Charging a new iPhone SE?

Must we use a USB-PD and/or USB-C charger to charge my wife's new iPhone SE? If I have a USB-A to Lightning cable from my old iPad, will this work with any charger?

Can I use the charger from my old iPad with my new iPad Pro? So I just purchased a new 12.7 iPad Pro. It uses USB-C to USB-C for charging. I am coming from an older iPad that used Lightning. I understand not being able to use the cables themselves, but what about the chargers? Could I change and but a USB-C to USB cable to make use of all the chargers I have? Or should I bite the bullet and buy a bigger USB-C Charger? Thanks! [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Can you use an old iphone charger and cable with the new iphone 12? I have just purchased an iphone 12 max pro, but realised it doesn't come with a plug for this "new style" small usb cable. The last iphone I purchased was a 7plus, which used the old USB cable (not the new mini one). Can I charge my new the iphone12 pro max, with the same plug and cable I used for my 7plus? It would help me save myself money, seeing as I just spent £1200 on the phone! Thanks

Hi!

Yes, a USB-A to Lightning cable will also work with your iPhone SE. The included USB-C to Lightning cable can be used with a USB-C power brick, if you have one.

Hope this helps!
