It's funny (or sad I guess) that the current generation of laptops are back on mag chargers (I forget what they're called) instead of USB C. There was never a time when both iPhones and MacBooks used USB C charging.

you can use either the magsafe or USB-C PD, both works

Sorry, should've clarified I meant the one that came with it in the box

The cable that comes in the box is MagSafe, but the power brick is usb-c

Sorry, should've clarified I meant the end of the cord that comes in the box that you're meant to plug into the laptop

I don't have one, but I thought the user could either do magsafe or a usb-c to a laptop, either way will charge.

Haven't used that charger since day 1 of receiving my work MBP M1. I just plug it into a Thunderbolt dock that supports usb-pd
