Over the past year, I’ve had the pleasure of testing out loads of chargers and MagSafe charging stands for Apple devices. If you just preordered a new iPhone 18 Pro and you’re looking for the best ways to take advantage of fast charging, these are my top picks.
Anker Nano 45W with Smart Display
You’ve likely seen this small, cute, 45W charger with a display all over your TikTok feed. It has an intuitive display that shows you exactly how fast your device is charging, and it’ll even show you which device you’re plugged into – not that it matters too much.
The more important feature is the fact that the prongs can adjust based on which position you want the display to be in. It also comes in 4 colors: blue, white, black, and orange. You can buy one on Amazon for $29.99.
This won’t charge your iPhone 18 Pro with the fastest speeds, though it will get quite close. For the highest speeds, you’ll need the next charger on the list.
Apple 40W Dynamic Power Adapter with 60W Max
This oddly named power adapter from last year will support the highest speed fast charging on iPhone 18 Pro, according to Apple’s website. It’s exactly what you’d expect from an Apple charger, and it’s available on Amazon for $34.99.
With its up to 60W capacity thanks to Adjustable Voltage Supply, you can charge an iPhone 18 Pro up to 50% in just 15 minutes.
Anker Nano 70W
If you want a charger you can use for multiple things, the Anker Nano 70W is a fantastic choice. It’ll charge your iPhone 18 Pro to the fullest, whilst also being able to provide a sufficient charge for a base model 14” MacBook Pro or MacBook Air. It has three ports: two USB-C and one USB-A.
