Apple may soon adopt the widely used USB-C charging port.
Apple may be considering a move to the USB-C format over its proprietary lightning port.
Both the iPhone and Apple Watch use USB-C for their power bricks.
That would force rig makers to use USB-C ports.
Most Android phones and tablets already use USB-C, and they charge devices faster than the lightning charger.
Apple has also been working on iPhones that don’t have any charging ports.
It doesn’t seem like Apple will be releasing a portless iPhone in the foreseeable future.
Then in 2012, Apple made the switch to the lightning port for the iPhone 5.
