My latest survey indicates that 2H23 new iPhone will abandon Lightning port and switch to USB-C port. USB-C could improve iPhone’s transfer and charging speed in hardware designs, but the final spec details still depend on iOS support.— Ming-Chi Kuo (@mingchikuo) May 11, 2022
The iPhone 15 model is expected to be released in the second half of 2023. That’s why it is said that the first iPhone with a USB-C port will be the iPhone 15.
Apple will most likely continue to use the Lightning port in the iPhone 14 family.
However, the rumors do not consist of Apple-confirmed information. Therefore, there is always the possibility that the company’s final plan may be different.
