The good news though, is that the latest iPhones and iPads work with, even the 87W model. With that in mind, for fast charging may be a lot more appealing for MacBook Pro owners. While it may sound risky at first, it’s safe to use any of Apple’s USB-C chargers as your iPhone or iPad is what determines the power it receives, not the charger. Apple even does with the whole range of its USB-C power adapters. I tested all this out with my 87W USB-C power adapter, 12W standard iPad USB adapter, and third-party. My iPhone X consistently pulled the same ≈6W from each charger. Note: depending on the current capacity of your battery, your device will pull different levels of power.

For example, a battery at 10% will draw more power than one at 80%. Apple updated its this summer that says the following iOS devices are compatible with the adapters:. iPhone X. iPhone 8. iPhone 8 Plus. iPad Pro 12.9-inch (2nd generation). iPad Pro 12.9-inch.

iPad Pro 10.5-inch In another, Apple notes that if you use its, “A comparable third-party USB-C power adapter that supports USB Power Delivery (USB-PD)” will also work.

Many people have never realized that the MagSafe adapter has two “wings” on the corners on either side of the integrated cable. Flip them out and you can wrap the cable around them, securing it with the little clip that slides along the length the cable. If you’ve been fussing with a messy MagSafe cable while traveling, give the wings and clip a try!
