  • iPhone 15 Pro review: Best balance of performance to price yet in an iPhone

    The "Apple did USB C on their own" is simply not true. Apple agreed in 2009 and 2014 to standardize the connector. EU told about the plans in 2019 to make it USB-C - that is 4 years ago. And no... Apple couldn't wait to next year. Apple is selling iPhone 13, 14, 15 - next year it will be 14, 15, 16... but at the end of 2024 only USB-C devices can be in the shops.

    Apple will have to terminate sales of non USB-C devices clear all inventory from 27 countries... if they did so with 16 then they would have 3 months to get rid of all previous versions. It had to be this year, and even so iPhone 14 will have to be removed ahead of time from EU probably early next year to avoid having the products in the shops.
    You’re wrong about a lot of this. The EU announced the ruling on USB-C in 2021, and announced the timing of it at the end of 2022. Also, only phones newly introduced to the market after the deadline (Dec 28, 2024) will have to have USB-C. Apple can continue to sell pre-existing models after that.
