Apple 20W USB-C Power Adapter (A2305)

The default iPhone brick — outclassed by 30W rivals at the same price. At $19, Apple's 2020 model sits among the cheapest we cover — the USB Chargers we compare run from $19 to $119.99. It scores 5.1/10 overall, calculated from published specifications across 8 categories rather than from a subjective impression.

Its strongest showing is Power Sharing at 10.0/10 — how well it holds wattage when several ports are in use — the spec buyers most often get caught by. The weakest is Features at 2.0/10, which is the trade-off to weigh before buying: if that is the specification you care about most, one of the alternatives below will serve you better.

Worth knowing before you buy: only 20W, and no GaN — the 30W Anker and UGREEN cost the same and are smaller; and no PPS at all, so it will not fast-charge Samsung or Pixel phones properly. Every specification on this page comes from Apple's own documentation or a verified retail listing — where a figure is not published, the table says so rather than estimating it.
