An option for those who don't mind spending 3-4 times what things will cost online at Amazon.


Unless things have changed recently, the Apple adapter(s) do not work all that well in Italy and/or Switzerland, countries that have decided that they have to be a bit different than most of the rest of Europe.


You only get one adapter in the kit for the country in which you are staying. Most of us need 3-4 adapters in the hotel room for the laptop, iPad, phones, razor, hairdryer, etc.


But, nice packaging with the Apple kit.

Just some clarification - is your question about the iPhone itself or the power adapter that may come in the box or that might have been recommended to work with an iPhone? Because Apple doesn't provide a power adapter any more with iPhones. And iPhones take in DC power, which can be from anything including an AC-DC power adapter, USB power bank, or a battery/mains powered computer with DC output from USB.
