Can I use a 18W adapter to charge up my iPhone 8 with lightning cable? As the new iPhone is currently be able to support 29W fast charging as claimed by Apple (need USB-C to lightning cable). Thank you for the information in advance.
iPhone 8, iOS 11.1
Hi Celxiuz. It will likely not charge any faster if you use a regular USB to Lightning cable. The charging current is actually regulated by the charging circuit in the iPhone. The power supply is just a power source. The USB-C cable probably includes circuitry indicating that fast charging is available.
Yes, for regular charging.
Charging speed will be faster than 5W?
Couldn't tell you. I don't know.
Can use power adapter with 18W to charge iPhone 8 with lighting cable?
