Charging iPhone SE 2020

Can an iPhone SE 2020 be charged with the older iphone charging cable/plug that was used by the iPhone 6? Or does it require the purchase of an adapter plug for the new cable that it comes with (I believe a USB-C power adapter)?

It can use the iPhone 6's cable with the iPhone 6's USB-A power adapter / charger just fine yes.


It can also use the USB-C to Lightning cable it comes with with a USB-C power adapter / charger that can be bought separately or one that comes with an iPad Pro or Mac computer.


You cannot use the USB-C to Lughtning cable it comes with the power adapter / charger from the iPhone 6 as they use a different connection.
