iPhone 11 Pro the first phone from Apple to include fast chargers
Apple has finally taken a call on its "daring" decision to switch to USB-C.
We have the most surprising news for you all, the iPhone launch event on 10 September was the fact that the iPhone 11 Pro and the iPhone 11 Max will have an 18 W fast charger in the box.
The iPhone users know the most impractical accessory bundled with Apple's expensive hardware is the 5 W charger. This little thing will get your iPhone XR, or XS juiced up, maybe, in a over 4 hours. That's terrible when you consider that Rs 15,000 phones with 4,000 mAh batteries, 30 per cent more than the ones in an iPhone, charge in a little more than 90 minutes.
Apple's disagreement for only including the slowest of chargers with the fastest phones in the world was that "people want small chargers." No, Mr Tim Cook, we don't want that. We want to charge our phones quickly and get back to binging on Netflix or drowning in Spotify using my wired headphones. Nobody prefers to spend 18k on wireless sets that sound worse than every other wired set I know about. And moreover, I should not be forced into spending around 4 hrs a day without my phone?
Apple has finally taken a call on its "daring" decision to switch to USB-C. The Pro iPhones will come bundled with a USB-C to Lightning cable (no USB-C to USB-C, but hooray for small mercies). Moreover, you have to carry one dongle less, and you can charge your iPad with the same charger.
So, I would say it's better late than never.
The iPhone 11 'Amateur' will still get a 5 W charger and USB-A to Lightning cable though. The Phone 11 Pro will start selling at Rs 71,000 approximately for the 128GB storage option and will go up to Rs 86,000 for the 512GB storage variant.
