Magsafe was nice. But honestly, I don't really miss it. The safety issue isn't really an issue for me. The convenience isn't a big deal. In fact, while I've got the MacBook on my lap, I like the new connector because it doesn't disconnect easily, like the Magsafe did. I also like the fact that any of the 4 USB-C connectors can be used to charge, meaning I can plug it in on either side. The little LED on the MagSafe connector was cool, changing to green when it was fully charged. But honestly, the battery life on these machines is so good now that I end up just charging it overnight anyway, and using it all day.
