I have been wondering about something that not a single creator as touched on yet. Can any charger charge this laptop? Say, if i visit a friend and the only charger he has is a 5volt 1amp (5w) usb A to usb C charging brick laying around. Would that be able to charge the device? I recon since its only 5watt i would have to turn the pc off, but would it actually charge or would the laptop 7 simply refuse the charger and not charge at all? Personally i have many old chargers from phones, tablets and some that i have bought seperatly, most of which is the old usb A chargers. I would absolutly love it if you made a video, trying different usb A and usb C charging bricks to see what actually gives it a charge and what does not.
You can use a USB charger, but it should be 60 watts if battery is drained, anything lower will work, but a low 5 or 10 watt and running, I don't believe it would keep up. Smallest I would go is 18W.
@@60Grit thank you for your quick responds! Would a 5W charger charge it if you close the lid? I am only asking as a "last resort" if i am not bringing my own charger. The laptop i have now will not allow anything less than 65W, even if the device is off... That sucks because that kind of forces me to bring my own 20V charger, as most people dont have that
Yes, if you are comparing the MacBook Air to MacBook Pro comment, there are a difference. The size and screen, what I meant by that in a lot of cases the MacBook Air 15 works great for most people.

It would take forever to charge it, but it would recognize the 5w
@@60Grit glad to hear it. Thank you!

It's 3:2. MacBooks are 16:10. It's a big design difference.
