However, when charging via the Thunderbolt 4 port, the charging speed will not be as fast. This means the laptop will charge at the maximum possible power rating with the bundled MagSafe cable and charger. The 16-inch MacBook Pro is available in M1 Pro and M1 Max versions, and all configurations ship with a 140W USB-C power adapter. Alternatively, buyers can use a USB-C to USB-C cable and a Power Delivery charger that can output 100W speeds to fast-charge the laptop via the Thunderbolt 4 port. Those who want fast charging can pay an extra $20 at checkout for a 96W power adapter.

Apple has revealed that the 67W power adapter won't fast charge (0 to 50 percent in about 30 minutes) the MacBook Pro. The 14-inch MacBook Pro with an M1 Pro 8-Core CPU ships with a 67W power adapter and MagSafe 3 cable, while the variant with an M1 Pro 10-core CPU or M1 Max chip ships with a 96W power adapter cable and MagSafe 3 cable.
