Dynamic Power
The Apple 40W Dynamic Power Adapter with 60W Max is a compact USB-C charger introduced in 2025 alongside the iPhone 17 series. It features innovative Dynamic Power technology, supporting USB PD 3.2 with Adjustable Voltage Supply (AVS), allowing it to intelligently deliver a sustained 40W output while boosting up to 60W in short bursts for accelerated charging speeds. Remarkably similar in size to Apple’s classic 20W adapter, with foldable prongs for enhanced portability, it provides many benefits of higher-wattage chargers in a pocket-friendly design. Ideal for fast-charging compatible devices like the iPhone 17 (up to 50% in around 20 minutes) or iPhone Air, it ensures efficient power delivery at home, in the office, or on the go, while prioritizing thermal safety and precise voltage adjustment for optimal performance.
Key Features
Dynamic Power Delivery
The Apple 40W Dynamic Power Adapter intelligently delivers a sustained 40W output while dynamically boosting up to 60W in short bursts, enabling significantly faster charging speeds for compatible devices like the iPhone 17 series without requiring a larger charger body.
Ultra-Compact Design
Remarkably similar in size to Apple’s longstanding 20W USB-C adapter, this charger achieves higher power capabilities in a pocket-friendly form factor, making it highly portable for use at home, in the office, or while traveling.
Foldable Prongs
Equipped with foldable wall prongs, the adapter enhances portability and storage convenience, allowing it to flatten for easy packing in bags or pockets without risking damage to the prongs.
Advanced USB PD 3.2 with AVS Support
As one of the first chargers to implement USB Power Delivery 3.2 with Adjustable Voltage Supply (AVS), it precisely adjusts voltage in fine increments for optimal efficiency, reducing heat and improving charging performance tailored to the device’s needs.
Accelerated Fast Charging for iPhone 17
When paired with iPhone 17 models, this adapter enables charging to 50% battery in approximately 20 minutes, providing a substantial speed improvement over previous generations and maximizing convenience for quick top-ups.

FAQs
Do I need the Apple 40W Dynamic Power Adapter to achieve the fastest charging speeds on the iPhone 17 series?
While the Apple 40W Dynamic Power Adapter is optimized for delivering the advertised 50% charge in approximately 20 minutes on compatible iPhone 17 models through its PD 3.2 AVS support, other third-party chargers rated at 40W or higher that support similar high-voltage PD profiles can achieve comparable fast charging performance without requiring Apple’s specific adapter.
Is the Apple 40W Dynamic Power Adapter compatible with older iPhones and other USB-C devices?
Yes, the adapter is fully backward compatible with previous iPhone models, iPads, MacBooks, and any USB-C PD devices. It will deliver power up to the device’s maximum supported wattage, such as 20W-30W for older iPhones, while maintaining efficiency and safety through standard PD protocols.
Does the adapter always output 60W, or when does it boost to the maximum?
The adapter sustains a reliable 40W output for most charging scenarios but dynamically boosts to up to 60W in short bursts during the initial high-demand phase of charging. It automatically steps down to 40W for thermal management and sustained loads to prevent overheating in its compact design.
