The newly released Apple iPhone 12 family phones do not come with a charger but come with a USB-C to Lightning cable. All 12 series iPhones support 20-watt USB-C fast charging and can be charged from empty to 50% in just 25 to 30 mins . Therefore, the fastest and best iPhone 12 chargers are 20-watt USB-C PD power adapters as these charge your phones super-fast and you need not buy any new cable.
If you also have an Apple Watch, or Airpods, iPad, MacBook or a portable charger, you can consider a multi port charger to reduce clutter as this will let you charge two, three or even four devices at same time from a single compact power adapter. For example, you can fast-charge the iPhone 12 Pro, an Apple Watch 6, a MacBook Air, and an iPad at the same time from Aukey Omnia 100w 4-port USB-C Charger.
Apple’s latest fast-charging MagSafe Wireless charger for iPhones also requires a USB-C adapter.
