I wouldn't be surprised, if Apple's own charger is the only one that will get noticeably improved speed charging.


I have one of the more expensive RAVPower ($50) Qi chargers.Nice built but I've noticed

1) It is profoundly positional if you want it to keep charging

2) With Coconut battery watching my iPhone X charging rate, it was charging at <4 watts, closer to 3 for most of the time I watched, vs almost 5 watts when plugged in and this is WITH the 11.2 beta..Profoundly disappointing.

Is there a decent iOS app or windows application that can monitor the battery like the above mentioned Coconut Battery?

Rav Power Charger has an indicator (per spec) which tell us if it’s fast charging. With 11.2 B4 it does not detect it to be fast charging.

Yes it supports.... I've tried it with Android Fast Wireless Chargers (10W) and it does support it. I will later try to update it and try it again with the 11.2 iOS.

Can you tell how many % a ‘non Belkin, non Mophie’ wireless charger can charge to an iPhone on 11.2 in 10 minutes when battery is below 50%? ...on ‘fast charge’ mode.

This post make zero sense. You are saying you tried it and it works but in the next sentence you stated you that you haven't updated to 11.2 yet. If you have updated to 11.2 yet, you are not getting fast wireless charging.
