The humble Apple iPhone is one of the most popular cell phones on the globe, and one content creator decided to put it to the ultimate test.

Using a mass of chargers versus just one outlet and cable, one man tested how long it took for the Apple product to show signs of life.

Two iPhones were put side by side, with similar conditions to make it fair.

However, the end result may come as a shock in more ways than one.

It was 100 versus 1 in the ultimate charger challenge

The struggle of having a phone that has run out of charge is a pain we all know too well, and waiting for the juice to kick in to Apple products can take precious time.

But thanks to one test, waiting ages for the little white Apple logo to appear after a phone completely dies could be a thing of the past.

Creator TechRax decided to test the real strength of an Apple charger in a rather unusual way.

Two iPhone 6S models were charged from 0 percent, one using 100 chargers at once, and the other, a single charger.

Optimized battery charging was turned off, alongside both iPhones having similar battery health.

In fact, if anything, the single-charger phone was at an advantage due to a slightly higher battery health percentage.

Now, you’d think that there was a clear winner here, but it turns out that everything wasn’t quite as expected.

Here’s what he really thought about the iPhone experiment

After plugging both chargers in, the 100 cable contraption gave an instant charge to the iPhone, whereas the single charger took a few minutes longer.

As the charging progressed, the 100 chargers took a clear lead, bumping the battery up quicker than the single charger.

However, it turns out that the speed wasn’t actually that impressive, and it proved to have just a mere 10 percent advantage over the single charger overall.

“Definitely not worth it, guys, don’t go ahead and try making 100 homemade chargers,” stated the creator.

The experiment ended with the 100 chargers bringing the iPhone to 97 percent, and the single charger creating 93 percent in the same amount of time.

So, stick with your single cable for steady, reliable charging.
