The OG MagSafe charger only offers speeds of up to 15W, the same max speed the new accessory will give you when used with an iPhone 15 or older. So, other than future-proofing, there’s no reason to get the new charger if you have an older handset and already own the <a data-i13n="cpos:9;pos:1" href="https://www.engadget.com/apple-magsafe-iphone-173957651.html">original MagSafe charger[/url].</p> <span id="end-legacy-contents"></span>
<p>The new MagSafe accessory comes in two variants: One with a 1m (3.3 ft) cable and another with a 2m (6.6 ft) cable. The shorter cable costs $39 (the same as the original), while the longer one will set you back $49.</p>
