This is the most elegant 2-in-1 I’ve seen to date, AND it fast charges iPhone (15W) and AW (5W). Price is steep and the only thing making me hesitate on grabbing one.

Edit: Also I wouldn’t mind a space gray option. Looks like it only comes in silver.

You can charge faster but phone batteries aren’t liquid-cooled like EVs, so heat generated during high-speed charging will degrade that battery over time. That’s just chemistry and physics.

Apple isn’t about to get burnt by battery lifespan issues a second time.
