Is it possible to charge macbook pro 14 inch 2023 M3 using usb-c port instead of magsafe 3?

My English is not good and even though I searched the forum, I'm still not sure if I can use another charger with the same wattage as the Apple charger or not. Can I plug the charging cable into the USB-C port? Please help me.

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 14.5

You can use another brand of power adapter that has the same (or more) wattage as the one that came with your MacBook Pro.


You can charge the 14 inch 2023 MacBook Pro using either a USB-C port or MagSafe 3. See the following from Charge your MacBook Air or MacBook Pro - Apple Support

Your Mac has a MagSafe 3 port, USB-C ports, or both. If your Mac has both ports, either can be used to charge your battery.
