Which is the best adapter for safe charging of iPhone 17? I’m not interested in fast charging as it makes the phone so hot and clearly isn’t good for it. I’m not in such a rush I need super fast. Is 10/15w ok?

I'd go with a good-quality 20W USB-C charger from Apple or a reputable brand like Anker or UGREEN. The iPhone will only draw the power it needs, so using a 20W adapter doesn't mean it's always charging at full speed. If you prefer slower charging, a 10–15W charger is also perfectly fine, especially for overnight charging, and may keep temperatures a bit lower. The important thing is using a reliable, certified charger rather than focusing only on the wattage.
