You can use an iPhone 8 fast charger to get 50% of your iPhone 8 battery in about 30 minutes. You need to use a special charger and a special USB C to Lightning cable. We’ll show you the best iPhone 8 fast chargers. These can fast charge the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus.

This walks you through how to fast charge the iPhone 8 or iPhone X, which requires a special type of charger and a special USB C to Lightning cable. You’ll spend about $40 for this feature, even if you buy the third-party options that are cheaper than what Apple sells in stores and online.

The benefits of fast charging mean that you can get a 25% charge in 15 minuted and a 50% charge in 30 minutes. Most users won’t need to replace all of their cables with this kind of setup, but a fast charger in the car or at your office is going to be a life saver on busy days when battery life is at a premium.

We also plan to carry a fast charge backup battery in our bag and to pack one of these fast chargers while traveling so that we have it to charge the iPhone 8 up faster in an airport or when on a quick break between meetings.

We’ve hand picked the best iPhone 8 fast chargers you can buy. If you have a newer MacBook with USB C charging, you already have one of the chargers that works, but if you are buying one, look past Apple’s super-expensive options and you’ll find a lot of handy USB -PD chargers that can charge your iPhone 8 faster.
