So I’ve never had anything USB-C before, at least nothing I’ve had to charge on its own. It looks like the wire that comes with the 15 pro max is USB C to USB C, is that right? So if I don’t get a USB C brick I can’t charge it day 1?

Will my USB A bricks and such be useless at least for my phone charging?

If I do need USB C bricks is Anker still reliable?

I figure 1 new brick for home 1 for work and a new USB C car charger brick should be good for now along with the wires.
 
You can get a USB-A to USB-C cable if you want, but it can’t charge at the maximum speeds. I would get some new bricks, you can get them cheap on Amazon. Anker is still a good brand, I have a few of their chargers around the house and in my travel bag.
 
can you use your apple watch brick to charge the iphone 15? 20watts. dont really need to buy a new on if most people have that.
