Hey!

I'm wondering if the iPhone 7 can accept 12W or is still only able to accept 10W. I have not been able to find any data on this. Does somebody know/ could test?

The iPhone 6/6s maximum input power was 10W (most people were under the impression it was 12W, but only iPads could take those extra 2W)

It's a sorta nit picky thing, but I want to know if I can speed things up a little by using 12W over 10W power bricks. 20% is something.
 
I can push my 7 to use 11w. I presume it's the same as the 6/6s where the battery only ever gets 6w max. Any extra is used to power the device so the battery gets 6w even when the device is under heavy use.
