Absolutely loved it when I received the 16e with a different charging cable but no plug 🙄they don’t even give you the plug so this is useless
I have been concerned about damaging my new 17 pro first iphone since 3> with the 65 watt charger i use for my Lenovo laptop. 20v 35a ???> very hard to read on charger. Charges pretty quick , no extra heat on phone or charger. Awfully confusing, hope I am not damaging phone by using wrong charger.
