Some 7.5W Wireless Fast Chargers Limited to 5W as of iOS 13.1

I don’t even care. Charging at 5w will generate less heat, even though I have a supposed 7.5 watt charger. Don’t know if it is limited or not, but if I need a quick boost I’ll plug it in to the iPad brick.

I did spend an extra 10 bucks for this though.:oops:
 
On my Zen Apple Optimized stand and Iphone XS Max ios 13.1 ( https://www.makezens.com/shop/zens-ultra-fast-wireless-charger-stand-optimized-for-apple-iphone/ ) i plugged my smart wifi plug to monitor the power consummed and with some basic rest call dump the valus on a chart and voila :

at start, full speed 8.5 W, 20 minutes later power decreased to below 7 W then went up again. I guess the heat...

Ps: i have apple leather case.

but this means it only charges the phone with about 5w.

The efficiency with Qi is only about 60%. So if it takes about 8w out of the plug, it will charge your phone with about 5w.

There is an Android phone (new Mate 30) that charges at 27W. The new Note 10+ can wireless charge at 15W, and wired, up to 45W.

Yea it's ridiculous it's been max 7.5 for so long. They need to get their butts in gear wireless charging wise if they seriously want me to buy a portless iPhone someday.
