His information is supposedly from supply chain sources and his predictions often materialize. <\/p>\n<p>Apple is annually rumored to replace the proprietary Lightning port with the universal and plain better USB-C. We&#8217;ve reported on such rumors regularly since 2017. Kuo himself has predicted the move a few times through the years. <\/p>\n<p>If this latest info pans out, the iPhone 14 series will be the last Lightning-equipped iPhone. Apple has already moved most of its devices to USB-C, leaving only the entry-level iPad and the AirPods lineup, aside from the iPhone. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"inline-image\" width=\"1200\" height=\"580\" src=\"https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/22\/05\/apple-usb-c-haha\/-1200w5\/gsmarena_001.jpg\" alt=\"Kuo: the iPhone 15 to finally adopt USB-C in 2023\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The iPhone 15 will benefit in various ways from the adoption of USB-C &#8211; faster charging and broader connectivity, particularly with Apple&#8217;s own USB-C-powered devices. And if you think Apple will stand to lose money by going the non-proprietary route, a USB-C to Lightning cable is the same EUR25 as a USB-C to USB-C cable on Cupertino&#8217;s website. <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">(1\/2)<br \/>My latest survey indicates that 2H23 new iPhone will abandon Lightning port and switch to USB-C port. USB-C could improve iPhone&#8217;s transfer and charging speed in hardware designs, but the final spec details still depend on iOS support. <\/p>\n<p>&#8212; Guo Ming Qi  (Ming-Chi Kuo) (@mingchikuo) <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/mingchikuo\/status\/1524329801045409794?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 11, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<div class=\"source-image\">https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/22\/05\/apple-usb-c-haha\/-952x498w6\/gsmarena_000.jpg<\/div>\n<div class=\"source-link\">https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/kuo_the_iphone_15_to_finally_adopt_usbc_in_2023-news-54269.php?rand=119<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kuo: the iPhone 15 to finally adopt USB-C in 2023 The iPhone 15 will be the first iPhone to adopt a USB-C port in place of Lightning, per analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.
