![]() You can also use a keyboard with a proprietary usb wireless adapter, that is a normal Some keyboards have an optional usb cable you can use. There are some usb Bluetooth adapters that let you pair directly from the adapter to a keyboard, no OS required once it’s set up. ![]() ![]() Both of above I only know about from seeing people complain online that these features don’t work. Some Bluetooth adapters can stay paired after a soft reboot too. I’ve heard some motherboards with built in wifi can enter the bios using a long power button press or something, and pair from inside the bios. One nice thing about Apple computers is that Bluetooth works before the OS is booted. You can get convenient little breakout boards for it on Aliexpress. One thing want to do but not tried yet is convert a few micro-usb things to usb-c. You know how some cheap devices have usb-c charging that only seems to work with a USB-A to C cable? The adapters I mentioned can work around that. The difference in charging time to the Apple 87W charger wasn’t noticed. The 45W charger is not much bigger than an OG iPhone charger and had no problem with my 16” MacBook. Sometimes I used the A-C adapter to trickle charge stuff in the hotel when I was out, taking my own charger with me for the day, and other than that just rotating what I was charging. I brought only the following as a trial: 1 Anker 45W GaN charger, 1 30cm usb-c lightning cable, 1 1m usb-c cable, 1 usb-A to C adapter, 1 usb-C to A adapter which went unused, and 1 usb-c to micro adapter. I recently travelled for a month with all my battery-powered work and personal stuff (2 MacBooks (one Intel and one M1), 2 iPhones, Nintendo Switch, game controller, mouse (that one is micro usb), headphones and shaver).
