Can I use any USB-C charger with any USB-C device?

Yes. USB-C PD is a universal standard. Your device will only draw the wattage it needs. A 100W charger won't damage a phone — it will simply deliver the 20-30W the phone requests.

Should I buy the charger from my phone's manufacturer?

Not necessarily. Third-party chargers from Anker, UGREEN, and Baseus perform identically in most cases. The exception is Samsung's PPS Super Fast Charging, which works best with Samsung's own charger or a PPS-certified alternative.
