Apple announced its seventh series, the Apple Watch Series 7 smartwatch, at the iPhone 13 launch. Coming with renewed sizes and various features, Watch Series 7 has been on sale since the past weeks and has started to reach users who pre-order.
With a new decision, the Cupertino-based manufacturer has now removed the charging adapter from its phone and other products. While this does not reflect negatively on people who already have a charger, it can be a disappointment for people who buy an Apple product from scratch. Here, Apple Watch Series 7 users are currently suffering from the same situation. So what are the fast charging requirements for the Watch Series 7?
To fast charge Apple Watch Series 7, at least 5 watt adapter is needed
Apple drew attention to the fast charging of the Watch Series 7 during the launch. According to the official statements made by the company, the new generation smart watch could fill from 0 percent to 80 percent in 45 minutes.
However, a supported power adapter is needed to charge in the promised time. Fortunately, Apple announced its fast charging requirements on a support page shortly after the product went on sale.
Accordingly, to fast charge your Watch Series 7 smartwatch, you will need Apple’s 18W or higher USB-C adapters. If you do not have an Apple model USB-C charging adapter, you can also use third-party chargers. The company puts at least 5W adapter limit in this. So with a 5W or higher adapter (if it supports USB-PD), you can charge the Watch Series 7.
Any USB-C cable is needed in addition to the power adapter. Fortunately, Apple at least provides convenience in this regard and places the necessary USB-C cable in the box of the watch. So for this you only need to buy a charging adapter that meets the requirements.
