Dont forget the 12 is first iPhone supporting fast charging, which none of the previous iPhone chargers supports. So if you want to utilize its full potential, you need to spend bucks.

Wait, that's absolutely not true. IPhone 8[0] was the first one that supported fast charging, and it didn't come with a compatible charger in the box. You had to use an 18W USB-C charger and a USB-C to lighting cable, neither of which were in the box. But the phone supported it. So the same argument was true for years and yet people behave as if it's new.

This is beyond false and way into absolute nonsense.

Been there since iPhone 8.

So if you have an iPhone 9, 10, or 11 charger that came with the phone, you can utilize fast charging for the 12?

Yes the same fast charging still works. It’s the same protocol and connector.
