USB-C LET’S FUCKING GOOOOOOOO
It’s a usb-c cable.
This is the last portable device I had that wasn’t usb-c.
Thanks to my AirPods, my phone is not the last hold out in my arsenal.
Thanks to AirPods not having type C I don’t own them.
Admittedly, I’m assuming they’ll make a usb-c case for them at some point soon
Not like they have a choice
There are reports that they are going to be released alongside the iPhones this year.
When the Serial Bus is finally Universal
Actually, just the shape. The bus itself is just a horrible mess.

That’s fair lmao
The fact that there isn’t one cable spec capable of every and all protocols for USB-C is ridiculous IMO
Exactly. Singular “A” cable. And it’s “the” only cable I keep around or buy anything for. I refuse to use a dumb lighting port so instead I own a lighting to type C adapter. No more multiple cables; Its a cable.
Only for uk though you know damn well they'll sell lightning phones in the U.S. because they'll never be forced to change
Having more SKUs is harder and more expensive to maintain; they will sell the inclusion of USB-C as a way to unify their charger across their platforms and to add Thunderbolt to the Pro models.
I really hope it has USB-C so I can finally get an iPhone. It blows my mind that all of their other devices adopted USB-C while they stick with lightning for their phones.
