How to use the charging cord for my iPhone 12? It's too small to fit into the plug that goes into the wall.

My new iPhone 12 has a charging cord that is different from the previous ones I've had. The end that should plug into the device that plugs into the outlet is smaller that what I have. Can I use it anyway? or what?

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 14

Hi, the cable is a USB-C to lightening Cable. To use the cable you either need a USB-C Power Adapter, (with this you can use fast charging) or a computer with a USB-C port. If you have a lightning cable from a older iPhone it will work with your new iPhone.
