iPhone 16 39W charging is not fast enough to beat Galaxy S24 Ultra
Apple iPhone 16 reportedly supports faster charging than the iPhone 15 series. The company never discloses charging support in watts on official product sites. Well, the iPhone 16 seemingly supports 39W fast charging, which is still less than the Galaxy S24 Ultra.
According to the info, Apple brought 39W charging support to the iPhone 16 series. Reports are circulating of 45W fast charging functionality. However, practical testing (via IceUniverse) indicates that the max charging speed is 39W.
CQC results suggest that the iPhone 16 features 45W wired charging. This is about 50% faster than the iPhone 15 series, which supports up to 29W charging. Meanwhile, the maximum support is 39W as tested by reliable industry sources.
Samsung continues to bring 45W charging support in select Galaxy devices. The Galaxy S24 Plus, S24 Ultra, and M55 are some of those. It’s not much higher than the 39W but shows Samsung is already ahead of Apple’s boosted charging function.
The newest S24 series is designed with convenience in mind and super fast charging is a key part. To ensure you can make the most of the S24’s rapid charging capability, there are some requirements for that such as compatible adapter and cable.
Packed with a 5000mAh battery, Samsung’s S24 Ultra typically takes around 78 minutes to fully charge from 0% using a 45W charger. Various factors can impact the charging speed and time to get the battery charged 100%.
Next year, Samsung will launch the Galaxy S25 Ultra. Early rumors indicate that there will be no charging upgrade in the Plus and Ultra models. Yet, we expect improvements in that particular aspect through artificial intelligence.

Meet the most gorgeous iPhone ever: Nothing changed in 3 years
Yesterday Apple launched the iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro Max. At first glance, Apple’s “most gorgeous iPhone ever” looks identical to the last three or four models – but a second glance also doesn’t change the view.
The most “oops” iPhone ever
iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max are the best of Apple. The company doesn’t want to renovate its best, therefore continuing the identical design approach for years. The iPhone 13 Pro Max seems iPhone 16 Pro Max with a silicon cover installed.
Over the iPhone 13 Pro Max, the iPhone 16 Pro Max brings a major innovation. The company ditched the traditional notch in favor of a punch-hole pill-shaped display cutout. This innovation debuted with the iPhone 14 Pro two years ago.
Apple also reduced the thickness of bezels, which is a groundbreaking decision. After the Action Button, the US tech giant debuted another button with the iPhone 16. Entitled Camera Control, it helps users control certain features of the camera.
The most gorgeous iPhone, the iPhone 16 Pro, features a triple rear camera setup on the back. The module is placed on a squarish island with rounded corners. Three sensors accompanied with LED flash and ToF sensor.
Apple continued to uplevel iPhone experiences with each generation. The design changes are tough in iPhones due to the arrangement of components. However, these limitations aren’t impossible to solve but require a will to enhance.
