Apple iphone 15 may get USB type-C charging port next year suggests report

Technical | The biggest problem for those using iPhone models of California-based tech company Apple is related to its charger and they have to carry the charger of the iPhone separately. The good thing is that soon iPhone users may get the option to charge the device with the help of chargers installed in Android devices.

Bloomberg's Mark Garman told in his newsletter's Power On newsletter that Apple may add a USB Type-C port to iPhones next year. At the same time, it may take at least two years for this connectivity to come in the company's TWS audio device AirPods. That is, by the year 2024, not only iPhones, AirPods will also be able to charge with Android phone chargers.

Changes will be seen in expensive iPhone models

The report says that the support for USB Type-C port can be seen in the iPhone 15 lineup to be launched next year. However, initially this feature will be provided only in the high end model iPhone 15 Ultra. Apple has not made any official confirmation of this, but it has been pressurized for a long time to bring iPhones with Type-C port.

pressure on apple to provide universal port

The tech company has been asked to comply with European law, where it has been made mandatory for all smartphones to have a USB-C port. Soon there is going to be an official law related to it, so that users get the option of one charger instead of different types of chargers. Apple has also paid fines several times for not giving the charging adapter in the box and not following the rules.

This port will also be available in other Apple accessories

If Mark Garman is to be believed, other Apple mobile accessories and Mac accessories may also support USB-C charging ports, including the Magic Mouse and Magic Keyboard, etc. However, it may take until 2024 for AirPods, AirPods Pro and AirPods Max to get USB-C ports. This can prove to be a good decision from the point of view of the users.
