iPhone should go USB-C, says Tony Fadell
, with the iPhone 15 embracing the USB-C port that’s been the standard charger for Android devices in the past few years.
Apple won’t be switching to USB-C on its own if it ever gets there. It’ll have to do it because regulatory bodies demand it. Like the European Union, which just decided tolike the iPhone. The USB-C vs. Lightning debate just saw another episode, with former Apple exec Tony Fadell saying that Apple should bring the USB-C port to the iPhone.
While the move to USB-C seems a no-brainer for the iPhone, as Apple did with the iPad, the Lightning connector still has fans. People who oppose the EU’s decision to regulate charging cables say that it’ll stifle competition. Lighting came before USB-C, a reversible data and power cable that was much better than microUSB on Android. And Apple played a role in developing USB-C.the iPod exec on Twitter about the EU’s decision to favor USB-C connectivity.
I can’t see a problem. The world has converged on USB-C. The physical & user limits have been hit. Next up is wireless per, not a diff physical connection. So I’m not too worried about this regulation. They’re simply forcing Apple to do the right thing… it’s overdue frankly.
