    Good for faster charging

    This charging adapter is good for providing FASTER charging and is a good substitute for the paltry 5W that comes with every iPhone. In fact, this is the second such adapter that I have purchased after giving the other one to my mom. Sure it won't be on par with the 11 Pro/Pro Max's stock charger but it's better than nothing for the 11 and older iPhones.

    Great power adapter for Apple products

    A solidly design power adapter with good current source for most Apple products. It charges my iPhone faster than the standard adapter that came with the product.

    Apple’s Best charger

    Love this charger for my iPhone, it’s super fast and I can also use it for other devices as well. My vehicle has an outlet on the back and doesn’t have usb or a cigarette lighter plug so it’s good for the rear passengers to charge their phones and I can use my other charger in the front of the car.

    Fast and Safe Adapter

    This is originally an adapter to charge an iPad but I was advised it would work on my iPhone and it’s the safest, quickest adapter I’ve ever had. I’m so happy I bought it!

Questions & Answers

  • What is the purpose of sliding off the the two printed that go into the wall, and expose a battery looking thing? What does this charger do when unplugged from the wall? Is this a wireless charger?

    It is for the optional foreign plug adapters. You slide off the American adapter and you can slide on the euro, or Chinese, ETC... adapters.
