Is the Apple 60W MagSafe Power Adapter better than 2012 in that way that the yellow color situation does not happen anymore?

Question

Introduction

For an old MacBook Pro bought in 2012 as:

• MBP 13.3/2.9/2X4GB/750/SD
• Model No: A1278

The cable of the MagSafe since years ago changed the color to "yellow" and many parts of the cable itself become cracked, it about a 98%. The partial "solution" is put a masking tape (the one made with a special paper - not plastic - with color white/cream) for each cracked part. It works since 5/6/7 yrs ago and so far ...

It seems it happens normally according with:

• MagSafe Power Cable Going Yellow
• Why doesn't a stripped/cracked MagSafe power cable shock?
• Will the "cracked" wire of a MacBook charger eletrocute me

I have other laptops and well it only happens for the MacBook Pro. Of course this cable/wire is thinner than others products (HP, ASUS, etc).

NOTE

Here the voltage in my country is 220v

Situation

Because nothing is eternal, I want have as backup other MagSafe. I did do a research at:

• Identify your Mac power adapter

That matches with:

60W MagSafe Power Adapter with "L" style connector

13-inch MacBook Pro models introduced in 2010 through 2012

• Power & Cables - Mac Accessories

That matches with: Apple 60W MagSafe Power Adapter (for MacBook and 13-inch MacBook Pro)

And Yes, my current MagSafe has printed 60W MagSafe Power Adapter too

Question

• Is the Apple 60W MagSafe Power Adapter (for MacBook and 13-inch MacBook Pro) better than 2012 in that way that the yellow color situation does not happen anymore?

I mean, better material applied to manufacturing. I am assuming this situation about the yellow case was reported since 2012 to Apple and it was fixed.

Furthermore, it has a cost of US$75.00, not cheap, and would be very bad experience if this "yellow" situation remains until now. So has no sense be buying this MagSafe each N years.
