I have a Choetech 18W and MacBook Pro 87W chargers. iPhone X 11.3 beta 2 ... Im using
Baseus 3.3FT/1M Power Delivery USB Type C to Lightning Cables and for some reason I cannot come close to 50% charge in 30 min. I did a lot of research and its just frustrating. Can someone chime in here based on my setup(s)? Everything seems PD enabled. Thanks.

You need the official Apple cable.

Only Apple makes the USB-C to Lightning Cable. There are no "Made for iPod/iPhone/iPad" USB-C to Lightning cables.

You might not be able to charge your iOS device using USB-C power adapters that aren't manufactured by Apple.

And per the following note, any capable charger with Apple cable will work:
