Charging Us watch in Europe (2024)

FAQs

Can I charge my Apple Watch in Europe without A converter? ›

You just need a plug adapter. Apple's power bricks are universal, and support any voltage between 110 and 240 volts, which covers pretty much the entire world. If using 3rd party power bricks consult their documentation for voltage support. If connecting to a USB or USB-C port directly, no adapter is needed.

It isn't just the voltage that's different in Europe. The wall outlets and sockets are also shaped differently, and can't accommodate American AC wall adapters or chargers without the right kind of adapter. For travel to Europe, you can find superior quality adapters for 110-to-220V at very reasonable prices.

An SE, or Series 8, or Ultra 1, or older model have a Canada, U.S., Mexico, Puerto Rico specific cellular radio, and WILL NOT work in the EU (or anywhere else in the world).

Yes, your watch will be fine. No power converter is required. Apple's chargers run on any voltage from 100 to 240 volts, so 220 is not a problem. Any of these adapters can also be used with a travel adapter in a different country.

The Apple-supplied charging equipment will accept 100 to 240 volts with only a plug adapter.

Use the Apple World Travel Adapter Kit

To charge your device, attach the correct AC plug adapter to your device's power supply. The Apple World Travel Adapter Kit works with any Apple USB, USB-C or MagSafe power adapter that has a removable AC wall adapter (also known as a duckhead).

To turn on international roaming, open the Settings app on your Apple Watch. Tap Cellular, then turn on Data Roaming. International roaming isn't supported on cellular models of Apple Watch that were set up using Apple Watch For Your Kids.

Where Apple Maps really shines, though, is when it is combined with an Apple Watch. Granted my test scenario isn't your typical, everyday one, but I can say that for traveling around random major European cities that you have no idea how to get around, Apple Maps on the Apple Watch is awesome.

Use the World Clock app on your Apple Watch to check the time in cities around the globe.

A: It's a USB cable that plugs into a USB port and accepts at most 5V. If you're most likely asking (or concerned) if it works in dual voltage USB chargers, either 120/240, then yes.

What happens if you charge your phone on 220V? ›

If you indeed tried to charge the phone with 220 volts ,You fried the guts of your phone.

All Apple products can run on 100 to 240 Volts AC, 50 or 60 Hz. All you need is a plug adapter.

You won't have any issues as Apple chargers are compatible 100V-240V, 50Hz and 60Hz. If you buy your charger in Europe, it will have the European prongs and you won't have any issue connecting your iPhone 14 using the cable supplied with your iPhone.
