Apple is ready to embrace USB-C technology in an ever-expanding family of products. The information was provided by Mark Gorman, an analyst at Bloomberg, who also notes that The company will, as early as 2024, move all of its wireless accessories to the USB-C region.
to be confirmed, This decision will make most Apple products compatible with EU decision to adopt USB-C as a universal charger. It is reported that the law of society will oblige all technology manufacturers to produce smartphones, tablets and headphones with this technology, so from 2024 it will not be possible to launch new models in member states that do not have USB-C. . In 2026, the directive will cover laptops.
Gurman reported, in May, that Apple was going to start testing the first USB-C iPhones and now says the iPhone 15 will already have such a port.
Despite the shift, the analyst also stresses that Apple’s ultimate goal is to create a line of equipment that only supports wireless charging. This is a possibility not covered by European law (it only covers wired charging technologies) and which may allow Apple to circumvent it.
