Hey all. I have been using the Macbook brick to charge my iPhone 12 ProMax, as the phone came with a USB-C input cable. It charges the phone insanely fast but also heats it up quite a lot. Do you think it is damaging to the battery? I reckon Apple has already approved such use but I couldn’t be sure. Thanks.

Hello there! It's not uncommon to use a MacBook charger to charge an iPhone with a USB-C input cable. While it does charge the phone faster, it's important to note that it also generates more heat than a standard charger. As for whether it's damaging to the battery, it's difficult to say for sure. Apple has designed its products to be used with a specific charger, and using a different charger could potentially impact the battery's lifespan. However, it's worth noting that Apple does make USB-C to Lightning cables and chargers that are compatible with the iPhone 12 Pro Max, so using one of those might be a safer bet. Ultimately, if you're concerned about the impact of using a MacBook charger on your phone's battery, it might be worth reaching out to Apple directly for their expert opinion.

To ensure optimal battery health, it's generally recommended to avoid exposing your iPhone to extreme temperatures, such as direct sunlight or excessive heat. If you notice that the phone gets uncomfortably hot or if you're concerned about battery health, you can switch to a standard charger or use a lower-power charging mode.
