It seems that USB-C iPhones are on the horizon. There’s a high chance that the rest of the accessories that still uses Lightning port will get updated with USB-C port. I do have have the MagSafe Battery Pack and Duo Travel Charger. Having them all in USB-C seems like a breeze as you don’t need to bring Lightning cable anymore but the transition would be expensive. Anyone replacing all their Lightning accessories once they got updated?
My iphone and airpods are the only things that still charge with not USB C.
I cant wait to be free of the lightning cables.
Lightning was amazing when it came out, and helped to push USB-C. Still, its time has come. I’m anxious to ditch lightning and then only need usb-C for iphone, iPad, and laptop. Then I can use Apple Watch charger to charge watch and AirPods Pro 2. With some mag safe chargers around the house, I’ll be set.
I already had a lot of USB-C stuff, then bought some lightning stuff as I had my first iPhone (13). I think I won’t buy a new iPhone until they make em USB-C.
Will take years before we get rid of Lightning here. The wife have an iPhone 13 mini and she’ll likely keep that until it dies.
Funnily you would have this because of the European Unions directive and at the time Apple was opposing the move, because they want them to get their Lightning license fee from all third party makers of accessories and this source of income would dry up once they switch to USB-C.
I am actually a bit surprised of how many people are supporting Apple’s anti consumer behavior by buying their stuff.
