Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 15,500, brand new and sealed in its retail box. The Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter delivers up to 140 watts through a single USB-C port, the output Apple specifies for fast charging the 16-inch MacBook Pro. It accepts 100-240V input, so it runs straight off 240V mains, and the units we stock carry the UK-style three-pin plug that fits Kenyan wall sockets without a travel converter. Collect yours at our shop in the Old Mutual Building on Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, or order it for delivery.
Built for content creators, video editors, architects and developers across Kenya, the Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter keeps a 16-inch MacBook Pro topped up during long renders and heavy builds. A smaller charger can leave the battery slowly draining while the processor works hard, and that can end an export halfway through. With the Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter on the wall, the laptop draws everything it asks for. Many buyers keep one at the office in Westlands and the original at home, so the charger never rides in a matatu bag and never gets left behind.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell unbranded 140W bricks with no paperwork, Mascom International supplies the genuine Apple part, sealed, with a 6-month warranty. Customers across Nairobi tell us that cheap copies run hot and cut out when KPLC power returns after an outage, a risky trade on a laptop worth hundreds of thousands of shillings. The Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter ships without a cable, so tell us which cable you need when you order. Walk into our Kimathi Street store to check the box and plug on your own machine, or order by WhatsApp and pay on arrival.
Common Questions About the Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter
How much is the Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter in Kenya?
The Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter costs KSh 15,500 brand new and sealed at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That price covers the genuine Apple adapter with the UK-style three-pin plug, a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects, and pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties. No cable is included, so budget for a USB-C or MagSafe 3 cable if you do not already own one. The Apple 96W USB-C Power Adapter sells for KSh 13,500 at our store, so the extra 44 watts costs KSh 2,000.
Which cable should I pair with the Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter?
To get the full 140 watts from the Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter, use a cable rated for 140W or higher. Apple quotes its fast-charging figure for the 16-inch MacBook Pro with the USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable, which also frees up the laptop's USB-C ports. For USB-C to USB-C charging, a 240W-rated cable carries the adapter's full output. An ordinary 60W phone cable will still work, but it caps the power, so a 16-inch machine charges slowly while it works hard.
How fast does the Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter charge a 16-inch MacBook Pro?
Apple states that the Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter can fast charge a 16-inch MacBook Pro to about 50 percent in roughly 30 minutes. That figure applies with the USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable. During a heavy render the charge climbs more slowly, because the processor takes its share of the power first. For lawyers and accountants with a 30-minute gap between client meetings in Kilimani, half a battery in that window means the afternoon runs unplugged.
Should I buy the Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter or the Apple 96W USB-C Power Adapter?
Choose the Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter if you own a 16-inch MacBook Pro and want Apple's full fast-charging speed. The Apple 96W USB-C Power Adapter, at KSh 13,500, suits 14-inch MacBook Pro models and charges a 16-inch machine more slowly. Both use one USB-C port and both are sold without a cable. The 140W unit is larger in a bag, so 14-inch owners gain little from it. If you might move to a 16-inch laptop within two years, the smaller price gap makes the 140W the safer buy.
Is the Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter safe on Kenyan power during KPLC outages?
The Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter accepts 100-240V at 50 or 60Hz, which covers Kenya's 240V, 50Hz mains. Its plug is the three-pin UK type used in Kenyan homes and offices, so no converter is needed. A power cut itself does not harm it; the laptop simply switches to battery. The bigger risk is the surge when power returns, so plug it into a surge-protected extension or a UPS, especially in Industrial Area offices and older buildings with unsteady supply.
Will the Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter damage a MacBook Air, iPad or iPhone?
No, the Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter will not harm a smaller device, because USB Power Delivery lets each device ask for only the power it can take. A MacBook Air, 14-inch MacBook Pro, iPad or USB-C iPhone negotiates its own rate and charges normally. That makes one adapter enough for a household or small studio with several Apple devices. It also charges many Windows laptops that accept USB-C Power Delivery, though each laptop draws only what its maker allows.
Who should buy the Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter, and who should skip it?
Buy the Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter if you run a 16-inch MacBook Pro for video, 3D, music production or large code builds, or if you lost the original charger. Owners of a MacBook Air or other 13-inch laptop should skip it. The Apple 70W USB-C Power Adapter at KSh 11,500, or the Apple 40W Dynamic Power Adapter with 60W Max at KSh 7,300, covers those machines for less money and less weight. Students at Strathmore or USIU will find the smaller bricks easier to carry.
Is the Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter at Mascom International genuine?
Every Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter at Mascom International is genuine Apple stock, brand new and sealed in its retail box. Fake 140W bricks sold around Nairobi often feel light, run hot and lack proper protection circuits. You can open the box at our Kimathi Street counter and plug it into your MacBook Pro before paying. On a Mac, System Information shows the charger's wattage under Power, so you can confirm it reads 140W before you leave the store.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Power Output
- 140W peak output — the power level Apple specifies for fast charging the 16-inch MacBook Pro, with headroom during heavy work.
- Single USB-C port — charges one laptop or device at a time, so it replaces your main charger rather than a multi-port hub.
- USB Power Delivery 3.1 — the newer charging standard that allows more than 100 watts over USB-C, where older chargers stop at 100W.
- Fast charging — Apple quotes about 50 percent in roughly 30 minutes on a 16-inch MacBook Pro using the MagSafe 3 cable.
- Automatic power matching — the adapter talks to the connected device and sends only what it requests, so smaller gadgets charge safely.
Compatibility
- 16-inch MacBook Pro — full-speed charging, including Apple's fast-charge mode through the USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable.
- 14-inch MacBook Pro and MacBook Air — charge normally; each laptop draws its own rate and simply ignores the extra headroom.
- iPad and USB-C iPhone models — safe to use, charging at whatever rate each device supports, the same as on its own charger.
- Windows laptops with USB-C Power Delivery — many HP, Dell and Lenovo models charge from it; check that your laptop accepts USB-C power first.
- Cable requirement — full output needs a cable rated for 140W or more; a standard 60W cable limits charging to about 60 watts.
- MagSafe 3 support — connects through the USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable, leaving the laptop's USB-C ports free for drives and displays.
Build and Electrical Safety
- UK-style three-pin plug (Type G) — plugs straight into standard three-pin wall sockets, with no travel converter wobbling in the wall.
- 100-240V, 50/60Hz input — handles 240V mains at home and works abroad with a simple plug converter for other socket shapes.
- White plastic housing — Apple's standard charger finish, which wipes clean with a dry cloth and matches Mac accessories on a desk.
- Larger body than lower-wattage Apple chargers — plan for the bag space; it suits a desk or wall socket more than a pocket.
- Brand new and sealed — retail-packaged genuine Apple stock, never opened, never used as a display unit, and never refurbished.
Inclusions and Support
- Adapter only — Apple sells the Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter without a charging cable of any kind in the box.
- Cable sold separately — choose a 240W-rated USB-C cable or a USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable to reach full charging speed.
- Apple retail packaging — sealed box with Apple's printed documentation, ready to keep as an office spare or to give as a gift.
- 6-month warranty — covers manufacturing defects under normal use, with claims handled at the Mascom International service desk.
- Counter testing — staff can plug the adapter into your own laptop before purchase, so you see the wattage reading for yourself.
Package Contents
The sealed box holds the Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter with its three-pin plug and Apple's printed documentation. Apple does not include a charging cable, so you need a USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable or a USB-C cable rated for 140W or more to reach full speed. If the cable from your old charger carries that rating, it will work. Compatible cables are sold separately at Mascom International, and our staff can check your existing cable's rating at the counter.
Warranty
Mascom International backs the Apple 140W USB-C Power Adapter with a 6-month warranty covering manufacturing defects under normal use, such as a unit that stops charging or fails to power a device. Claims are handled at our Nairobi CBD service desk in the Old Mutual Building; bring the adapter and your receipt.
