I suppose GP meant "portless", assuming that iPhone may drop lightning port without replacement and only rely on the wireless charging.

- pg_1234 5y agoThe intention is clearly that the consumer be able to charge any phone using a generic usb-c charger. Apple's proprietary wireless charging would fail that criteria. I imagine that if Apple made their technology an industry standard, that a) others could implement, and b) Apple were themselves governed by, then the EU would consider it in addition to usb-c.
