I use these magnetic USB-C adpaters on my phone, it works fine for charging and data transfer: https://a.aliexpress.com/_BSorDx https://a.aliexpress.com/_BSorDx I haven't tried more extensive tests (e.g. video out) but I don't see any real reason why Apple couldn't make a more official (i.e. USB-C certified) version. As the sister comment says, if it's for power only then it is simpler. I'd imagine rather than adapters like this, you would plug in a cable that has a magnetic joint somewhere near the end that can 'break' if pulled.
