Will the Lightning port go away? In any case, a report seems to point to the next generation of smartphones from Apple, particularly for the iPhone 14 Pro.
USB-C is becoming the standard for cell phones, especially because it has many advantages such as cable reversibility, generally faster charging times, and so on. If the iPhone 13 has not yet dared to draw a line on the famous port lightning
Saying goodbye to an “old friend”?
Indeed, according to a report by iDropNews citing several “reliable” sources, Apple would consider adding USB-C to its iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max models. On the other hand, there is no indication of this strategic shift for the more classic model for the time being.
Apple’s goal in particular would be to offer better transfer rates, as the Lightning is seriously showing its age in this regard. And it is not the arrival of very high definition video that will improve it, quite the contrary.
The law is the law for Apple and its iPhones too
The other brake and not least on the sustainability of Lightning is quite simply the law, because the EU Commission wants to introduce a universal USB-C charger. And that is currently also being discussed in the USA. This obligation in Europe could come into effect as early as 2024. The countdown has clearly begun for Apple.
This could also make it possible to make the Apple ecosystem less rigid and put an end to the famous question for good.Does anyone have an iPhone charger?“on vacation or in the office. This is great news!
