Bolt-S by Vinpok, protect your MacBook and MacBook Pro with this magnetic USB C

Since Apple removed the proprietary MacSafe cable In the new MacBook Retina and MacBook Pro 2016, users look for solutions of all kinds to have that active "security" that the Apple cable offered us against possible accidents.

This time it's about Bolt-S by Vinpok, a magnetic USB C adapter that adds the USB C cable to meet the needs of users who are afraid of throwing their Mac to the ground or that someone may do it by pulling the charging cable.

It should be noted that USB C cables are really hooked to Macs and other devices that use this connection, so an accidental pull on the cord it can cause the computer to fall to the ground with the consequences in an aluminum device such as the MacBook Retina or the MacBook Pro.

This Bolt-S will be available in two colors: black or silver and its price will be about 29 dollars when it goes on sale. The only problem we found with this adapter is that as we can read Bolt-S cable will not be used to transfer data, which means that users have more to connect a standard USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 cable to another of the MacBook ports to perform the transfer.

In the market today we have the option of Griffin BreakSafe Magnetic, which has been available for a year and is really safe in situations like the ones we discussed at the beginning. An accidental pull can make the Mac fall to the ground and this is much more expensive than having the habit of using this type of third-party cables that guarantee us safety, yes, not buying just any cable.
