Apple announced Tuesday its new iPhone 15 lineup will feature a new USB-C charging port.
EU officials believe the rule will reduce waste since people will not need to buy a new charger when they purchase a new device.
"USB-C has become a universally accepted standard, so we're bringing it to iPhone," a presenter said during the Apple launch event Tuesday. The shift to USB-C chargers for the iPhone 15 will mean that Apple users' old Lightning cables will no longer work. But many people already have the right cables for their laptops, headphones and other gadgets, and Apple will also likely include a cable in the iPhone 15 boxes.
