Hi,

I watched some videos on Youtube about some laptops that capable to charge with the USB-C port. How can I know if my laptop (Acer Swift 3, SF315-52G) is capable to charge with USB-C, like from a power bank? Or is it a myth?

Thanks.

    From what I see the SF315-52G does not charge through any of the USB ports, including the USB-C. There is a port that provides power to your other devices even when the laptop is turned off, but that's not used to charge the laptop.
