iPhone 8/X fast charge off of Macbook Pro USB-C port?

Does the iPhone 8/X fast-charge when connected to a Macbook Pro USB-C port, via the Apple USB-C to lighting cable? If yes, does it work when the Macbook Pro is on battery power only, or does the laptop need to be plugged into the 87W USB-C Power Adapter?

iPhone X, iOS 11.1

No. As explained in the support document you came from, Fast charging happens when using one of the listed power adapters.


The USB-C ports on a MacBook do not provide enough power for fast charging.
