Yes you can. But if it’s a typical phone charger it will be very slow. You really want at least a 20 watt charger (it will be printed on your charger how many watts it’s capable of)

No I don’t think you can. It’s got a magnetic charger.

Yes you can. It’s really handy.

I have a MacBook, have owned it for just over a year and had no idea you could use your phone charger! I just googled and it says you can but it’s very slow and not recommended.
