I like the ease of this adapter either by using a long cord or how it can be shortened into a wall socket. This is my third cord for my old MacPro that I've owned for 8 yrs and still going strong.

I lost my original charger for my MacBook and had no idea what to do since I had some work to get done. I went to Best Buy and got a replacement charger for a great price. This product works great and I am happy that Best Buy sells them

This adapter works perfectly on my 2015 MacBook Pro 15 inch. I wanted to be sure to add which device it works with as there has been confusion with the listing on devices it matches.

Exact replacement for the charger that comes with your MacBook.

Quality 2015 Mac Charger Compatible

This charger is compatible with the 2015 era MacBook Pros. So far it’s working great. Usually the only reason to replace these is a comprised cord near the charging port after a few years.

Same Quality Cable as what came with MAC

This is the same cable that is included when you buy a new MAC. Just make sure that you know your MAC specs, I.E. MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014) if you need a replacement. There are 2 different sizes and they are not interchangeable.

I like my power cird, it is easy to manage. It is easy to pack and use wherever you need to use it. It's not much to say about a power cord, but I suggest you get one for your mac, because it is flexible and handy. The price wasn't bad, either.

Bought this to replace the 45W MagSafe 2 that came with my MacBook Air. Unfortunately the old cord got caught and cut. This one charges faster and seems to have a heavier cord.

I love the length of this thing! It's sturdy and serves its purpose. Unlike my previous charger, the detachment piece stays and doesn't randomly fall off.

Way better than the charger that came with my MacBook, charges almost instantly, a real game changer, especially at the same price as the lower wattage models.

Worked great so not sure what else I can say except to comment on the great service I received from the Best Buy employee. I left my adapter at home while traveling so picked one up at Best Buy (so glad I did not have to find an Apple Store).

Bought this as a replacement charger for the one that came with my MacBook Pro. I like the satisfying "click" when the magnetic connector snaps into place, and it seems like my laptop charges faster than with the previous charger.

Gets the Job Done, Nervous About Past Problems

For a while Apple power adapters had some issues with the connection of the thin wire to the brick, where wrapping the wire too tight around the hooks designed for saif wrapping would cause the wire damage. I am careful not to wrap it in such a way as to make that possible, and everything is fine, I just wish they'd rethink the design to eliminate this concern.

The charger that came with my MacBook Pro Retina lasted 5 years. I wanted to make sure and get an authentic replacement, so I bought it straight from a Best Buy store. Sometimes buying cables or chargers on Amazon gets you a counterfeit.

Apple branded laptop power adapter. This is well made. It has an apple logo to show you that it works with apple laptops. This has the magsafe magnet connector that Apple now thinks is a bad idea. They like USB-C now. But at one time they thought this was the bees knees. It powers a laptop well. Good job Apple and Best Buy! My laptop has power again.

My daughters charger for her MacBook Pro stopped working, so I ran to Best Buy and they had a replacement in stock. Everything Apple related is overpriced, but I had to buy the charger asap. Glad Best Buy had it.

My husband lost his original. This package right on time! He eventually found the old one but it was so damaged. Glad we went with our first mind and get a brand new one.
