) some of my devices will detect that unplug/ plug and show down their charging rates
2) if you're using something that needs constant power, like LEDs or a RaspberryPi or whatever, it will temporarily interrupt their power
3) when I connect a wireless charging pad, it will tend to cycle on and off with this block and causes some weird feedback, and will cycle the other devices repeatedly.
Just my 2c, and since it happens on all 3 units I own i suspect it's part of the protection design of this block.

wasn't aware of the overheating and output throttling.
good to know
EDIT: i just read all of the 1 star reviews on Amazon and saw that many users have that overheating & output throttling that you describe. ah, I haven't experienced any of that yet, but makes me wanna return mine but i'm way past the returns window on Amazon
Also, the newer model supports fewer charging profiles. This is probably not a big deal for most users, but may be a deal breaker for others.

PD (Power Delivery) is a standard by which the voltage is negotiated between the charger and device, allowing for more flexibility. You couldn't plug your phone into your laptop's charger 10 years ago.
