The Ultimate Guide to Charging Your Apple Devices: Top Chargers for Every Budget (2025)

With so many devices in our pockets and everyday carry, each device has its own form of charging or wattage capacity, it is now more important than ever to make sure you have the correct charger for each device. For instance, my iPhone charges at 15W via Qi2 but can charge at up to 40W when wired in, so what is the best solution? I’m here to help you pick the best charger no matter your price point.

Criteria

Over the years, I have tested many different forms of charging, from simple wireless pad chargers to 500W power bricks. So I have been able to see which works well, which needs improvement, and which are just chargers you want to avoid. I have come up with three rules when selecting a charger:

1. Multi-Functional
2. Little to no heat
3. Works every time you need it to

I know these points sound obvious, but you’d be surprised how poorly some chargers can be made. But now, with that out of the way lets get into these charging solutions! Be sure to watch the video below for a hands-on look at these accessories.
