People complaining about lack of MagSafe on the MacBook Neo...
Are you for real? Have you seen the price?
Also, do you live in 2026 or do you still carry single purpose chargers and have external monitors that don't charge your laptops?

@kyle At home I am definitely not using MagSafe since I have USB-C everywhere, and my monitors are all USB-C and will top up my laptop.
When traveling, I bring a charger with 4 ports? Why would I weigh myself down with a "laptop" charger?
I guess MagSafe made sense when you were so often connected to power that tripping on it was a concern but I don't show up at a coffee shop and put a cord in a walking area

@g My wife currently has a Mac without MagSafe, and she’s not very careful with it. The cord has been bumped one too many times while connected. One USB-C port will no longer charge the computer, and the other is flakey. I’m just counting the days until it can’t charge any longer and becomes a doorstop.
As her “IT and hardware acquisitions guy,” I can say she absolutely will not be getting another machine without MagSafe.

@g I’ve used MagSafe since it was reintroduced fewer than 10 times
It made more sense when you needed to keep the MacBook connected to power most of the time. But on Apple silicon I charge it mostly when I’m not using it. Like an iPad or a phone

@thomasareed Yeah ok you’re allowed to want it but on a 499/599 computer that competes with hunks of junks I doubt you’d expect it either…

@g True… but I also would not buy such a computer.
