The iPhone charger is gone. But what will replace it? That’s the question. Apple stunned everyone when they decided to exclude a charging with the iPhone 12 last year. While Apple still included a charging cable, it’s a USB-C to lightning cable which doesn’t work with your existing charging brick.

If you still have the old 5W USB-A chargers, you can still use them with their cables (USB-A to Lightning cable). But in 2021, 5W is super slow; you should get yourself a new USB-C fast charger instead which is 3 times faster.

With a USB-C charger, you need a USB-C to lightning cable for iPhone or USB-C to USB-C cable for Android devices. So what are your choices now?
