Good to know
  • iPhone 15 and later (including iPhone 16e, 17e and iPhone Air) use USB-C; Lightning cables, docks and Lightning-plug accessories do not fit them without an adapter.
  • Fast-charge speed depends on charger wattage and protocol (USB PD; Google Pixel fast charging uses USB PD PPS).
  • iPhone 18 Pro / Pro Max only reach their fastest wired speed with a 60W-capable adapter that supports USB PD Adjustable Voltage Supply (AVS), per Apple.
  • Samsung 45W charging (S23+/S23 Ultra) is quoted by Samsung with a 5A USB-C cable; a standard 3A cable limits it.
