The Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 9,000, brand new and sealed in Apple packaging. It is the original 2-metre braided charging cable from Apple for MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models with a MagSafe 3 port. One end plugs into a USB-C power adapter, and the other snaps magnetically onto the side of your Mac. Collect the Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable from our shop at Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, or order it for pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya.
Built for MacBook owners across Kenya, the Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable suits developers, content creators, accountants and university students at Strathmore, USIU and JKUAT. A common problem is a frayed or lost charging cable, which leaves a costly laptop useless before a deadline. Another is the cable that gets tripped over in a busy Kilimani coworking space, dragging the laptop off the desk. This cable fixes both. Its magnetic tip lets go when someone catches the cord, and the 2-metre length reaches sockets that sit behind sofas or under conference tables.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell unbranded copies that look similar but charge slowly or overheat, Mascom International supplies the genuine Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable with a 6-month warranty. Customers across Nairobi tell us they buy a second Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable so one stays at the office and one at home. That saves packing and unpacking cables every evening on the matatu. Bring your MacBook to the shop and our team will test the cable on it before you pay, or order on WhatsApp and pay when it arrives.
Common Questions About the Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable
How much is the Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable in Kenya?
The Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable costs KSh 9,000 at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD, brand new and sealed. That price covers the 2-metre braided cable alone, a 6-month warranty and pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties. No power adapter is included, so you plug it into the USB-C adapter that came with your MacBook. If you need an adapter as well, our team can recommend a compatible Apple USB-C unit sold separately at our shop.
Which MacBook models work with the Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable?
The Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable works with every MacBook that has a MagSafe 3 port. That includes MacBook Air 13-inch from the M2 version of 2022 onward, MacBook Air 15-inch from 2023 onward, and MacBook Pro 14-inch and 16-inch models from 2021 onward. Older MacBooks with MagSafe 1 or MagSafe 2 ports will not accept it. If you are unsure which port your Mac has, send us a photo of its left side on WhatsApp.
Should I buy the Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable or just use a USB-C cable?
Buy the Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable if you want a connector that breaks away safely and leaves all your USB-C ports free; use a plain USB-C cable if you only charge occasionally. MagSafe 3 MacBooks also charge through their USB-C ports. The difference is that a yanked USB-C cable can pull the laptop off the table, while MagSafe 3 simply detaches. The MagSafe tip also shows an amber or green light, so you can see charging status at a glance.
Is the Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable safe during KPLC power cuts and surges?
The Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable is safe across normal power cuts, because the MacBook simply switches to battery when power drops. The cable carries power from your adapter and plays no part in surge protection. Kenyan supply can spike when KPLC restores power after an outage, so plug your adapter into a surge-protected extension or a UPS. That protects the adapter, the cable and the MacBook together, which matters in Eldoret or Kisumu offices where outages are frequent.
Who should buy the Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable, and who should skip it?
Buy the Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable if your MacBook has a MagSafe 3 port and your old cable is damaged, lost or needed in a second location. It also suits anyone who works on a sofa or a crowded desk, where a 2-metre reach helps. Skip it if you use an older MacBook with MagSafe 2, an Intel MacBook with USB-C only, or the 12-inch MacBook. A standard USB-C charging cable is the right fit for those machines.
How can I tell if the Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable is genuine?
A genuine Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable arrives in sealed Apple packaging, has a soft braided finish and shows a small LED that glows amber while charging and green when full. Copies sold in some Nairobi shops often lack the LED, use a plain rubber cord or feel loose on the magnet. At Mascom International, we test each cable on a MacBook in front of you, so you can watch it connect and charge before you pay.
Will the Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable fast charge my MacBook?
Yes, the Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable supports fast charging when it is connected to a compatible Apple USB-C power adapter with enough wattage for your MacBook. The cable is not the limit; the adapter decides the charging speed. A smaller adapter still charges the Mac, only more slowly. Bring your current adapter to Mascom International and we will confirm whether it supports fast charging for your exact MacBook Air or MacBook Pro.
Is the braided Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable durable for daily travel?
The Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable uses a braided outer layer that resists tangles and kinks better than plain rubber cables. That helps when the cord is packed into a bag every day for a matatu or boda boda commute. Avoid wrapping it tightly around the adapter, and do not pull it out by the cord. Hold the connector instead. Those two habits protect the joint where cables usually fail first, whatever the brand.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Charging
- USB-C to MagSafe 3 charging cable — carries power from a USB-C wall adapter to the MagSafe 3 port on your MacBook.
- Magnetic MagSafe 3 connector — snaps into place on its own and lines up without fiddling, even in a dim room.
- Breakaway design — the connector pulls free if someone trips on the cable, so the MacBook stays on the desk.
- Fast charging support — reaches its full charging speed when paired with a compatible high-wattage Apple USB-C power adapter.
- Charging status LED — glows amber while the battery charges and turns green once it is full.
- Charging through MagSafe leaves the USB-C ports open — every port stays free for drives, displays and other accessories.
Compatibility With MacBook Models
- MacBook Air 13-inch with M2, M3 or M4 — all three generations carry the MagSafe 3 port this cable needs.
- MacBook Air 15-inch with M2, M3 or M4 — the larger Air models use the same connector and charge normally.
- MacBook Pro 14-inch from 2021, 2023 and 2024 — works with these Pro models across their chip options.
- MacBook Pro 16-inch from 2021, 2023 and 2024 — supports the larger Pro, given an adapter with enough wattage.
- Any Apple USB-C power adapter — the USB-C end plugs into the brick that shipped with your MacBook.
- Not for MagSafe 1 or MagSafe 2 MacBooks — older magnetic ports are a different shape and will not connect.
- Not for Intel MacBooks that charge only over USB-C — those use a standard USB-C charging cable instead.
Build and Materials
- 2-metre length — reaches a wall socket behind a sofa, bed or meeting-room table without an extension lead.
- Braided outer jacket — resists the tangles and kinks that wear out plain rubber cables in a work bag.
- Slim MagSafe 3 head — sits flush with the side of the MacBook, so it does not stick out on a crowded desk.
- Reversible MagSafe 3 tip — fits the port either way up, so plugging in takes one movement.
- Apple-made cable in the standard silver finish — Apple also makes colour-matched versions, so confirm the colour on WhatsApp.
- Original Apple part — the same cable Apple supplies in the box with recent MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models.
What Comes With It
- One Apple USB-C to MagSafe 3 Cable, 2 metres — the cable is the only item in the sealed retail box.
- No USB-C power adapter included — use the adapter from your MacBook or buy one separately at Mascom International.
- Sealed Apple retail packaging — confirms an unused, genuine product when you open it.
- 6-month Mascom International warranty — covers manufacturing defects from the day of purchase.
- In-store testing on request — our team connects it to your MacBook so you see the LED light before paying.
