Yes you can.

Yes it is.

See the following from Fast charge your iPhone - Apple Support

You can fast charge your iPhone 8 and later up to 50 percent battery in around 30 minutes.1

Fast charging works when you use an Apple USB-C to Lightning cable and one of these adapters:

- Apple 18W, 20W,2 29W, 30W, 61W, 87W, or 96W USB-C Power Adapter
- A comparable third-party USB-C power adapter that supports USB Power Delivery (USB-PD)

Thank you,

12 . Testing conducted by Apple in August 2021 using preproduction iPhone 13 mini, iPhone 13, iPhone 13 Pro, and iPhone 13 Pro Max units and software and accessory Apple USB-C Power Adapter (20W Model A2305). Fast-charge testing conducted with drained iPhone units. Charge time varies with settings and environmental factors; actual results will vary.

From this link - could you please point 12 - and clarify this ?

Does this means they tested 20 W - and we can use 61 and even more ?

Kindly clarify ?

Thank you LD150 for clarification.

I have one last question -

30 W

20 W -

Please see the Compatibility for both 20 W & 30 W - You can see iPhone 13 Pro. You will not see iPhone 13 Pro for 12 W or below

Now for 67 W or anything apart from 20 W or 30 W -

in the Compatibility list, I could not see iPhone 13 pro.

I am sorry, if this discussion is extending. I wanted this to be clarified to all with your expertise.

Thank you much,

- AJ

what is the best way to get the confirmation from Apple on this?

I had chatted with 3 Support Engineers, All 3 gave different Answers.

It is 1900 of 20 W - My point is not about 1900 - it is because to get clarity on the Apple products.

Thanks

no, the higher power is pretty much irrelevant. The iPhone will only draw the power it is capable of handling

Firstly Apple have a backlog of updating of KB articles.

Secondly some of those may not be USB-C, if they are then they are compatible.

You can use ANY Apple USB-C charging block from Apple Store.

If you want fast charge choose one 20W or higher.

That's it.

I am no longer following this thread,
