We’ve known that the iPhone is switching to USB-C for a while now, but there was always a possibility that Apple would stick with Lightning for one more year. Based on the latest leaked images, however, Apple is all-in on USB-C for the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro models, with USB-C parts for the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, and iPhone 15 Pro Max all shown in a leaked image by X user fix Apple.

With the switch to USB-C, nearly all of Apple’s devices will have adopted the new standard, with only AirPods, Mac accessories, and the iPhone SE remaining aside from older iPhones and the 9th-gen iPad.

fucking hell are we really at number 15? Are they just going to keep going with this naming scheme until the iPhone 1523?

    You simply cant win. People make fun of Xbox fand Windows for having non sequential names, and iPhone gets berated for having a naming scheme that's sensical, easy to follow and date

    Yup, out of all the things I hate about Apple, their iPhone's naming scheme is something I wish other brands would follow (including Apple with thier other devices).

    Apple iPad on the other hand, is a completely mess.

    To OP, what's wrong with sequential names? I look at an iphone and i know exactly when they were released and their relative performance to other iphone models. Why is it a bad thing?

    Remember the New iPad, or the 3rd gen iPad as literally everyone called it?

    Apple did try to simplify in the same way they did with Macs, but then they fragmented the iPad line so much that it was difficult to keep up, so now you have "12.9" 2022 iPad Pro" as opposed to "5th gen iPad Air".

    Still, it's better than the abominations that Sony come out with. Looking at you, WH-1000XM4 headphones, or Bravia KD55X75WL (2023).

    Samsung went straight from S10 to S20.

    that makes a lot more sense, it looks better and you get the well-proven benefit of bigger numbers.

    Eventually you get to S3000 and that's when you know you've made it
