Apple’s highly anticipated iPhone 15 series is rumored to make the switch from Lightning to USB-C, according to recent leaks. While USB-C has been the standard for most Android devices for years, Apple has finally embraced the port on its latest iPhone models. However, not all USB-C ports on the iPhone 15 series will be the same, with the Pro models offering much higher data transfer speeds (Thunderbolt 3) than the regular iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus.
The latest leak suggests that the iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max will be able to connect to external displays via the USB-C port, adding a new level of functionality to the device. While the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus will have USB-C connectors, their data transfer speeds will be restricted to the USB 2.0 speeds available on Lightning iPhones and the iPad 10th-gen tablet, which also has a USB-C connector.
