" ...  Having the ability to get data transfer over this plug is awesome!  ...  "

" ...  You'll have to maintain the USB cable horizontally so it keeps the two parts of the connector together. ... If you use common USB cables it is fine  ...  "
comment
" ...  One of the things I really loved about the older Macbooks was the magsafe charging ports/cables. ... This little magnetic usb c adaptor is great in that it allows for the same type of functionality as the old magsafe ports/cables. ... The adaptor that actually attaches to the cable also lights up when you plug in your computer. ... This is a super nice touch and makes it that much closer to the old magsafe ports.  ...  "

" ...  I have a DELL XPS 13 and I put it in the USB C slot and it works very well.  ...  "

" ...  Love this charging adapter - the cable by itself would fall out if I move my mac randomly .  ...  "
comment
" ...  Several of my counterparts at our company have MacBooks, and all lament the passing of the integral magnetic charge adapter with USB-C. ... This is an excellent way to turn a standard USB-C cable into a magnetically attached one.  ...  "
comment
" ...  With the type C connector and with a dual-ended type C cable I was able to connect my phone(OnePlus 6) to my laptop (just for charging)  ...  "
comment
" ...  - I like the 90 degree design so the cable isn't sticking out straight from the port. ... - It is long and may block the port next to it depending on how wide the other item to be plugged in is. ... The length contributes to how well it holds together, so I am perfectly willing to accept a blocked port.  ...  "

" ...  Since the USB-C ports on this PC are used for practically everything (charging, docking, etc. ... That dock drives two (2) 4k monitors, an external USB-3.0 hub, as well as charging my laptop. ... The second adapter serves a similar purpose but I use it to connect the cable between the charging brick and my PC.  ...  "

comment
" ...  - It is reversible, so I can connect it either way. ... - It will work with data, although I think that is risky as an inadvertent disconnect could cause problems or data loss. ... Apple MagSafe wasn't perfect either, so these tradeoffs are worth it to me, and I think this is a very well designed product.  ...  "

comment
" ...  In came this beautiful connector. ... Sometimes if you snag your cable the whole adapter comes out of the Macbook. ... I guess snagging cables dragging laptops with them isn't as big of a thing as I was expecting but I prefer the safety of knowing that the magnets will disconnect if that little bit of force causes the cable to pull my expensive MacBook with it.  ...  "
