Apple Macbook 2017 Charger

I had a mid-2017 MacBook Pro 13 that was still in great condition (and thank you B&H/Phobio for a great recycle price!) but was coming to the end of Apple Care. I wanted to keep the touch bar (unlike the prevailing consensus I love it) and do not need the additional ports that are reportedly coming in the new MBPs this year with the M1x/M2 chips. The new keyboard is great, very good travel, the Escape key is back, but it is totally true that the performance and battery life are INCREDIBLE. Apps, especially Apple Apps like Safari, Mail, Calendar, and Music open instantaneously (one bounce on the Dock or less). I have not done any heavy-lifting like video processing or photo editing yet but this is a great machine that I expect will last me another three years. I highly recommend getting 16GB of RAM as Big Sur wants to run in 8GB of space!

It works just fine with the latest 2017 MacBook Pro and is less expensive than the comparable Apple adapter.

It works just as I expected, and it looks great on my MacBook Pro 2017.

Every time I bring my MacBook to work, I always have to bring the original little white Apple adapter, plug it in back and forth to home-work, work-home... Well, those days are over. Now, I can leave the Xcellon 100W USB-C Universal AC Adapter permanently on my desk at work while the original Apple charger is stored in the laptop's case to take it anywhere else. The original Apple charger is only 30 watts, which I also used it for other USB-C PD devices, but the Xcellon for being 100 watts, is much better. It will deliver intelligently up to 100 watts to whatever device that needs that much current, like a bigger laptop or an V-Mount battery and will also safely charge my MacBook to only supplying the appropriate current it needs. Nothing more. That's what PD means: "Power Delivery". Very happy with it, it does what it's supposed to and now I have two ways to charge my laptop. Also, it features a built-In Circuit Protection Circuitry, and if you live in a country that is 220 volts, the charger automatically switches to the appropriate wattage (110/220), no problem. Just plug it in and forget it... [I have received this product in exchange for my honest review]

When you buy a MacBook Pro it comes in exceptionally nice sturdy packaging. The packaging is meant to not only hold the laptop firmly and safely in place it also holds the wall charger as well as an extension cord for the wall charger designed for a standard 3-prong wall socket. With this Pelican case you can remove the appropriate foam within the Pelican case in order to set the MacBook Pro packaging (i.e. the box the computer comes in) right in the center of the case. See attached pictures. Fits perfectly and with just the Apple packaging showing in the foam it looks ultra professional. Yet everything is sitting in the packaging as it comes from Apple. No need to cut out multiple pieces of foam in order for the laptop and included items. Simply cut out a rectangular chunk the size of the Apple packaging and you're good to go!! Sure it's only a case but I love it! I take excellent care of what I own and the laptop gets carried around every day and there is no worry about damaging it any longer. Combine the above by making the purchase through B&H and you're ready to travel without fear.

This is a very nicely made charger and will keep all of your devices charged. I have tested it on my 16 Apple Silicon MacBook Pro. It will charge the MacBook Pro at 100 Watts so it can also handle an iPhone, Watch and iPad. Very compact and the 6 foot extension cord is a great idea as it makes it easy to use for international travel.

Do everything that do my MacBook charger, but this one is cheaper and more compact. One bad thing - can't change plug to european (apple's can), must use an adapter that is not so solid and handy.

This charger negates my need for the big Apple charger for my MacBook Pro, for my iPhone 13 and Apple Watch 9. Since they never need to be charged at the same time, I can handle two at a time. Great bargain and if it ever goes on sale, I'll get another!

I upgraded my 2017 MacBook Pro and it really seems it worth it. This new 2020 Macbook is very fast, has a much better battery and a totally new keyboard. As usual, Apple made a very good job!

I 'downgraded' from a top of the line 2017 15 Macbook Pro to this base model MacBook Air. My work consisted of programming and web browsing, and for those 2 use cases, this laptop actually performs better. Furthermore, the keyboard feels a lot better to type on than the previous generation, and shouldn't have any of the durability concerns. I also like getting the function keys back, the touch bar never did much for me. Lightweight, fast, and a great value.
