I'm sorry, but I'm confused. Is the new MagSafe connector exactly the same as the connector two generations back? I have a white plastic MacBook and the connector looks like the first photo.


It's thinner than the old MagSafe connectors, but has the same T-Shape as the "two generations back" connector you're referring to.


Hmm, I liked that adapter. The newer ones don't disconnect if you pull laterally.


I just had the same question. I am sitting here working on a late 2008 MacBook Pro and the magsafe connector looks exactly like the 'new' magsafe connector pictured in the article.

Only a very slight difference to the connecting surface itself.


It's slightly wider and thinner than the old white plastic MacBook connector.
