Hey guys, I'm using MacBook Air and its using 45w adapter(magsafe 2). now that thing about to be ripped or teared due to its age. I want a new adapter but looking at the oem adapter, are they useable? those reviews from customers(lazada & Shopee) mostly are the one that what they felt after trying, once the item arrived their location but what about the risk? I've read before, years ago when people bought oem adapters and their logic board(motherboard) dead. do you guys have experience with such item?

How about trying this?

Is it okay though? I mean the quality..

I think it should be coz Mocran is a reputable brand.

Or if you want peace of mind, go with the original one here

Oh okay.. I'll consider that.. Thanks dude

Oem or not from apple. Are yours oem as well?

The price gone down, but reading the review made it suspicious lol

Ya, now that you mentioned it, it seems they've been sending the wrong adapter to customers

Anyways, there's a return policy on Lazada so that helps!

I would advice you to get the original adapter from Apple. Gives you a peace of mind.

Sometimes you may not know the reliability of the OEM adapter.

Be careful with imitation too. Too cheap to be true.

Yeah kinda true.. Thanks man 👌

That's what i thought.. Looking at the price zzZz

Yesssss

Its Apple ma... Nothing comes cheap in apple's ecosystem. Of course you pay for the quality and peace of mind lo

that's why Im asking, if the poem or third party branded works just fine then no hassle..

It's always a risk using OEM or third party accessories. By the way, which year is your MacBook Air? Mine's early 2014 and the Magsafe adapter still OK though.

If can afford Apple products, should be able to afford the accessories and repairs. Lucky my 11" Air 2014 everything is still fine.

My Macbook Air battery kind of bloated. So I dare not to use it anymore. So I have a Macbook Air adapter sitting at home. I can sell you if u want...

Mine is 2013.. Actually i changed my pro with my brother's air. Mine looks okay but he never take of his stuff. It looks like garbage now haha.

It's not the matter of 'should', just wondering how the oem has evolved huhu

Is it ori, how much are you letting it go? But what cause it to bloat actually?

Yes...original. I am not sure mine is MagSafe 2 or not...This is my model: Magsafe

Reason bloated - I think due to age. Battery tends to get bloated after some times....

Mine is the 2nd gen 👌

So have you decided if you'll buy an original adapter or risk it with the OEM one?

Getting an original in couple of days.

Problem solved then
