Apple’s new iPhone models support rapidly charging. The iPhone 17, 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max can kill 50 % in just 20 minutes, while Slim iPhone Air needs 30 minutes to reach 50 % mark. It should not surprise you – but it should be disappointing to you – that Apple did the most apple style.
According to the official sunglasses, the 20 -minute time is achieved using Apple’s new 40W dynamic power adapter with 60W Max. First, this is a terrible name for a charger. Second, let’s be clear – this is a 40W charger that can provide 60W for a limited time (more than 15 minutes according to preliminary tests).
40W Dynamic Power Adapter with 60W Max
The important thing is that this charger uses a new adjusted voltage supply (AVS) protocol instead of the old program capable power supply (PPS). AVS device (iPhone, in this case allows) to request from 15V to 48V in 0.1V stages. Which is great for high -power devices, but good OLPS can easily handle 40W and even 60W.
The possibility is that whatever USB charger in your home does not support AVS – but it can support PPS. However, Apple’s new adapter is not a matter.

Charging Protocols are supported by Apple’s new 40W dynamic power adapter
Reddit user PRIVERBUCK Did you inspect a 40W dynamic power adapter with 60W Max and confirm that PPS has not been supported-just standard USB power delivery 3.0. This makes Apple’s new $ 39 charger less useful of any PPS -powered gadget that you may have.
The more pressing question is the opposite – can the iPhone 17 models get 50 % in 20 minutes using a USB PPS adapter in 20 minutes? And if that happens, will it do it effectively like an AVS -powered charger? This is something we have to examine.
