there's no apple logo above the "MagSafe charger" text, which means it's fake, as on legit charger boxes there's an apple logo above the "MagSafe charger" text. also, the resolution of the product image on that box is way too low to be real

If it's a mag safe charger and doesn't have apple logos or text is it actually fake then?

if the BOX does not have the apple logo on them, its most likely fake

That doesn’t necessarily make it a fake charger, it just makes it not an apple charger.

but in this case, OP was talking about their Magsafe charger that clearly looks like apple's Magsafe charger, but has no mention of apple anywhere on the box. If you compare it with an actual Magsafe charger box, the front would have an apple logo and would mention compatible devices. If this was from a different charger from another company, like Belkin, then still it would mention which apple devices are compatible.
