With most Apple diehards likely to have purchased either an iPhone XS or iPhone XS, making sure that they are juiced up all the time is a concern. There will be times when batteries may run low, depending on use, meaning having a trusty charger is a need.

This despite these new iPhones owning larger batteries compared to prior models, ones that are expected to last longer. However, it also means that charging them may take some time - hinting that some may have to leave their devices idle for some time.

According to 9to5mac.com, the charger that comes bundled with one's iPhone XR or iPhone XS is not any faster than the standard 5 W chargers that Apple normally includes. A remedy suggested is to buy a higher-rated charger such as the ones used on iPads. The 12 W brick charger will reportedly speed up the charging times for one's iPhone and make sure that the device's use can be maximized.

By default, the stock phone charger that comes with the latest iPhones from Apple will take up to 4 hours to fully charge the device. With a 12 W charger, batteries can reportedly be charged by 50-percent in just 44 minutes.

For folks are not content and want faster charging, an 18 W charger is the maximum one can get since it is the maximum for an iPhone XS and iPhone XR can accommodate. Going beyond that would be useless since any additional wattage will make no difference.

This only applies to people who need a reliable charger when they are on the go. Depending on how one uses their device, the power stocked dilapidates variably. While most criticize the default 5 W charger included when one buys an iPhone XS or iPhone XR, having one is better than nothing. The bottom line is that folks who need a higher grade charger will need to invest a little bit more to do so.

Of course, there is also another way to make sure that the latest iPhones from Apple last longer. Apple.com provides several tips to help owners manage their devices. Below are some of them.

  1. Make sure that your iPhone is running on the latest iOS.
  2. Avoid exposing your iPhone to ambient temperatures higher than 35-degrees.
  3. Charge your device without a protective casing to avoid excess heat.
  4. In cases where the device will not be used for a long period of time, make sure that you leave it with at least 50-percent charge.
  5. Enable Low Power Mode and keep track of your phone's battery by monitoring battery usage information.
