If you have an iPhone XR, iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, iPhone X, iPhone 8, or iPhone 8 Plus, we’re about to let you in on a little secret that’s a total game-changer: your iPhone supports fast charging! It comes with a cheap little 5W wall adapter in the box, but it actually supports charging speeds up to 18W. At 18W, your iPhone will charge from 0% to 80% in less than one our, or you can top up your phone with several hours of battery life in just 15 minutes. If you want to get in on the action though, there are two small purchases you’ll need to make.
First, you need a USB-C wall adapter that supports 18W fast charging. Anker is obviously the best in the business and we recommend the Anker USB C 18W Power Delivery Charger, which is on sale right now for $19.99. Then you just need an Apple Lightning to USB-C Cable to connect to the adapter, and you can also scoop that up on Amazon for $19. Presto, you’re fast charging for just $39!
