We've been using Apple's 10W power adaper to charge an iPhone 11 but would like to get it charged faster, and as far as I've found out it can benefit from up to 18W (which I assume means I should go for a charger at least 18W, but more is fine -though something like 65W would be a total waste of money). Correct so far?
This means I could buy Apple's 20W USB-C charger (being Apple I wouldn't risk runing my warranty in case something goes wrong with the phone, even though I believe reputable brands such as Belkin might be OK, but maybe still not as far as Apple is concerned).
I'm also wondering about the USB-C cables:
1) Is there a specific reason we're seeing only (as far as I've seen) USB-C cables for quick chargers? Do they carry additional wires or something else which USB-A cables don't?
(We already have several quality Lightning to USB-A cables, and it's a shame to waste them by buying yet another cable).
2) Provided there's a reputable brand involved, are there differences between Lightning to USB-C cables?
I ask because I read the following here:
