Just a few months ago Apple launched the new iPhone 14, 14 Plus, 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max on the market, and there is already talk of what the next models will be like, i.e. iPhone 15, yes, in this case forced by the latest European regulations with chargers and the USB-C standard. However, Apple’s plans may be different, we tell you everything in this post.
There may not be an iPhone with USB-C
After the latest regulations that have been approved by the European Parliament, all smartphones will have to have a charging standard from 2024, i.e. if Apple wants to keep a charging port in the next models, it will finally have to Put USB-C on iPhone. Indeed, in one of the latest statements by one of the members of the board of directors of the Cupertino company, he admitted that they will have to adapt to the regulations and respect them like other companies. Or not?.
It’s clear that Apple doesn’t want to include the USB-C port in the iPhone, since if it did, it would already be implemented the same way it is on Mac and iPad. However, for some reason, Cupertino does not welcome the fact that this port is also found on iPhones, which is why Apple can finally avoid this regulation and not include it.
The question is, could Apple do it? The answer is yes. According to the approved regulation, the upcoming iPhone 15 is not expected to comply However, this new law speaks to devices that will be launched after 2024 and the iPhone 15 will be launched, predictably, in September 2023. This would give Apple more time to adopt the solution that it has been looking for for a long time, and is getting a completely wireless iPhone.
This rumor is not new, indeed it is something that has been talked about for some time and which sooner or later will end up coming true, given that Apple’s goal is to be able to give users a device made completely in one piece. and that’s just what it could be the iPhone 16 which would be the first to have to comply with this European regulation.
Indeed, many rumors indicate that Apple is working on a dramatic improvement in MagSafe technology, so that it can perform the functions that, in theory, USB-C would. The big question is how Apple will provide to transfer different files from iPhone to other devices, as photo and video files weigh more each time and AirDrop is not as fast as many would like. Furthermore, this movement would also be accompanied by a radical change in the design of the iPhone, since, as we have mentioned, it would be made in one piece, also eliminating the buttons and replacing them with tactile areas that would give the user the same options they had until now with device buttons. However, these are nothing more than rumors, so we will have to be very careful of everything that can come out around this possibility.
