    Moto G62 is 18W, charger in the box was 20W.

    Person needs to know before buying the phone, which speed it can handle.

    My old ipad. I had to buy years ago new lightning cable.
    Got one from Anker , it is certified by Apple.
    Price was 1/3 of the original.

    Something else. OEMs that put usb 3.1 / 3.2 on phones need to give cables compatible. They give ones with usb2.0 protocol.

      iPhones look the same and ARE the same barringa a few small ant-size upgrades …there is no incentive to buy new iPhones - NO innovation or no novelty ..

        Get any phone with 80, 100 or 120 and compare them using native charging and 15/20W.

        I have tested Motorola. 68W vs 20W
        Difference is pretty obvious.
        With 68W, it is like your playing demanding game.
        Much cooler with 20W.


          Anonymous, 12 Sep 2024Should be forbidden to advertise charging speed the device ... moreThat. But also what I said. Users can't know what charger exactly they need and not including a charger just so you force user to buy YOUR charger separately specifically to reach your advertised speeds is stupid. Not to mention anything but ecological when you need double the packaging, larger shipping volume and not to mention it's ripping off the users.

          Neither should be allowed. I don't mind Chinese brand bragging about 65W when they also include the charger that actually reaches those speeds. Samsung, not only they don't include the charger, their 45W was NEVER 45W on a 65W charger that actually specifically supports their protocol (because I got the SuperSpeed charge animation when plugged).

          Apple is somewhere in the middle. They don't include the charger, but their speeds were always kinda slow so almost any charger was reaching them anyway.

            Like saying phone has 30W but its peak is 22W.
            Same to phones that claim 250 but do not even pass 200 , not even for a second.

            Advertising 30 if it reaches 20 is wrong.
            Advertising 80 if it reaches 65 is wrong.
            Advertising 120 if it reaches 90 is wrong

                  Also, they have 20-25W maximum charging speeds since iPhone 11 Pro Max. Just about in the same time Samsung had 25W with Note 10, if I am not mistaken.
                  I don't think Apple improved too much the overall charging time since then. Is basically around 90 minutes for full charge.
                  I don't think it will be lower than 70-80 minutes in iPhone 16 series.

[... moreThat’s like when the first car is revealed and a horse-drawn carriage manufacturer says „we‘ve had a front-mounted power generator for years!“. Yeah, but an engine is quite a bit more advanced from an engineering point of view than a horse. Just like the camera control is quite a bit more advanced than a mechanical two-stage button.

                              They increased the power consumption, not the speed. 45 Watt is for what if it still takes 2 hours to fill the phone? I don't give a s#it about "battery health" nonsense, my android charges with 67 watt and it's been almost 3 years no issues.

                                I don't get why people bash the iphone batteries. My 15 pro max is still at 100 % health after 9 month of daily use.
