It has a retro look to it, reminiscent of old computers from past eras. The charging brick is designed after the original [Macintosh](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retro-35-gan-charger) computer with the MacOS smiling logo on the small computer screen at the front. It is built with a special GaN semiconductor within the exterior and although it is small, it comes with a maximum output of 35W. When it is plugged in, Mac's screen also brightens up as well, lighting up in a variety of colors to let users know what the charging status is of their device that is plugged in.
