No. The MagSafe port is for the old-version MacBook, and it needs authorized certifications from Apple, so MagSafe port is not in our plan.

The case is crafted of microfiber leather, which is breathable and at the same time, with a cooler fan inside, it will also help dissipate heat faster.

Q10.When resting the Macbook on the Dockcase, does the side without the ports have any supports to keep the Macbook sitting straight? Or does the Macbook sit at an angle?

There is a sleeve flap on the other side that helps keep the balance. It will keep perfect balance when you place the computer on the sleeve. And it will be slightly uneven within a 3° angle when you place the computer on the dock.

We have a sleeve flap but I don't think it can hold chargers and external hard drives. But we do have a special sleeve in the case to store our C to C cable.
