Beside this, is Apple 12w charger fast?
The 12W charger and all of the Apple USB-C chargers deliver nearly identical performance, charging the phone to 85 percent in about an hour and 20 minutes. That's an hour faster than the in-box charger.
Furthermore, what is the difference between 5w and 12w Apple charger? The Iphone can charge on 5W charger, USB port, and on the 10W iPad charger, difference is the time it takes to charge. You can use both, 12w will charge faster that's all. TThe 5w will work but will take a few hours from 5-10% to a 90-100% and 12w on iPhone will work, but will make your phone hit from charging so fast.
Herein, how many watts are iPhone Chargers?
You could use a Lightning connector plugged into a computer (via USB), an iPhone charger connected to a wall socket, or an iPad charger connected to a wall socket. A PC USB charger delivers 2.5 Watts of power (5 volts at 500 mA). An iPhone charger delivers 5 Watts (5 volts at 1000 mA).
