The Apple site just says “What’s in the box: MagSafe charger”. This is so non-specific.
Does it include the power adapter to put in the wall, or is it just a usb-c port on the side? I.e. is the total price $40, or do I also need a $20 usb-c to power adapter?

Same question, only in £’s.

I’m assuming it’s the cable only, so shouldn’t really be adverted as a charger.
 
If the website says ‘box contents: MagSafe charger‘ then that is literally all that comes in the box.
Do you really think that they would include a $20 power brick with a $40 wireless charger? For Apple the MagSafe is cheap at $40 on its own.

Isn't a charger something that you can charge with? I can't do anything with just a cable.
If I bought a "Macbook charger" from Apple, would that also make sense to only include the actual usb-c to usb-c cable?

The charger has a built in cord looks like. The page's gallery shows a USB C cord.

If you purchased a MacBook charger, you would be given 2 separate items. The wall brick and the USB C cable. Both charged separately as 2 distinct items.
