On the M1 Pro, the supplied power brick is a USB-C charger. You can plug it either into the Magsafe port or the C ports on the laptop, and it works the same either way.
- cantSpellSober 4y agoMagsafe v3 supports PD 3.1, and the USB-C ports do not; this is not true
- Filligree 4y agoPerhaps, but it's charging at the same rate regardless.
- cantSpellSober 4y agoNo, the PD spec is much more than a wattage, "it's charging at the same rate" is not necessarily true
- Kirby64 4y agoLikely not, assuming they keep the same design for M1 Pros. On the 16" M1 Pros, you could do magsafe charging at 140W (using higher wattage negotiated USB PD), however the USB-C ports were limited to 100W (96W?) and did not offer the full 140W charging using USB-C.
- nfriedly 4y agoOn my 2021 MBP, I have to use the USB-C/MagSafe cable to get 140W charging. Using a USB-C to USB-C cable (with the same charger) gets 100W charging instead because of a limitation on the laptop side (USB PD 3.1 on the MagSafe port vs USB PD 3.0 on the USB-C ports). Hopefully they're fixed that for this iteration of MBP, but I haven't seen that explicitly claimed anywhere.
