I do quite like the usability of lightning, and I was quite upset when they cut it. I tried using 3rd party USB-C magnetic adapters, but they mostly suck. I welcome the dualism of new lightning + USB-C charging, the best of both worlds.

MagSafe has a lot of benefits. High wattage before the latest high wattage usb-c came out, and easily disconnects which is great for laptops.

Seriously , I’ve seen it save so many laptops in its current and prior generations.
