What's the likelihood of Apple keeping 20W as the minimum requirement for fast charging on the 13 Pro? I've never bought a fast charging accessory before as I've found wireless charging so convenient, but I want to upgrade to the 13 Pro when it comes out, and I also want to fast charge my XS for the next few weeks as the battery is really starting to show its age now and is becoming a problem.

I can either wait until September to be certain, or buy a fast charger now and if 20W is kept as the minimum, then I'm already prepared for the 13 Pro!
 
I have the 12 Pro Max which of course didn’t come with the 20W adapter. I’m with Verizon, so I ordered their 30W adapter before my phone arrived. I have yet to use it, as I use one of my many 5W adapters from previous iPhones. It will come in handy when I need the fast charge.
 
I'm using a 30w Samsung block on my 12pm. I love it. I do not plug it in overnight. It only needs about 45min in the morning to charge to about 97% by the time I finish my coffee.
 
I’ve been using 20w chargers with my 12PM since day one and never had any issue. I am hella sure Apple is going to stick to playing it safe when it comes to charging so the 20w might be the norm from now on. Ain’t like they’re including any fast chargers.
