Which chargers are compatible with Iphone?

Some time ago Apple stopped including power adapters in the boxes of its mobile devices and this generated a lot of comments due to the extra cost involved, since without charging, the mobile does not work. However, it does include the charging cable.

The fact that the charger is not manufactured by the same brand of the cell phone does not mean that it is worse or will damage the device, in fact you can use any charger USB C charger with the sufficient power marked by the manufacturer.

In this post we are going to talk about the characteristics that must be met and the models that you can find on our website or in Digitalome stores that distribute Iphone chargers.

What should you consider before buying the power adapter for your Iphone?

Although it may seem like a simple or unimportant accessory, using an adapter that matches the charging needs of your device will help extend its life.

Remember that, Apple cell phones have a Lightning port input so one end of the charging cable must be Lightning, the other end we recommend that it is USB Type C.

In the market you can find the cables and power adapters separately or in a pack with both included. The cable is the most fragile charging component and may have to be replaced before the adapter due to breakage of the protective fiber.
