Apple is reportedly planning to switch the upcoming iPhone 15 models to the USB-C format, replacing the Lightning port used in previous models, in accordance with the European Union's regulation mandating the incorporation of a USB-C charging port for all mobile phones sold in the EU.
Apple plans to refresh its accessories with USB-C ports, including AirPods and Mac accessories, following the transition away from Lightning on the iPhone 15 lineup.
Apple is expected to unveil four models of the iPhone 15, with upgraded cameras, slimmer design, USB-C support, and improved performance, at its fall event, while the Apple Watch Series 9 will feature incremental upgrades and the newest AirPods may come with USB-C charging.
Apple is aiming to have all its accessories switched to USB-C by next year, including a new version of the MagSafe Duo and a stackable MagSafe battery pack that can charge multiple devices simultaneously, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman.
