iPhone 16 and iPhone 17 both use USB-C, so any charger and cable you own from an iPhone 15 or 16 works without buying anything new. A genuine Apple 20W USB-C charger at AvaNext costs PKR 3,800–5,700 and is fully compatible with both models.
Quick answer for upgraders
If you're moving from iPhone 16 to iPhone 17, your existing USB-C charger and cable carry over directly — no new purchase needed unless your current cable is worn. Browse Apple 20W USB-C Fast Charger and the Cables collection.
FAQs
Does iPhone 17 charge faster than iPhone 16? Both support similar peak charging speeds (around 20–30W) with a USB-C Power Delivery charger; real-world differences are minor.
Compatibility at a Glance
| From → To | Charger Compatible? | Cable Compatible? |
|---|---|---|
| iPhone 16 → iPhone 17 | Yes | Yes (USB-C to USB-C) |
| iPhone 15 → iPhone 17 | Yes | Yes (USB-C to USB-C) |
| iPhone 14 → iPhone 17 | Charger yes, cable no | Need new USB-C to USB-C cable |
What Actually Changed
Apple did not change the charging port or connector standard between iPhone 15, 16, and 17 — all use USB-C. The main charging-relevant differences across generations are minor increases in peak charging wattage support, not a new cable standard.
Should You Upgrade Your Charger Anyway?
If your current charger is 20W and you want to shave a few minutes off charging time, a 30–45W GaN charger like the Samsung 45W USB-C PD (PKR 4,200) or Google 30W bundle (PKR 3,499) offers modest gains — but it's optional, not required.
Original vs Fake — Quick Check
- Model number: Genuine Apple 20W adapters print A2305 or A2705 — see our serial number verification guide.
- Cable wear: If your current cable is 2+ years old and frays or feels loose, replace it even if the charger is fine.
