Choosing the Right Charger for iPhone 16 Pro Max

I would like to choose the top adapter for iPhone 16 pro max both magsafe and usbc3. Which are the best, the top. From what I have seen the new Magsafe adapter (if I'm not mistaken it reaches 25W) and the 35W dual input adapter usbc they are the best, is that right or am I wrong?

Thank you very much, personally coming from android, I am used to charging from 0 to 100% in less than 20 minutes with 120W, so for me, the faster the charging just out of habit, the better it is for me. If I'm not mistaken iPhone 16 pro max supports up to 40W usbc and 20W in Magsafe, first of all correct me if I'm wrong and in case what I just said is right, why there is no 40W adaptor?

The closest one is 35W, The 35W one is compatible with iPhone 16 pro max, right?

Another question if I were to use an adapter with W greater than 40, would it damage the battery of iPhone 16 pro max ?

Best is subjective. It's true the new phones will be capable of charging faster with a 25w or 35w charger. It doesn't mean they charge better. It just means they can charge faster. For me, I plan to stick with my 15w MagSafe chargers as I charge my phone at night, all night, while I sleep and personally feel a slower charge may be better for the health of the battery.
