Apple has issued a firmware update, version 3.2.0, for its 2-meter MagSafe 3 USB-C charging cable. This is the first firmware release for the accessory since February 2023, indicating ongoing support for the charging peripheral.

The cable is designed for charging Mac laptops through the MagSafe 3 port, featuring a magnetic connector that guides it into place. It supports fast charging when paired with a compatible USB-C power adapter. The braided design aims for durability.
