I can't imagine anyone arguing against USB-C iPhones. I've been hoping they'd make the switch for years. Having said that, I'll still be stuck with Lightning on my AirPods case and my Magic Keyboards and Trackpads. Totally worth it in the long-run to have everything on one connector.
Haha the apple subreddit has so many people who defend lightning. It’s such a toxic subreddit.
Lightning has some advantages over USB-C. No thin plastic lip that can break. No thin slot that can accumulate dirt. If a Lightning socket is dirty, you can pick it out with a toothpick and it’s good as new. No chance on USB-C.
However, I do like only needing one type of cable and the higher speeds of USB-C.
Usb C iPhone and sideloading is about all I need to consider switching from Android. Can only see this as a good move.
My iPad is USB-C, I am expecting it to come to the iPhone due to EU regulations, they need to have USB-C on iPhones by 28 Dec 2024.
There's a good chance Apple would get rid of the port entirely and stick to wireless charging. My understanding is that the regulations doesn't requires a port. Rather, if it does have a port, it needs to be USB-C.
