Apple has officially made the switch from Lightning ports to USB-C for its entire iPhone lineup with the launch of the iPhone 16E. The company has gradually transitioned other products, including iPads and various accessories, to USB-C over the years. This shift means that older models such as the iPhone 14 and third-generation iPhone SE will no longer be available for purchase. Although Apple still offers some Lightning-dependent accessories, the move to USB-C streamlines charging and accessory options for users, compelling many to upgrade their devices.
Apple has stopped selling iPhones with Lightning ports with the launch of the iPhone 16E, marking a significant shift to USB-C for its devices.
This change isn't a surprise, as Apple has gradually migrated products to USB-C from Lightning, which was introduced over a decade ago.
Apple still sells some accessories relying on Lightning, but with the new iPhone options available, many users are prompted to make the switch.
Even though I prefer Lightning, it's now essential to transition to a USB-C iPhone with the diverse new options available.
