“Your MacBook will charge from USB-C power adapters not manufactured by Apple if they adhere to the USB Power Delivery specification,” Apple stated on an updated support page.

That’s not all that changed in relation to compatibility of Type-C USBs, they are also ready to be used for the following functions:

  • Third-party USB Type-C chargers, in addition to cables, can also be used; not limiting you like the previous MagSafe chargers used for other MacBooks.
