How about Apple Apple charger brand introduction

Recommended models: Apple A1695, Apple A1401, Apple A1882 30W PD fast charging, Apple 61W/87W PD fast charging
 
Apple's iPhone, iPad are the industry's benchmark products, the status is needless to say, in addition to these 3C digital products, Apple's official website on the 3C accessories are also a lot of products, including chargers, data cables, mobile phone cases/covers and other goods.
 
OEM production is the status quo of the charger industry, Apple is no exception, the charging head that comes standard with Apple mobile phones, that is, the most common foundries of 5W chargers are Flextronics, Yada, Lite-On Technology, and Serkang.
 
Although the PD protocol has incorporated the Qualcomm QC standard, other third-party PD fast charging on the market will generally be compatible with QC, but Apple, which has always been a maverick, is obviously not among them. Judging from the evaluation results of a variety of products, Apple's original charger only supports PD protocol, and the rest such as QC3.0/2.0, Huawei SCP/FCP, etc. are not supported, and some products are not even compatible with Apple's own 5V/2.4A standard, which is used for Android devices with a maximum power of 15W, which is not as good as the QC standard. In other words, if you don't have a newer Apple device or a laptop that supports PD fast charging, it's not really suitable to buy an Apple PD charger.
 
Apple's original charger also has a problem is the price, Apple products have always been known for their fine workmanship and excellent quality, but the price is undoubtedly quite "Apple": conventional 5W/12W non-fast charging has reached the price of 150 yuan, and PD fast charging above 60W has soared to more than 500 yuan, and there is only one charging port.
 
Another point to remind is that Apple's PD fast charging function is not only enough with a charger, but also needs a 150 yuan Apple PD fast charging line, compared with many third-party PD multi-port fast charging on the market below 150 yuan, the price range of Apple chargers is obviously not attractive to most people.
 
But for the original party and heavy brand fans, Apple's original charger still has its value, and Apple's PD fast charging is mostly a detachable converter design, which is also more suitable for users running around the world, no matter where they are, they only need to replace the corresponding specifications of the converter head.
 
Apple has a small number of products on sale, according to the maximum output power can be divided into5W/12W/18W/30W/61W/87W specifications, all of which are single-port chargers, 18W and above specifications support PD protocol, and the price is more than 150 yuan.
 
Apple A1695 18W charger is made by Yada, does not use a detachable converter design, is a conventional in-line charger, only supports USB PD fast charging protocol, 5V/3A, 9V/2A two working voltages, Apple 2.4A, QC2.0/3.0, FCP/SCP and other fast charging protocols are not supported, iPhone X and later models can turn on fast charging mode. From the dismantling point of view, A1695 pays attention to the materials, the workmanship is excellent, and the internal semiconductor components are made of international first-line products, including PI integrated chips, Cypress PD protocol chips, and the performance is guaranteed, but the price of 249 yuan is not low, and the power of 18W is not too big.
 
If you have an Apple device that does not support PD fast charging (non-iPad Pro series, iPhone8 before the mobile phone), the 12W power of the Apple A1401 is enough, the maximum support is 5V/2.4A output, the performance actually does not have too many highlights, but the price is also about 150 yuan, in all fairness, its cost performance is very low.
 
Fast charging with more than 30W power is more suitable for users who have iPad Pro and notebooks, and there are currently three specifications on sale30W/61W/87W, priced at 349/499/599 yuan. Among them, Apple's new 30W fast charging A1882 is used to replace the old version of the 29W specification, the performance has been upgraded, and the working voltage has been increased to 5V/3A, 9V/3A, 15V/2A, 20V/1.5A four gears, and the old version of the 29W adapter only has two gears of 5.2V/2.4A and 14.5V/2.0A.
