Daily iPhone tip #1 - Charge fast

Modern iPhones these days can charge really fast, but only when paired with correct accessories. The iPhone 16 models in particular got extra fast in this regard.

For maximum charging speed while charging with a cable, use a charger (the thing you plug into the wall) of at least 45w. Only use reputable brands like Belkin, Mophie, Anker or Apple’s own chargers - as long as least 45w. Combine this with a USB C to UCB C cable (an USB A to USB C won’t cut it). The one that comes in the box with the iPhone 16 works well!

For maximum charging speed while wirelessly charging, you need Apple’s latest MagSafe charger. That in turn needs to be combined with a wall plug of at least 30w.

Dagens tips: din telefon laddar nu ****avsevärt*** mycket snabbare både trådlöst och med sladd om du använder rätt laddare och sladd.

- För *maximal* snabbhet vid laddning med sladd, använd en laddare (alltså det man sticker i vägguttaget) på minst 45w. Använd endast från en reputabel tillverkare såsom Belkin, Mophie, Anker - eller Apples egna laddare så länge den är på minst 45w. Kombinera med en USB c till USB c sladd (USB a till USB c fungerar inte vid snabbladdning). Den som följer med i boxen till iPhone 16 funkar bra!

- för maximal snabbhet vid trådlös laddning krävs Apples senaste MagSafe laddare. Kombinera den med en laddare på minst 30w.
