I use dell, Lenovo, & apple PD chargers interchangeably without issues.
- IshKebab 5y agoYou can charge a laptop with a mobile phone charger. It just charges really really slowly (or probably not at all if you're actually using it).
- llampx 5y agoDepends on the charger and on the laptop whether that works.
- disiplus 5y agoi could not charge my late 2016 pro with my huawei charger (45w)
- hadlock 5y agoThe 2016 model will charge in sleep mode on a 30w charger, it's just glacially slow, 2-3% per hour at best. 65W seems to be the universal standard for day-to-day use with laptops.
- nikau 5y agoGenerally it has to be usb-pd and 45W or more in my experience.
