Yeah, AdaFruit¹ seems to agree:<p>“<i>Lastly, there’s an upgraded switched power source that goes up to 2.5 Amps instead of just 2 Amps - allowing your Pi to power even more powerful devices over USB ports.<p>Note: Our 5V 2A power supply still works great with the Pi 3.  For most uses, you don&#x27;t need 2.5 amps of power and our 5V2A supply should be sufficient.</i>”<p>Still, it would be nice if they <i>did</i> make&#x2F;source a generic USB wall adapter that can supply 2.5 A of current. Hopefully, this new Raspberry Pi will increase the demand for such a thing.<p>――――――<p>¹ — <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.adafruit.com&#x2F;product&#x2F;3055" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.adafruit.com&#x2F;product&#x2F;3055</a>
