Can I still use the old charger and cable on my new iPhone 13?

Can I use my older iPhone blocks and cables to charge the new iPhone 13? It would be extremely inconvenient not to be able to use the several I have in different locations. Will it hurt the phone? The sales clerk said use the new charging block I bought to go with the new charging cable, so I want to be sure I don’t harm my new phone.

You can use the power adapter and cable from an older iPhone. Apple encourages it. It will not hurt your iPhone 13.See the following from Buy iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 mini - Apple
