Sure, but if they do have a USB C charger, is it the right voltage?
- moron4hire 6y agoVoltage is standardized

- nailer 6y agoI know with regular USB C (not USB C to lightning), it's definitely not standardized - some chargers output 5V, some 20V, some 45V. Are you saying lightning changes this?
- JustResign 6y agoUSB PD involves negotiation -- the charger doesn't just "push" 20V to a device that isn't asking for it.
- nailer 6y agoExactly. So: non-tech aware customer has a 5v USB 3 charger, buys an iPhone 12, and wonder why it charges 10x slower than their friend's new phone.
