Charger guide
Choose the right MacBook charger: USB-C vs MagSafe, the correct wattage for MacBook Air and Pro, and safe compatible options.
Modern MacBooks charge over USB-C Power Delivery (and newer ones add MagSafe 3).
Match the wattage to the model: MacBook Air ~30–35W, MacBook Pro 67–96W+.
A lower-wattage charger charges slowly and may not keep up under load.
Recent MacBooks charge via USB-C Power Delivery; newer models also support MagSafe 3 magnetic charging while still accepting USB-C. Either works as long as the wattage is right. Older MacBooks used MagSafe 1/2, which are different connectors.
Use a charger at or above your MacBook’s rated wattage. A 30W charger on a MacBook Pro will charge slowly and may not keep up while you work. A higher-wattage PD charger is safe — the MacBook draws only what it needs.
A USB-C PD charger works if it provides enough wattage for your model. Too little wattage charges slowly or not under load.
MacBook Air is around 30–35W; MacBook Pro models need 67W to 140W depending on size. Match or exceed the original wattage.
