For pro versions I don't think it's money. They can charge me extra for not having to use an adapter (just make ipod air pro more expensive). I'm happy to pay extra for USB-C.
I think it's more to do with how Apple releases new products (no incremental updates without big announcements)
- raydev 5y agoI think you're underestimating the amount of shared production/tech between the two tiers of iPhones. I'd bet the cost of changing over to USB-C on only the expensive tier would outweigh the current MSRP difference. I'd also bet USB-C still isn't cheap enough at iPhone mass market scale. They're either waiting to use USB-C across all new models, or they're convinced wireless is worth waiting another few years.
