I bought an M1 Macbook Air and always wondered why it takes long to charge. They should have bundled a 50W or offer an upgrade for a tiny difference. It fascinates me just how much Apple cheaps out. In addition, the magnetic DC helps guide the plug into the system for a quick and secure connection. It also helps prevent fraying or weakening of the cables over time. Users would certainly have benefited if Apple had included a much higher power adapter with the 13" MacBook Air (2020)." The 45W MagSafe 2 Power Adapter features a magnetic DC connector so if someone should trip over it, the cord disconnects harmlessly and your MacBook Air stays put safely. "It takes about 1.7 hours to fully charge a battery depleted Apple 13" MacBook Air (2020) using at least a 50W USB PD charger vs 2.8 hours when using the in-box 30W charger. Is the 30W Charger Really Enough For the Apple MacBook Air (2020)? The MacBook Air (2020) ships with 30W USB-C PD power adapter but will charge faster with 60W PD power adapter The Samsung charger offers up to 45 watts output using fixed PDO's (Power Delivery Objects) of 15 watts (5 volts 3 amps), 27 watts (9 volts 3 amps), 45 watts (15 volts 3 amps) and 45 watts (20 volts 2.25 amps) as well as variable power of 13.3-44.5 watts (3.3~11 volts 4.05 amps), 9.2-44.8 watts (3.3~16 volts 2.8 amps) and 6.9-44.1 watts (3.3~21 volts 2.1 amps) power profiles. The laptop negotiates with the charger to pick the fastest charging speed possible. This will charge any laptop that supports USB-C Power Delivery (PD), all MacBooks released in the last few years have it. I don't own one, but I imagine the usb-c would be able to power a MacBook.
