MacBook Cables

Yes. MacBook models that have a MagSafe 3 port also have Thunderbolt/USB-C ports, and your Mac can charge over either — using whichever source provides the most power. A USB-C cable with USB Power Delivery is a perfectly valid alternative for everyday charging, though MagSafe 3 supports higher wattage on some models and adds the safety benefit of the magnetic disconnect. One important note: connecting chargers to more than one port simultaneously does not charge your MacBook faster — it will simply use the most powerful source available.

MacBook Pro models with M1 Pro, M1 Max, M2 Pro, M2 Max, M3 and later chips include a built-in HDMI port. MacBook Air models do not have a dedicated HDMI port — to connect to an external monitor, TV, or projector, MacBook Air owners need a USB-C to HDMI cable or adapter plugged into one of the Thunderbolt ports.
