I just bought a new 2018 11” Pro and am way confused about the USB-C alphabet soup. I’ve been using this Anker charger for my XR, iPad Air 2, etc:
Now that I have a Pro that uses USB-C I’m looking at this:
I’m having a hard time figuring out wattages and specs for devices and chargers. Should I get a USB-C to USB-A cable? Can you guys shed some light on what I need, what I want and what to avoid?
Sound off, much appreciated.
