Apple 5 watt chareger & 12 watt charger takes the same time to charge my iPhone 7 plus, why?

I recently bought an 12 watt charger so that i can charge my iPhone more quickly than the 5 watt charger. I have an iPhone 7 plus. But when i tested it by charging from 0 to 100%.l, both thee chargers took the same time. Shouldn’t the 12 watt charger supposed to be charging the iPhone faster ?

iPhone 7 Plus, 14

No.

The iPhone 8 and later can be fast charged by using a 18 watt or larger power adapter. See: Fast charge your iPhone - Apple Support
