December 9, 2020

Each iPhone comes with a lithium-ion battery. It helps to charge the iPhone faster. However, the time of charging depends on the quality of your charger, country of manufacture, and its power. Everyone who wants to buy an iPhone 11 is thinking about its battery life and which charger may be the best. There are many options on the market today. Designers and engineers can impress us with their new inventions like charger cases or powerful chargers that can charge your phone for a few minutes. When buying a new phone you are always interested in the right choice, so we collected the best ways to save iPhone 11 battery life and make it work well for a long time. 

How to choose the right charger for iPhone 11?

iPhones from iPhone 8 and later can be charged using USB Power Delivery adapters. The new iPhone 11 also supports high-speed charging, but here’s the trouble: it comes with a 5W power supply. You can buy an 18W USB power adapter by yourself. But there is the second problem: you also need a powerful power supply. Of course, the best choice is to buy an Apple production. It is qualitative, helps to charge the device fast, but it is expensive. Apple releases 18W, 30W, 61W, 87W chargers, and others. Of course, you can buy a charger for 87W, for example, but it makes no sense! There will be enough adapters for 18W. If you have a MacBook or MacBook Pro, you should buy such a charger, but not for iPhone 11. Otherwise, you risk destroying the battery capacity quickly. When using such a powerful charge, the power will affect the condition of the battery. Realizing new powerful chargers, Apple said:

“ Fast Charger can charge your iPhone 11 battery up to 50% for 30 minutes using the Apple USB-C Lightning cable and one of the 18W, 29W, 30W, 61W, or 87W Apple USB-C adapters.”

Generally, for half an hour the iPhone 11 charges up to 55%, for an hour to 84%. However, you should not buy an adapter for 30W and more for one reason – it charges the device equally. The 18W power supply charges the iPhone 11 up to 100% for 2 hours 16 minutes. At the same time, a 30W power supply charges the phone up to 100% for 2 hours and 15 minutes. There are no points between them and you shouldn’t overpay for a more powerful charger. By the way, you should not save money on a charger and USB cable. Otherwise, the battery life on the iPhone 11 may be broken. When buying an iPhone 11 you should take care of it. For example, you shouldn’t interrupt the process of charging, because it harms the battery. Then the accumulator will be quickly discharged and its capacity decreases. So if you don’t want to change the battery, you should take care of it. Generally, battery life consists of 300-400 cycles of full charging. To find the number of full chargings you should surf the Settings. 

These rules may help you to avoid some problems with chargers and batteries. Of course, it is very important to take care of the iPhone. Just keep these tips and be happy!
