If you want to charge your iPhone as quickly as possible , the items you use and a few simple tricks can make a big difference in charging speed .
It's very useful to know how to use a fast charger and how to charge efficiently . This time, we've compiled 10 specific tips , including fast chargers . These are points that iPhone users should definitely put into practice .
Use a high-power fast charger
Let's start with the basics. Using a fast charger with 20W or more will significantly reduce charging time . The FlexLine Retractable Charging Cable supports PD3.0/40W and can quickly charge to over 50% in 30 minutes. With a retractable cord that extends up to 68cm and two USB-C ports, it's easy to use on the go.
Switch to a USB-C to Lightning cable
To get the most out of your fast charger, choosing the right cable is also important. If you use a USB-C to Lightning cable instead of a USB-A cable, you can use PD (Power Delivery) fast charging . The latest iPhones can be charged to over 50% in 30 minutes , so it's a good idea to use a compatible cable .
Turn on airplane mode
Communications, notifications, and background activity while charging consume power. Turning on airplane mode will disable Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and mobile data, speeding up charging. This is perfect for when you need to charge quickly and efficiently, like on a business trip or while traveling .
Turn off your iPhone while it's charging
If you want to charge your iPhone faster, you can also try turning it off completely . This will stop apps and the system from running , reducing the strain on the battery . However , you won't be able to receive calls or notifications , so it's best to try this before going to bed or when you have some free time .
Remove the case to let the heat escape
Heat generated during charging is one of the causes of reduced charging efficiency. Thick cases and shock-resistant cases in particular tend to trap heat, which can slow down charging. We recommend removing the case whenever possible and charging in a place where heat can easily dissipate.
Do not operate the smartphone while charging
Watching videos, playing games, or using apps will significantly drain the battery and slow down the charging speed. If you need to charge quickly, refrain from using these functions and do something else instead. This will prevent heat buildup and reduce strain on the battery.
Use a wall outlet instead of a USB port
The USB ports on PCs and cars have low output and cannot fully utilize the capabilities of fast chargers . Charging directly from a wall outlet provides stable power supply and high output .
Also, using multiple power strips or old power strips can slow down charging speeds, so we recommend using wall outlets whenever possible. Be sure to also pay attention to distributing power, especially when charging multiple devices at the same time.
Maintain an appropriate charging temperature (ideally 16-22 °C)
High temperatures reduce the battery's charging efficiency and accelerate deterioration. We recommend charging at a room temperature of 16 to 22°C (59 to 72°F) . For wireless charging , it's especially effective to use a model with a cooling function .
For example, the Ostand PolarCircle Qi2 compatible cooling Magsafe charger uses a dual structure of Peltier element and cooling fan to reduce heat generation while improving charging efficiency by up to 22% . It also has a temperature management function using an AI chip , which supports fast charging while reducing the burden on the device .
Additionally, the ICEstation 3-in-1 MagSafe charging stand is also convenient, allowing you to simultaneously cool and charge your iPhone , Apple Watch , and AirPods . Equipped with COOLiFY cooling technology , it's perfect for those who want to comfortably charge multiple devices at once.
Keep iOS up to date
Your iPhone's charging speed and battery management also depend on the version of iOS you're using. Keeping your device up to date with the latest iOS updates optimizes fast charging, fixes bugs, and enhances battery protection, allowing for safer and more efficient charging . Be sure to check for updates frequently from the Settings app .
Use MFi-certified energy-saving accessories
Be sure to choose charging cables and adapters that are MFi (Made for iPhone) certified . Officially certified accessories allow you to use the fast charging function with peace of mind and reduce the risk of overheating and overcurrent .
We also recommend the 5000mAh MiniBag lightweight and compact mobile battery , which is convenient to carry around .
- Designed specifically for iPhone and compatible with MagSafe , it features an ultra-slim body that is just 0.8cm thinnest in the industry . It fits securely to the back of your smartphone .
- Equipped with TORRAS' unique fast charging technology, it also comes with overheating and overcharging prevention functions. It is PSE certified for peace of mind .
- Weighing just 111g, it fits easily into a bag or pocket, making it perfect for travel , business trips , and outings.
- The lineup also includes a new model in the popular pink pastel color. Despite its compact size, it can fully charge an iPhone approximately once.
- Built-in super-strong magnets keep your device in place while charging wirelessly, even with a MagSafe case on.
