Apple chargers for a MacBook If you’ve got a MacBook Pro, size matters when it comes to wattage, and models matter when it comes to charging cables. MagSafe is a series of proprietary magnetically attached power connectors developed by Apple Inc. for Mac laptops. MagSafe was introduced on 10 January 2006, in conjunction with the MacBook Pro, the first Intel-based Mac laptop, at the Macworld Expo. The connector is held in place magnetically so that if it is tugged (for example, by someone tripping over the cable), it will be pulled out of the port without damaging the connector or the port, and without pulling the computer off its surface. [1] A thinner and wider version, called MagSafe 2, was introduced in 2012. It was discontinued across Apple's product lines between 2016 and 2019 and replaced with USB-C. MagSafe returned to Mac laptops with the introduction of updated MacBook Pro models with MagSafe 3 in 2021. Since the very first model, MacBook Pros have been the go-to laptops for professionals across all fields. Introduced in 2006, they’ve since come in three sizes (13, 15, and 17 inches) and used a variety of processors, video cards, and batteries — all of which have a significant impact on the type of charger being used. So a MacBook Pro 2012 charger is quite different from a 2016 model, for example.Apple also uses the MagSafe name for a wireless power transfer and accessory-attachment standard for the iPhone based on the Qi standard, introduced with the iPhone 12 and 12 Pro.

The MagSafe connector pins allow for the adapter to be inserted in either orientation. The first and second pins on each side of the central pin have continuity with their mirror pins. Almost every earlier MacBook model would be compatible with a 60W MagSafe Adapter with a T-shaped connector.
