iPhone 6 comes with an Apple 5-watt wall charger that takes quite a bit to charge it. However, the phone supports much faster charging speed and can be in fact charged at about twice the speed of the stock Apple iPhone 6 charger.
The new iPhone 13/12 series phones (as well as new iPhone 11/SE 2020 etc.) support USB-C PD fast-charging but do not come with any charger in the box. So if you plan to upgrade in near future you can get a future-proof dual port charger like Anker PowerPort PD2 Dual Port ( UK type Plug version ). This will fast-charge your iPhone 6 at twice the speed of Apple charger now and fast-charge your future iPhone 13 series, 12/12 Pro/12 Mini/11/XR/SE 2020 etc. at 20-watts (zero to 60% in 30 mins).
Here are some ways to fast-charge the iPhone 6 at its maximum possible charging speed:
Fast-charge iPhone 6 with 2.4 amp Wall Charger
One of the most convenient ways to fast-charge your iPhone 6 is to replace your stock Apple iPhone 6 charger with a 2.4 amp wall charger. We recommend Anker Powerport 2 Elite 2.4 amp dual USB port charger for because of its great build quality, two-ports, and small, compact clean design. It will charge iPhone 6 from empty to half in about 30 minutes which is almost half the time taken by iPhone stock charger. Anker Powerport 2 Elite comes with dual ports, which enable it to charge two devices at once. For example, you can charge your iPhone 6 along with another device such as an iPhone, iPad or a power bank at 2.4 amp fast charging speeds.
2.4 amp fast charging works equally well with all iPads and the Anker Powerport 2 Elite will fast-charge almost all iPads and your iPhone 6 together at their maximum possible speeds. The Anker Powerport 2 Elite will also fast-charge your power bank (portable charger) in half the time taken by the iPhone charger. For example, a 20000mah power bank such as PowerCore 20100 gets charged in about 20 hours or more by the iPhone stock charger and in only about 10 hours by the Anker PowerPort 2 Elite dual port charger.

iPhone Fast-Charge: What It Does and What It Does Not Do
iPhone 6 (as well as other iPhones) get fast-charged only till about 80% battery level. After that, the charging current drops drastically and it does not matter whether you use a 1 amp charger or 2 amp charger. This makes fast-charging in iPhone 6 most effective only when the battery is at a very low level. For example, iPhone 6 will get charged from empty battery to 50% in about 60 minutes by the standard iPhone charger but it will get fast-charge from zero to 50% in just 30 minutes from a 2.4 amp charger, saving half the charging time (30 minutes). Difference in charge durations will be much lower once you go above 60%.
