Apple is preparing to unveil the iPhone 15 series in September. These models will use the USB-C port instead of Lightning for the first time in iPhone history. However, a new claim showed that Apple may also introduce refurbished iPhone 14 models with USB-C.
iPhone 14 claim with USB-C port
According to recent reports, Apple may take an unprecedented step. It has been stated that the technology giant will launch updated iPhone 14 models with a USB-C port. These devices will also be more affordable.
A code spotted by an iOS developer in the tvOS 17 beta refers to two new iPhone models. Interestingly, the model numbers indicate that they are not iPhone 15s. It shows iPhone 14 devices powered by last year’s A15 chip.
This code in tvOS 17 beta shows that the iPhone 14 series will be refreshed with a USB Type-C port. The change will also make it easier for Apple to sell in Europe. For those who don’t know, the EU requires all phones to use USB-C by 2027.
In addition, it has been reported that the iPhone 15 models will be increased. It has even been claimed that the iPhone 15 Pro Max will be the most expensive model ever and its tag will reach up to 1300 dollars. The refurbished iPhone 14 may be offered to users as a cheaper alternative.
Replacing an already on sale series with USB-C is an unexpected strategy for Apple. The iPhone 14 models are not expected to change except for the charging point.
