(Last Updated On: July 29, 2020)

Well, it’s another year and now there are new iPhones that are available. The announcement of the new phones from Apple isn’t exactly too surprising as it’s just an incremental improvement on last year’s iPhone X. However, this year, there are a total of three phones that are going to be released. The iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, and finally the iPhone XR are all the new phones from Apple and they are quite powerful. Not only that, but they cost quite a hefty price with the iPhone XS Max potentially reaching into the $1,500 price range if you choose to get higher storage space for it.

Each of the phones is compatible with fast wireless charging, which means that you can charge them at 10W with a fast wireless charger. The iPhone XS, XS Max, and XR are also Power Delivery fast charging compatible, however, with Apple being Apple, none of them come with a fast charger. Instead, what you get in the box is a slow charging 5W wall charger. This is absurd considering how much the phones cost and it’s something that the brand needs to reconsider with the competition such as Samsung and also, OnePlus being a smaller brand, both include a fast charger to charge their smartphones with.

Since you won’t be able to fast charge the iPhones right out of the box, we thought we would create a guide on what chargers you should be used for these phones that are all Power Delivery compatible. Something important to know is that you are going to need a USB-C to Lightning charging cable to fast charge the new iPhones.

Chargers in this Guide:

Anker PowerPort II 30W Power Delivery Wall Charger

The simplest charging electronic that you can use is a wall charger, it’s basically what comes with the iPhone. However, this Anker PowerPort II wall charger is different because it’s not only much more powerful but also because it features two ports.

One port is the USB-C Power Delivery port that has a 30W charging speed, and this is the one that can charge the iPhone XS and XR at their max charging speed. A 30W charging speed can also be useful for charging a USB-C MacBook and so if you’re also the owner of a MacBook, then owning a Power Delivery wall charger or any other of the Power Delivery charging electronics that we mention is a great idea. The other port on this PowerPort II is a USB-A port and it makes use of Anker’s PoweriQ 2.0 charging tech.

The PoweriQ 2.0 charging tech is another way of saying that the port can output 18W of charging power, which also means that it’s Quick Charge compatible. So this wall charger features two fast charging technologies, with one being Power Delivery and Quick Charge for Android smartphones that are compatible with the charging tech.

A benefit of getting this wall charger is not only because of its powerful charging but also for its form factor with it having a length/width of 2.7 inches and it’s 1.1 inches in thickness. So you can fit this wall charger into your pocket if you wanted to.

Jackery SuperCharge 10,200mAh 18W Power Delivery Portable Charger

Now we’re moving onto the portable chargers, and this is where Power Delivery shines because the charging tech can be implemented within a power bank so you can fast charge not only Power Delivery compatible smartphones, but it’s also useful for charging laptops while you’re on the move. With that said, there are not many Power Delivery power banks that are small and have a lower power capacity as most Power Delivery portable chargers are made to charge a PD compatible laptop and so they have high power capacities.

However, for the first power bank that we have to recommend it’s one of the few mid-range Power Delivery portable chargers on the market. It’s this Jackery SuperChage 10,200mAh power bank. The charger has enough power capacity to charge the iPhone XS and iPhone XR to full power at least two times.

There are two ports on this power bank, one is the USB-C Power Delivery port that has an 18W charging speed, and this amount of charging power might seem low in comparison to the other Power Delivery charging that we mentioned. However, 18W of PD charging is all you need to fast charge the iPhone.

The other port is a USB-A port that has a 5V/2.4A (12W) charging speed.

You have to use the USB-C port to recharge the power bank, and you can recharge it at Power Delivery speeds. That said, this power bank does not come with a Power Delivery wall charger so you have to provide your own to recharge it at full speed.
