After so many years since ip4, I'm back with apple phone again.
Yesterday I just got my iPhone 12 pro max.

Should I purchase the adapter from apple store or shopee.
I'm not sure shopee adapter is it original anot.

There's so many kind of 18w / 20w / 30w, which one have the lightning speed performance ?

Please advise 🙏🏻

Get Apple 20W charging adapter directly from Apple Store. At least you can still use it with MagSafe if you need.

Get from Challenger if you have member. $28 instead of $29 at Apple Store

Ideally always original, but if expensive, can get those 3rd party kind, but should always try to get MFI. you don't want to mess with anything that is to do with power/electricity

I’d always recommend the Apple original for best performance. I’m using the 30W USB-C one.

Is Ugreen 18w PD good too? I bought one for office use. I’m using Anker at home.

Is there a difference between 20w and 30w power adapter?

The 20W adapter is a new adapter so haven't used it, but the 30W charges pretty speedy. I suppose the 20W to 30W difference isn't going to be significant, perhaps could save around 15mins of charging time.

Not unless you are using MagSafe. You might not get full 15W charging with the 30W power adapter.

I might not get MagSafe, don't wish to leave marks on my leather case. The 30W adapter is good for me for now, at least for my iPhones and iPad Pro.

Most probably I go for the new original 20w adapter.

Yesterday went to istudio, unfortunately out of stocks already.

20W will do. Walk in to Apple store and they should have stock, you can get 1 within 5 minutes.

If you have an iPad Pro then you can just use the power brick. That’s 18W but doesn’t matter.
