Along with the new M2 MacBook Pro and MacBook Air models, Apple introduced and launched a pair of 35W dual-port USB-C power adapters, which are unique among Apple’s power adapter offerings. because they include two USB-C ports instead of one.
ChargerLAB, known for disassembling Apple devices and accessories, today shared a disassembly of the 35 W USB-C Dual Port Compact Power Adapter, giving us a look at the components inside.
The power adapter has a unique design that makes it easy to replace the tips inside to make it available in different regions, as well as including two identical power circuits. ChargerLAB says the front and back components of the power adapter are symmetrical.
Apple has two versions of the power adapter, both priced at $ 59. The 35W Dual USB-C Power Port Adapter looks like a standard MacBook charger, while the 35W Dual USB-C Dual Port Power Adapter looks more like a charger iPad with two ports at the bottom rather than the side. ChargerLAB has broken the compact version, so we still don’t know what the internal components of the non-compact model look like.
The 5 W Dual USB-C Compact Power Adapter supports up to 35 W and supports Power Delivery 3.0. It works with four fixed power supply options, including 5V3A, 9V3A, 15V2.33A and 20V1.75A. Apple has said that if a Mac and an iPhone or iPad are connected, each device receives up to 17.5 W. The same goes for an iPhone or iPad. If a Mac or “iPhone” and an Apple Watch or AirPods are connected, the Mac / “iPhone” receives up to 27.5 W and the Apple Watch or AirPods receive up to 7.5 W. If a single device is connected , can receive the full 35 W.
Apple recommends the two new 35 W chargers for the MacBook Air, which will be launched in July. Apple has not yet provided a release date for the MacBook Air, but both power adapters are available for purchase today and will ship immediately.
