This is my first time hearing this
It's not something to jailbreak. You need a USB type c to lightning cable and a charger from them that has a getting wattage. Together that's $84. They could've included that shyt. Everyone else does.
So there's another way to charge your phones besides what's included the box?
On the 8 and X you have a rapid charge capability if you have the fast charger and cable which are not included with the phone. Not on the 7 or older series though. Industry standard practice is to include the fast charger with the phone.
droid been had wireless charging
apple playing catchup, pretending they innovating.
Normally phone makers give you the fast charging capable power supply and cable in the box as the only charger. But Apple is giving you regular chargers and charging for the fast charging hardware smh. Fast charging would charge an iPhone to 50% in 30 mins
Is this real 
If the 8 and X are anything like the rest of the Iphones.
The "regular charger" is fast on its own. I get a full charge on my iPhone 7 in about 90 minutes. Which is already faster than my wife gets with her galaxy edge using the "fast" charger.
So is this some new stuff to iPhones? Will the 8 and x charge slower than the 7 without you paying for the upgrade?
If not then this is extra, and I don't see a problem with them charging for it.
Wait. This is for wireless charging?you thought wireless charging CAME FREE?
GTFOH
Arcadium being idiots as usual

I don't know if 90 minutes is accurate, but I know my 6S+ charges fast as well.
Charging extra for the fast charging is whack regardless though but it's a minimal complaint that wouldn't affect my day to day use of the phone.
I've never sat and timed it. But I've estimated that I get about one percentage point per minute.
Whatever it is I know it's a hell of a lot faster than my wife's phone even using her "fast charger"
When she doesn't use a fast charger that shyt takes like 4-5 hours
I'm just saying the technology is different. If IPhones were like Samsungs and took 4-5 hours to charge without the "fast" charger, then I'd understand the problem.
Just because they are calling it a "fast" charger doesn't make it an apples to apples comparison to what's on offer by other manufacturers.
Samsung uses old tech for fast charge. They use Fast charge 2 and the tech is on 4 now.If the 8 and X are anything like the rest of the Iphones.

That's why it's ridiculous that some people are sheep and only use apple products.
iOS and MacOS, have dozens of features that were first on Windows or Android and go unnoticed most of the time.
But when the same feature makes it to apple its so innovative.
This thread is why I can't mess with Apple, and I feel bad for their consumers "what is fast charging" "Samsung uses old fast charging" Apple makes it where you can't stay up to date with tech and the benefits you can get, brehs are using old tech and paying a premium price and really don't even know it, Apple is still pushing 1080 displays on their iPhone 8, like really.
