Apple may be forced to remove the Lightning port from the iPhone in favor of USB C, European Commission will present the legislation next month.
The legislation would establish a common charging port for all mobile phones and other relevant devices in all European Union countries. The move is expected to primarily affect Apple, since many popular Android devices already feature USB-C ports.
In 2018, the European Commission tried to reach a final resolution on the issue but it failed to come into law. At the time, Apple warned that forcing a common charging port on the industry would stifle innovation and create electronic waste as consumers were forced to switch to new cables.
A European Commission impact assessment study conducted in 2019 found that half of all charging cables sold with mobile phones had a USB micro-B cable ,29 percent had a USB C cable, and 21 percent had a Lightning cable. The study suggested five options for a common charger, with various options that cover ports on devices and ports on power adapters.
Last year, the debate was reignited as the European Parliament overwhelmingly voted in favor of a common charger, citing less environmental waste and user convenience as the main benefits.The executive branch of the European Union is currently drafting the legislation, according to sources speaking to Reuters, which is expected to be presented next month.
If Apple adopts type-c interface, Apple will have a great loss, because the product is not sharp and there is no comparison. There are many products in the appearance, there is no product identification. But for users, it's really a blessing. There's an Android phone and an iPhone. That's a great way to get around with just one charger. Because most of android pone is with usb C cable.
