what right now unknown is the charging port type which market regulators in India intend to use for wearable devices. It is clear that the bet will be on the part of the industry for a solution already widely used on the market such as these docks or pogo pins.
This will force brands like Apple and Samsung to provide the right charger, at least in India, and soon spread to other countries so that there is a standard among all manufacturers. Rohit Kumar Singh, consumer secretary, says they must align themselves with the roadmap imposed by the European Union to apply this new directive in 2024.
