Apple announced the iPhone 15 lineup today, and here’s the big takeaway: The iPhone 15 will have a USB-C charging port instead of Apple’s proprietary Lightning port, bringing the iPhone in line with every other modern smartphone, computer, tablet, camera, and pair of headphones.
It might sound like an irritating change at first, especially if you have a pile of Lightning cables, but Apple’s adoption of this standard is generally good news, even if the company’s hand was kind of forced by a European Union mandate that requires mobile devices to adopt USB-C by late 2024. Rather than needing to keep another, separate cable for your Apple devices, you’ll be able to use a USB-C cable to charge, say, your iPhone 15, Nintendo Switch, Bose headphones, and Windows laptop.
