What Is MagSafe?

Before Apple introduced USB-C charging for their iPhone lineup, MagSafe technology was employed to ensure easy connectivity for the charger, and easy disconnectivity for the charger should it become snagged, therefore avoiding damage.
With the arrival of the iPhone 12, we now have an all-new MagSafe system that can be used to charge your devices without the need for a cable. How is this possible?
