You may or may not know it, but fast charging has been possible on iOS since the iPhone 8's release. Despite this, the charger Apple ships in the box doesn't allow it, and upgrading to a fast USB-C charger and cable wasn't always affordable. Thankfully, that's since changed as now other companies can produce MFi-certified Lightning to USB-C cables and offer them at much better prices.
Take this 3-foot RAVPower USB-C to Lightning Cable for instance. It's normally available for just $14, whereas the official Apple version of this cable is nearly $20 at Amazon. Thanks to a limited-time price drop, you can save even further today and pick up RAVPower's cable for only $6.54. That saves you over 50% compared to its usual price.

That's compared to Apple's 2M cable for $33 which is the same length and offers the same charging speeds at almost three times the price.
