5 Fast Charging Included in the Box
Apple’s 2017 iPhone plan, including the iPhone 8, sport fast-charging capabilities. But, with the fanfare around wireless charging, that fact may have been a bit buried. That’s especially true since quick-charging still requires additional purchases for this year’s iPhones.
Apple’s standard 5W charger is fine — it’s small, portable and does the job. But it is a bit of letdown that the new iPhones’ quick charging capability is only accessible with a $49 extra purchase. Next year, Apple could give every iPhone user a upgrade by including an Type-C USB cable and a quick-charge compatible charger in the box.
