Most of us are stuck in our homes due to multiple waves of pandemics and pretty much working from home. However, that doesn’t mean we dont appreciate a fast-charging iPhone; moreover, being stuck in the house is miserable enough; we don't want to be stuck into the cable length.
Plus, when it comes to charging, other brands seem to be leaping lightyears ahead. Take One Plus budget phone Nord 2 5G, which gets to cent percent in almost 30 minutes or take Xiaomi 120W Mi 10Ultra, which reaches to quarter in just three minutes. So for any apple user, this may seem like a tortoise beside a rabbit. But don’t forget the moral of the story. It appears that for now, Apple inc doesn’t even want to participate in the race. Even the latest iPhone 12 Pro Max has relatively slow charging.

Fast charging generates more heat, which can lead to battery damage, including the charging cycle it goes through, potentially shortening the useful life of your phone.
