Apple MacBook Neo charger

Hello, I recently bought my MacBook Neo 8/256 (Indigo) on June 22, 2026. Recently, I've been noticing the 3 pin 30W USB C to C charger gets pretty warm (as in prettyyy) But it's never wayyy too uncomfortable to hold or cause burns, sure it is uncomfortable. I'm wondering if my charger is a counterfeit because I live in a country where there are no legitimate Apple stores (Pakistan) and you have to buy from a Third party/authorized reseller. I've done around 9 cycles on this charger and I'm wondering if anyone has had the same experience because I'm really scared if it damaged my battery throughout that in any way. I've checked the serial number located inside the prongs and it matches up in System Information. As well as the manufacturer is labeled as Apple Inc. However, I'm still not convinced because nowadays there are some high quality counterfeit products out there nowadays. Please, someone confirm it for me or give me any ways to confirm this charger, Because the shop won't even claim warranty for it as it's serial number matches up. Thanks!

This laptop is NOT worth it.

Hello, I bought my my MacBook Neo (Indigo) around a week ago. And I've used it ever since, from the start I had high expectations for it because it's a 600$ laptop. (that's literally high end laptop price). So I expected it to run cyberpunk from the get go on high/fully maxed out settings. but it turns out they've completely conned me!!! it's obviously because I've never used a MacBook that's why right? But it CANNOT run cyberpunk at ALL. Like what's the point of being so pricey in the end then? I don't get it. Please make it around 200$ or something. This laptop does the same tasks as a Chromebook, just in a "stylish" "sleek" and "apple way". Please do not buy it. GENUINE ADVICE. ‼️
