    Hi

    Any recommendations for buying a fast charge solution for compatible iphones?

    Correct me if I am wrong but you need two things

    - USB-C to Lightning cable
    - USB-C Fast Charging plug adaptor


    Any recommendations from amazon or even Ali express etc for a solution. I know you have to be careful with China etc but just looking at options etc.

    Thanks

    Depends on how fast you want. An standard iPad charger will charge over 2x faster without requiring any adaptors.

    iPad plug if you need 12w as opposed to 5w.
    Otherwise it’s an €80 plug upgrade along with the cable.

    Some Samsung’s come with 15w or 20w standard but the Apple upgrade option is 30w.

    You need a 29w or 30w PSU and USB-C to lightening. With apple thats €59 and €25. Amazon you will find 3rd party 30w USB-C chargers for about £25.
