Just get Apple 20W brick. I got the expensive ass 35w with two ports to charge my Watch as well. Why i didnt get 3rd party much cheaper charger? Cuz I already spent so much on both iPhone and Watch so i wont cheap out on a charger. Despite popular consensus that any charger will do its job properly i dont believe thats true, i watched comparisions made by electricians and these 3rd party chargers differ very much from each other so ill trust Apple specs

So you spent a bunch of extra money on Apple chargers instead of third-party chargers because of... A feeling?

Here's the facts: Apple's chargers are just standard USB power delivery bricks at this point. Any PD charger from Anker, Belkin, Ravpower, or any other reputable charging brand is going to do the exact same thing.

I use the slowest charger I can as it keeps the battery healthy for longer. But I also have 60w and 150w usb c chargers so I can charge fast if I need

I’m using 5w apple charger to charge my 15pm over night. Takes about 3-3.5 hours to fully charge, but it doesn’t get warm at all which is good for battery health.
