![]() With USB C you had to open the machine to check, now you can see from across the room. I tried a 3rd party USB C- magnetic charging adapter for my 2016 MBP but it was horribly unreliable.Īside from being easier to use, having the LED on the cable to show charging status was incredibly handy. ![]() It just worked and it was a boneheaded move to remove it. is right - Magsafe was one of those brilliant Apple innovations that was beautifully simple and functional. (I assume you can use a USB C-USB C cable with the same power adapter) I actually don’t like the ease with which USB C plugs pull out I find them less secure than the old USB A plugs and have accidentally disconnected USB C cables on occasion. You can still charge via the TB4 ports, it’s just limited to 100W. Plus, the USB-C plug actually pulled out more easily in my experience than the reworked barrel-style MagSafe 1 connector. The benefit of being able to charge from either side was well worth it for me at the time. ![]() No one thinking clearly would have ever killed it. I'd love to know who was responsible for the removal of MagSafe. When the connection is secure, an LED located at the head of the DC connector lights up an amber light. Its held in place magnetically, so if someone should trip over it, the cord disconnects harmlessly and your notebook stays put safely. I typically keep my MBPs for seven years, so only three more to go on my 2017 before I get to have MagSafe again! Wheeee! The Apple 60W MagSafe Power Adapter is made specifically for your MacBook or MacBook Pro 13-inch model.
