The launch of the new iPhone 12 models is being prepared in all countries. Some were more fortunate and the iPhone 12 it is already in stores, while in other countries the "third wave" is expected. In Eastern European countries, starting from November 6, 2020 iPhone 12 will be available for pre-order, with deliveries to begin a week later.

As it is rumor, the launch event of new iPhone models, Apple he told us clearly that in the new box iPhone 12 we won't find one feeder / plug charger si casti. The company justified that in this way the volume of waste from these ancillary accessories will be significantly reduced and in addition, a smaller box will allow the company to deliver up to 70% more devices on one pallet. In addition, almost everyone has a charger from an older phone in their home.
In reality, this decision of Apple to remove the charger and costs, is to not increase the final price of the iPhone.

It's good that next to the iPhone 12, in the box, Apple put us one cable USB-C la Lightning. Here is a problem. Most of the chargers in people's homes are from USB-A (old model). So far, Apple only launched two iPhone models with chargers USB-C, and these no later than last year. iPhone 11 Pro si iPhone 11 ProMAX are the only ones who received these chargers with USB-C.

Charging cable from USB-C la Lightning it won't help you much, if you haven't had a device in the past Apple with plug charger USB-C to use for the iPhone 12. You need to buy a new charger and be very careful because it must meet the standards Apple and to be MFI. That's so you don't wake up with messages like "This cable or accessory is not certified and may not work reliably with this IPhone", About which I wrote here.

Which chargers USB-C plug and wireless are compatible with the new iPhone 12, iPhone models 12 mini, iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max

For iPhone 12iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 12 Pro si Pro Max is enough a battery charger USB-C of at least 20W. It will ensure a 50% charge of the iPhone in approximately 30 minutes.
They can be used without problems and loaders Apple up to 96W. For example, if you have a USB‑C Power Adapter 96W from the one MacBook Pro, you will be able to use it safely to charge any iPhone 12 model. In an older article I wrote what are the chargers Apple compatible on multiple devices-hate.
We do not recommend you to buy low cost chargers or from obscure brands. Before buying an iPhone wall charger, check if it has the MFi (Made for iPhone) certification of Apple.

Wireless charging of can do with MagSafe up to 15w and whatever Qi wireless MFi charger up to 7.5W.

Of course, if you have a iPad Pro you can charge your iPhone 12 by direct connection using the cable USB-C /  Lightning. iPad Pro will become an external charger for iPhone 12.

I am happy to share my experiences in the field of computers, mobile phones and operating systems, to develop web projects and to bring the most useful tutorials and advice. I like to "play" on the iPhone, MacBook Pro, iPad, AirPort Extreme and on operating systems macOS, iOS, Android and Windows.
