Apple introduced the new generation iPhone 13 family last September. The phones, which attract attention with their features and design, have come with many innovations in terms of both software and hardware. However, the most important change that users were eagerly waiting for did not come.
Today, many smartphones and new generation technologies use the USB-C port for charging and data transfer. This includes Apple products such as the iPad and MacBook. However, the company continues to use its own technology, Lightning input, on iPhone models. Fortunately, this is changing.
iPhone 14 will have a USB-C port
According to the news of iDrop News, based on various sources, Apple is giving up its stubbornness this year. The company plans to release a phone with a USB-C port for the first time next September. The US technology giant has Lightning technology, which has been offering USB 2.0 speed since 2021. However, this input is still slow compared to USB.
If the allegations are true, it looks like the company will finally offer the USB-C port on the iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max. Unfortunately, if the leaks are true, this port will not be included in the standard model. The main reason why it is in Pro models is the size of ProRes videos.
For example; It will take approximately 3 hours and 45 minutes to transfer a 720GB unedited 4K video via the Lightning port with USB 2.0 transfer rate. If the same file is taken from the 2021 iPad Pro with a USB-C port, the transfer is completed in just 3 minutes. But this is not the only reason.
Apple, which has been under pressure from the European Union for a while, is struggling to continue using the Lightning port. But the allegations suggest that the Biden administration wants it too, and the company may have to give up. This increases the possibility that not only Pro devices, but also the standard iPhone 14 model will come with USB-C.
Although the US technology giant is against it, this seems to please the users. The fact that the universal USB-C port is located on iPhones means that a single charger can be used on all devices. Thus, while the cable and compatibility problem is eliminated, the damage to nature is expected to decrease.
