We have rounded up the best fast chargers, wireless charging pads, magnetic chargers, and other accessories for the iPhone 14 lineup.
Whether you buy the more affordable iPhone 14, the iPhone 14 Plus, or the top-of-the-line iPhone 14 Pro or iPhone 14 Pro Max, you won’t find any additional accessories or add-ons inside the box. You don’t even get a power adapter! Apple stopped including chargers and earphones with iPhones in 2020, and the new iPhones aren’t any different in this regard. They only provide a USB-C to Lightning cable in the box.
As great as the new iPhone 14 models are on their own, accessories or add-ons can make them even better. In this post, we have rounded up the best fast chargers, wireless charging pads, magnetic chargers, and other accessories for the iPhone 14 lineup.
Best fast chargers for the iPhone 14 series
The iPhone 14 series doesn’t bring any improvements to charging speed. The iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus support 20W of max charging speed, while the Pro models top out at 27W. To take advantage of the faster speeds, you’ll need a charger that delivers 20W or more power.
When buying a charger for your iPhone 14, there are a few things you need to keep in mind.
- Make sure the charger has a USB-C connection and not USB-A because — otherwise, you’ll also have to purchase a cable.
- You want to buy a charger that supports USB PD (power delivery).
- GaN chargers are faster, more compact, and more energy efficient than the standard silicon-based chargers.
- Choosing a charger with multiple ports will let you charge your iPhone alongside your laptop and other devices.
