At a Wall Street Journal event, Apple’s vice president of worldwide marketing, Greg Joswiak, stated that despite the disagreement between Apple and the EU on the matter, the tech giant will have to comply with the EU’s new standard charger directive.
As you probably know, the EU wants USB-C ports to become mandatory on all devices by 2024. The EU’s demand aims to improve consumer convenience and reduce electronic waste by allowing customers to use a single charger for all their devices.
But when can we expect Apple to release an iPhone with USB-C? Well, unfortunately, Joswiak didn’t say. However, the rumor mill suggests that next year’s iPhone 15 lineup will actually feature a USB-C port instead of Lightning.
In a tweet back in May, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo stated that his latest — at that time — survey indicates that Apple will release an iPhone with USB-C in the second half of 2023.
A few days later, Mark Gurman from Bloomberg also reiterated Kuo’s rumor by claiming that Apple is indeed testing iPhone models with USB-C ports, and if the company continues with its tests, it will most likely release an iPhone with USB-C around 2023.
