Fun fact: “obsfurcate” is used in the article. It is not recognized as a word by any dictionary consulted.

WTG TechCrunch.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Apple finally switched to the USB-C port with the iPhone 15 series at its Wanderlust event.

While having a ubiquitous port for all phones (and most other gadgets) is a good thing, there is a dire need to label USB-C cables to understand their full capability.

But unless you pay close attention, the combo of cable and power brick might not be charging your device at the optimum speed.

While Apple has switched to the USB-C port with the iPhone 15, the base models will still have USB 2.0 speeds for data transfers.

The complexity doesn’t end there as while new standards like USB 4 share a connector with Thunderbolt 4 or 5, the capabilities differ.

With the new launch, Apple has also released a bunch of USB-C-based accessories, but it’s not clear if there will be any labeling or visual marker to indicate the different features of a cable.

The original article contains 565 words, the summary contains 150 words. Saved 73%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

There's a LOT of useless articles about apple changing to usb c...wonder how much apple paid to push the news out
