Apple intros new USB-C accessories to support 2018 iPad Pros
Assuming the iPhone goes to USBC, you could use a cable to charge an iphone, iPad, MacBook, and competitor devices.lovemn said:What does USB-3 offer that Lightening doesn’t?
Just hoping the iphone follows.

UK government plans 'Digital Services Tax' applied against Apple and other tech giants
Apple, generally speaking, is a liberal company with liberal views. It’s only fair that they pay to support their agenda which pushes for the richest (companies included) to reallocate to those below them.

Consumer Reports finds iPhone XS and XS Max last hours longer than iPhone X, contradicts p...
fastasleep said:Consumer Reports knocked Apple for the included charging brick, noting it took 210 minutes, or twice as long, to charge the iPhone XS Max compared to the Samsung Note 9. Apple could easily remedy the situation by including a USB-C fast charger in the box, something AppleInsiderhas mentioned repeatedly in our iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max reviews, though the company is unlikely to do so.
I almost never use the 5W chargers. The 12W iPad charger works much better, nearly as well as the USB-C charger, while being a lot cheaper as well. They should've included those at the very least for their $1000+ phones, it's pretty absurd to hobble charging so much.
I agree the old 10W or new 12W is a great charger for the larger phones. It is a complete joke that the Xs and Xs Max comes with a 5W charger. But that’s Apple, counting pennies, pushing up the margins.

I have it on but it will result in 0 change in use habits for me. Doubt it’ll change anyone I know.

Apple wins FCC clearance for iPhone XR in time for Oct. 19 preorders
If I wanted the screen size of the Xs and Xr, I would buy the Xr.robjn said:Although the XS has strong advantages over the XR, including true OLED blacks, HDR, optical zoom, higher pixel density, thinner, lighter, narrower bezels, etc - there are some good reasons for considering the XR.
Compared to XS, XR has
As much as 25% longer battery life.
Colors.
A 128GB option (if you need more than 64GB but don’t need 256GB this option makes the XR $350 cheaper!)
A bigger display that shows a little more content.
Symmetrical speaker grills and antenna lines.
I will get the Xs Max when I decide to move on from the 7+
