I am looking to buy a fast charger which supports up to 20 watt.
will be using it with android and iphone. also with wireless charging pad.
also have no idea on how much to should I spend on this. locally one shop suggested to get the iphone charger which cost 2k. don't even know if its original or not as it can be a duplicate one.
 
I boiught a Mi SoInic charger 28W for 450 a while ago and it works just fine. Would suggest the same
 
iPhone follows USB-PD for fast charging. So if you get any other fast charger, it would not fast charge iPhone.
 
I will be connecting it to the wireless fast charging which I think is 15 to 18 watt.
It would still be only 7.5W with Qi charging pads ! For 15W wireless charging speed, you need MegSafe charger.

Edit: If you can list what Android device you would be using this charger to charge; we may find something which works for both ecosystems.

Stick to USB PD chargers only.. They aren't particularly expensive now either..
A good 20Wshould be about 1K and a good 65W should be just above 2K
USB PD is universal..

Chinese OEMs like Mi tend to use custom fast charge protocols so best avoided
 
One more point to add; 2 persons I know are using charger from Samsung M51 and Samsung A71 to fast charge iPhone 12 and iPhone 11 respectively. You just need type-c to lightening cable for that.
 

Bought this Oct, 2020. Failed after a few months. Don't buy this obviously.
I bought the same Mi 27w charger in Jan'21. It works fine. It is used daily.

There was some price error at that time. So, I bough two, one kept for reserve. :p
