Apple to put USB-C connectors in iPhones to comply with EU rules
- coldtea 4y ago>But the company had pushed back against requirements to switch its phones to the standard, saying that “strict regulation mandating just one type of connector stifles innovation rather than encouraging it, which in turn will harm consumers in Europe and around the world”. If corporate innovation in ports means keeping Lighting in iPhones and Airpods and such in 2022, when you already have moved most of your products to the other "one type of connector" already, then fuck it... You're just using it as a price differentiator (cheap vs premium iPads) etc.
