It's not that Apple can't do fast charging, but it's too confident, or a little arrogant.
- Science and Technology Hao Review
You must know that the iPhone 15 Pro Max is equipped with a battery of about 4400mAh, and its battery life can be equal to that of Android 5000, or even 5200mAh flagship mobile phone battery life.

Therefore, Apple is more confident, or a little arrogant, and the battery life management ability of the mobile phone system is unique in the industry, so they are not very willing to do fast charging.
So today, I'll talk to you about iPhone fast charging.
Let's start with Android
In fact, it is a forced choice for Android phones to do 100-watt fast charging.

Why?
First: The battery life management of Android phones is not so easy to do compared to iPhone, and the final effect is much worse than that of iPhone.
Second: Android mobile phones should make the battery as large as possible under the condition of controlling the volume of the body, but the battery technology will not progress rapidly in a short time, so increasing the charging power has become a more effective method.
Third: the consideration of market competition, if a manufacturer has launched a 100-watt fast charge, then other manufacturers can only follow, if not, it will lag behind others.
Everyone is sharing a cup of the Android ecosystem, and they are all standing on a starting line to compete.

Look at Apple again
On the other hand, the iPhone is more about comparing with its previous generation, and at most with Samsung, after all, Apple and Samsung have been the world's second largest for a long time.
Therefore, in the idea of improving the battery life of the mobile phone, the iPhone is more about optimizing the power consumption between the chip and the system, and at the same time, each generation slowly increases the battery capacity, but increasing the charging power is the last or second direction of Apple's consideration.
This is one of the reasons why many iPhone users feel that the battery life is okay and do not have serious battery life anxiety because of the lack of 100-watt fast charging.
According to Hao Ping's observation of friends and family around him, they basically plug in the cable or use it directly on the wireless charger when they go to work, and then charge it overnight when they go to bed at night.

But having said that, Android's million-level fast charging is indeed convenient for users to make emergency charges, such as forgetting to charge the phone the night before, and the time to brush your teeth and wash your face in the morning can be fully charged;
For example, if you need to go out temporarily, you may be able to charge 50 or 60 percent of it in 10 minutes.
I have to say that this will indeed bring a certain degree of security to most mobile phone users, including Hao Ping himself.
To some extent, it does eliminate some of the range anxiety.
Why part of it?
Because there is no solution in one case, that is, when you are outdoors, such as Hao Ping in the two days of Lushan and Sanqing Mountain, which are beautiful outdoor plays, at this time, the battery life or power-off speed of the mobile phone itself is more reliable than the 100-watt charging power, which can give people a sense of security.

No matter how high your charging power is, you can't find a place to charge, it's useless, even if you have a power bank, it is relatively slow to charge power, or not very convenient.
But there is one thing to say, it's 2024, and Apple's global share has continued to decline in the past two quarters, whether it is the Chinese market or the U.S. domestic market.
Hao Ping believes that Apple really should and should increase the charging power as soon as possible, whether it is based on the consideration of retaining the current inherent users, or trying to attract users in the Android ecosystem.
In fact, the user's requirements are not so high, and there is no need to engage in 100-watt power like domestic Android.
Let's just say that you are not benchmarking Samsung in the international market, so can you do Samsung's 40W level of medium charging?

This can achieve more than 60% charging in 20 minutes, and to a certain extent, it can also meet the emergency power supply needs of most users.
Fortunately, it was revealed that the iPhone16 Pro series will have a 40W fast charge Hao Ping hopes this is true, what do you think?
I don't know if you are using an iPhone, or other excellent Android flagship phones in China?
Do you think it's better to have excellent battery life management on the mobile phone itself, or is it better to have fast charging with 100 watts of power?
Science and technology are not boring, Hao Ping has new ideas, here is Hao Ping of Science and Technology, digital evaluation, sharing and popular science for ordinary people to see, welcome everyone to leave a message for exchange, friendly discussion, if it helps you, it would be great.
