“Can the 10th gen Pro 5i or 7i be charged over USB-C? I assume the included charger would be best for gaming, but it would be convenient to have USB-C charging at 65w or 100w available as a back up if I find myself without the included charger. Thanks!”

Hey John, Yes, you can use the system's USB-C port, as it supports USB PD (65-100W). As a note, when not gaming, but you wish to use the USB-C charger on the go -- we recommend using the system's MUX switch configurable in Lenovo Vantage under Gaming Settings to select the GPU working mode to use the system's iGPU to reduce power draw. This will increase charging speeds and reduce the likelihood of the system drawing more battery power than it can replenish. Please feel free to reach out to us with any other questions!
