    3rd party magsafe3 charging cable

    $50 for a charging cable? Does anyone have experience with any of the 3rd party cables? I found one at Walmart for $17 but no reviews. https://www.walmart.com/ip/axGear-USB-C-to-Magsafe-3-Charging-Cable-Braided-Wire-6-5-Ft-2M-Charging-Cord-with-LED-Charging-Indicator/1180974117 Thanks

    iPad Pro Anyone wish iPads Pros had Mac-Style MagSafe Charging?

    I have an older 12.9-inch iPad Pro: And I'm legitimately getting annoyed in that in order to use ANY accessory I have to unplug my iPad from the USB-C charge cable, and plug in my USB-A to USB-C Flash Drive, and watch as the battery percent goes from 100% to 70% every time I do a long backup...

    Cable Charger compatibility (Apple included)

    So I saw Apple has new braided USB-C cables! But the 1m cable is just 60W instead of 100W... Now, hypothetically... What if I only want to carry around one charger and one cable for iPhone, iPad and Mac... What if I use the shorter 1m braided 60W cable with a 96W charger and my MacBook Pro...

    Magsafe 3 power cables failing

    Didn't see any other threads on this so I thought I'd start one. It seems the Magsafe 3 power cables do not last more than a few months in gentle usage. I've a 2021 MBP I bought a little more than a year ago. I've had 3 Magsafe power cables since then! Spent a about 4 months in the middle of...

    MagSafe 3 or USB C

    From what I've read so far, it seems that MagSafe is merely faster at charging than USB C. However, I currently use a MBP 2019, with USB C, and all my accessories work with it fine. Would it not be better to merely stick with a USB C MBP, versus a MagSafe one? Was thinking of upgrading my MBP...

    Silver MagSafe connector makes no sense

    The original magsafe connector was white plastic, which was the right choice if you ask me. It looked good connected to my blackintosh and they looked good connected to the MacBook Pros, and it made sense. Ever since gen 1 they've ditched the plastic housing for aluminum. There must be some...
