Apple’s 40W Dynamic Power Adapter with 60W max uses USB PD 3.2 AVS to deliver faster charging for iPhone 17 models –50% in ~20 minutes under ideal conditions.
Apple has received a lot of flak in recent years for its slower charging speeds on iPhones, but the company has finally made some positive strides this year. With the arrival of the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro series, Apple has not only increased the battery mileage per charge but has also enhanced the charging speeds. What the company didn’t announce on stage was the arrival of a new charging brick for the iPhone. The new 40W Dynamic Power Adapter with 60W Max is technically compatible with all models dating back to the iPhone 15 series, but it can ideally deliver its peak performance of 0-50% top-up in just 20 minutes on iPhone 17 series models.
The charger is designed to supply 40W of output, but when needed, it can also provide 60W of power. Now, you might argue that at 60W, it matches the output of Apple’s 60W MagSafe Power Adapter for the MacBook Pro, and exceeds the rated capacity of the 45W adapter for the MacBook Air.
