		grzm on Nov 27, 2016 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: The new MacBook Pro is kind of great for hackers Looking at a USB-C plug compared to that of a MagSafe, I'm not sure they would have been able to come up with anything as well-designed as the MagSafe itself. Rather than make due with a more clunky design similar to the Griffin BreakSafe, I suspect they chose to omit it.

You could do Griffin BreakSafe style on the charger side and not laptop side, so it would look nice.

In your opinion, perhaps. I don't think the designers at Apple agree. If they did, I think we would see something similar to the BreakSafe from Apple.
