Apple has been using the Lightning port on iPhones for a long time. However, many countries, especially the European Union (EU), insist on the use of USB Type-C. In particular, the EU wants chargers to be of the same standard in member countries. In fact, in recent months, the European Commission, the executive body of the European Union (EU), suggested that the charging inputs be of the same standard and that these chargers be used in EU member countries. However, Apple has not yet taken a step towards the use of USB Type-C in iPhones. A new claim showed us that Apple management may have another plan; iPhone without charging port…
“IPHONE WITHOUT CHARGING” ALLEGED EVENT!
According to that claim, Apple may consider removing the charging port on iPhones completely instead of switching to USB Type-C. It was emphasized that if Apple removes the charging port, it can provide more internal space on iPhones and get rid of the cost of switching to Type-C.
There are also reports that Apple CEO Tim Cook may consider completely eliminating the charging port on iPhones.
If this claim turns out to be true, iPhones will be released without a charging port and will be charged via wireless charging.
APPLE’S WIRELESS CHARGING SPEED BEHIND BUT…
However, with the speed of wireless charging technology that Apple is currently using, it lags far behind its Chinese competitors. For example, one of the Chinese smartphone brands participating in MWC 2022 is developing a technology that allows your phone to be fully charged in 9 minutes. Most of the Android flagships on the market provide a full charge in an average of 30 minutes.
As a result of Apple’s decision to remove the charging port, it is expected to focus more on wireless charging technology and bring its own technology to a level that can compete with the technology of its competitors.
