Mine says the same. I use the charger all the time and surprise it has’t updated before.
Same here!
I was on the same firmware, plugged the MagSafe into my MacBook, and it was upgraded shortly after. I suspect it never got upgraded before as I always had it plugged into an Anker power brick.
Huge change immediately - the MagSafe charger doesn't get nearly as hot anymore.
Thank you MacRumors! I would never have upgraded if it wasn't for this article
Yeah, because 30% of the power is converted into heat instead going into the battery. That's why I never charged my iPhones once with wireless chargers. And the speed of course.
Enjoy the charging port while we still have one. You still have two ways to recharge the iPhone battery and add attachments.
If Apple removes the USB-C port, there will be no external way to access a stuck iPhone to try and recover it's operation.

No it’s about the same speed, it made no difference. Wired charging is much
then why did they say it would charge from 0 to 50% in 30 min that’s the same with usb c cable. That’s a lie
So it’s not any faster than the older 15w MagSafe. What’s the point of the 25w oneYeah, because 30% of the power is converted into heat instead going into the battery. That's why I never charged my iPhones once with wireless chargers. And the speed of course.
