iPhone 14 May Gain 30W Fast Charging

  

A new leak suggests the iPhone 14 lineup could gain 30W fast charging, a significant jump from the 20W rating used in the iPhone 13 lineup.


The rumors are based on reports that an unnamed charger brand is allegedly sending out 30W iPhone 14 adapters to the media for early access and review. This company believes Apple will be advertising 30W charging as a feature of the iPhone 14 series.


This leak has no associated links or images, but it isn't a far-fetched notion. The iPhone 13 Pro Max was able to support 27W charging temporarily in a test, suggesting that 30W support is possible.


Currently, an iPhone 8 or newer plugged into an 18W PD USB-C wall adapter will charge 50% of its battery in 30 minutes. The iPhone 12 and subsequent models support 20W fast charging.


A 30W charger would theoretically cut this time significantly — at the cost of substantially more heat.


It isn't clear if the 30W charging would be limited to iPhone 14 Pro models or be available to all iPhone 14 models. Limitations could also be placed based on the battery size, so only "max" models could get the feature.


The iPhone 14 Pro series may use 30W charging power? Recently, a charger brand began to send new charger products to the media, and it will advertise in the experience video of the iPhone 14 series.
