Are you getting ready to buy the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro, or iPhone 17 Pro Max? You might be wondering:
- Does the iPhone 17 come with a charger?
- What kind of wall charger do I need for the iPhone 17?
- Will my old charger still work with the iPhone 17 Pro Max?
This guide covers you need to know about iPhone 17 chargers, from charging specs to the best accessories to buy in 2025.
Does the iPhone 17 Come with a Charger?
Most likely not.
Since the iPhone 12, Apple no longer includes a power adapter or wired earphones. This trend continues with the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max. In the box, you’ll typically find:
- iPhone 17 device
- USB-C to USB-C charging cable
- Quick guide and documentation
No iPhone 17 charger is included by default. If you don’t already own a compatible fast charger, you’ll need to buy one separately.
Why doesn’t Apple include a charger?
Apple cites environmental concerns—less packaging, fewer materials, and reduced e-waste. But that also means more consumers are left figuring out which charger is best.
What Charging Speed Does iPhone 17 Support?
The iPhone 17 supports up to 35W wired fast charging via USB-C, similar to the iPhone 16 Pro series. However, some industry sources suggest it may briefly reach 45W under certain conditions, though this peak is only sustained for a short period during the charging process.
Wired Charging
- Max speed: Up to 35W (USB-C PD required)
- Peak: May briefly hit 45W (adapter- and condition-dependent)
Wireless Charging
- Max speed: Up to 25W (Qi2.2 supported, charger-dependent)
- Supports MagSafe and third-party Qi2-certified wireless chargers
To achieve optimal performance, make sure your charger supports USB Power Delivery (PD) for wired charging or Qi2 / MagSafe protocols for wireless charging.

How to Extend Battery Life on Your iPhone 17
Having the right charger is great—but smart charging habits matter too.
How do you charge the iPhone 17 properly?
Follow these best practices:
1. Turn on Optimized Battery Charging
Settings > Battery > Battery Health & Charging > Optimize Battery Charging
This feature slows charging after 80% to reduce battery wear.
2. Avoid Charging in Extreme Temperatures
Don’t charge in direct sunlight or freezing conditions. Both heat and cold can degrade battery performance.
3. Don’t Let the Battery Hit 0%
Should I wait until my iPhone 17 is dead before charging?
No. Try to charge when it drops to around 20% to 30%.
4. Unplug After It’s Fully Charged
Leaving your phone on the charger all night can create heat and stress the battery.
5. Keep iOS Updated
Apple occasionally releases firmware updates that optimize charging efficiency.
