How iPhone Handles Higher-Wattage Chargers
USB Power Delivery works through negotiation: the charger and phone communicate to agree on a safe voltage and current. An iPhone connected to a 45W, 65W, or even 100W PD charger will only pull the wattage it's designed for — the extra capacity simply goes unused. This is standard USB-C PD behavior and is not risky.
What Actually Is Risky
- Counterfeit or uncertified chargers that skip proper PD negotiation circuitry — these can deliver unsafe voltage spikes.
- Cheap cables without proper shielding, which can overheat under sustained fast charging.
- Non-PD "fast chargers" using proprietary fast-charge protocols not designed for iPhone.
The wattage number itself is not the danger — the certification and build quality are.

FAQs
Will a 45W charger overheat my iPhone?
No, as long as it's a genuine PD-compliant charger. iPhone regulates its own power draw.
Does Apple make a 45W charger?
No. Apple's lineup is 20W and 40W; 45W is used by Samsung and Google chargers.
Is it safe to charge iPhone with a Samsung or Google charger?
Yes, as long as it supports USB-C Power Delivery, which all listed chargers do.
