WHERE CAN I BUY A MACBOOK AIR 13 INCH CHARGER PRO
New MacBook Pro Fast Charging Requirements These charging speeds have long been supported on the iPhone, of course, but an iPhone battery is also a fraction of the size of the battery found in any MacBook, much less the one that’s the king of all MacBooks. The most powerful charger is particularly important considering Apple’s promise to allow a 16-inch MacBook Pro to fast charge up to 50% in about 30 minutes.

While early rumours suggested Apple would use this to make its iPhone chargers smaller, we can now see that it had something else in mind. While the 140W power brick is still something of a behemoth, it would be considerably larger if Apple were using traditional silicon rather than relying on GaN. What’s particularly notable about the new and more powerful 140W adapter is that it’s the first of Apple’s power bricks to take advantage of the new Galium Nitride (GaN) technology that it’s had in the works since early last year. It’s available separately for $99 in case you want to pick up an extra one, although you probably won’t need that much power for anything else in Apple’s lineup.īy contrast, the 14-inch MacBook Pro comes with a 67W adapter in its base $1,999 configuration - the one with the scaled-down 8-core M1 Pro chip - however bumping that up to even the mid-range M1 Pro will net you the 96W USB-C power adapter instead. The new 16-inch MacBook Pro now includes a 140-watt USB-C Power Adapter, which puts out nearly 50 percent more power than the 96W adapter that was previously at the top of its lineup.

Alongside the powerful new MacBook Pro lineup that Apple unveiled yesterday, the company has also just unveiled the highest-power USB-C charging brick that it’s ever made - perhaps a testament to how much power these new MacBooks Pro really need to do their thing.
