Hi,

Is there any fast charger which would be compatible with S7 and iPhone 13 Pro Max ?
I can spend 60-70£ max.

EDIT:
I'm looking for a charger station, example:

Thanks!

You could always buy Apple's own 20W USB-C charger but Anker is, hands down, the best third party source anyone will recommend you. Their products are often mentioned on this website.

You might as well get the dual port version since you'll have two devices with two different cables. But you could also get their single port version which is their latest release.

Your links are redirecting me to Amazon UK search, so I am not sure which products do you have in mind.

Also I've heard somewhere in this forum that older chargers might not fast charge S7 ?

Anker is great but no review confirms yet that it can fast charge the S7 so you’ll have to wait a bit for that information to surface.
 
I was looking into this earlier. The series 7 comes with the new usbc to lightning fast charging cable but under the 20W charging brick it doesn’t say it’s compatible with the Apple Watch. I figure it is but they haven’t updated the site yet.

Also, from what I’ve read some are saying it doesn’t really charge at 40W / 20W each but 36W / 18W each which might matter to some.

Sorry about that. Here's screenshots of each of the two products I linked you to.

As others have noted, it has yet to be confirmed that the new Apple Watch 7 will quick charge with one of these third-party adapters but, if they don't, it'll be purely because of Apple's f**kery to push people to buy their adapter instead. These Anker adapters put out 20W so it should work as long as Apple doesn't deliberately interfere. The dual port puts out 20W per port.

Oh I've had a different type of charger in mind, sorry should've described it better.

I was thinking about a charging station.

For example:

It's very unlikely that Apple will drop a new adapter at this point so it'll definitely be the existing 20W that they offer. It's also the only adapter listed under the Apple Watch accessory section.

Not only will the S7 come with the USB-C cable, the SE now comes with the USB-C cable too -- which has me irked. Just today, I bought my mother an SE watch and I was expecting that she would use one of the many 5W bricks she has around the house. Nope! And since she doesn't own any USB-C devices I had to go out to Best Buy and purchase a stupid 20W brick. Apple basically duped me into needing to buy their 20W brick. Goes to show that they were full of shhh when they said they were going to stop including power bricks because we could simply use all the ones we've been accumulating over the years.

For example:
Ah, I see. Yeah, I'm not a charging station kinda guy so I am not sure which ones will offer quick-charging for both devices simultaneously. I think it's too early to be sure so we'll know more once the watch is out and all the tech reviews are in.
