The iPhone 15 may use the USB-C

Interface to attract heated discussions!

Recently, a well-known Apple analyst issued a document saying that Apple is expected to replace the USB-C data interface for the iPhone 15 in 2023.

This news has also attracted widespread attention. After all, this is Apple's once-in-a-decade big move.

It is reported that the Lightning interface currently adopted by Apple was officially launched on the iPhone 5 in 2012. At that time, it won a lot of praise for its advantages of compactness and compactness, complete positive and negative blind insertion.

But today, ten years later, the USB 2.0 transfer rate of the Lightning interface, the fast charging support for pulling the crotch, etc., have become constraints restricting the development of the iPhone.

However, from the point of view of interest, the MFi protocol of the Lightning interface can bring huge benefits to Apple every year. The licensing fee for accessories is worthless, which is an important reason why Apple has not given up.

However, given that the iPad has gradually begun to replace USB-C across the board, it is also reliable to use the USB-C interface on the iPhone 15, and it can bring great improvements in fast charging and speed.

However, it should be noted that some users are actually reluctant to replace USB-C. The most important reasons are two aspects.

One is that the Lightning interface is very small, much smaller than USB-C;

The second is that the Lightning interface has a longer life. At present, the Lightning interface is rarely damaged, but the USB-C interface is more prone to damage, in particular, the "small tongue" contact part of the mobile phone will be damaged and poor contact after being used for a long time.
