iPhones finally made the switch to USB-C, joining the ranks of most other Apple devices like iPads and Macs. This means you can now use a single cable to charge all your Apple gadgets, making your life a whole lot easier.
Faster charging, more flexibility
The iPhone 15 supports fast charging with 20-watt or 30-watt power adapters, so you can get your phone juiced up in no time.
And unlike Lightning, USB-C is not proprietary, so you can use any USB-C cable or accessory on the market.
Become a power bank
The iPhone 15 can also output power, so you can use it to charge other devices like your AirPods or even another iPhone. This is great for when you're on the go and need to give your gadgets a quick boost.
Connect to external displays
With USB-C, you can easily connect your iPhone to an external display for screen mirroring or presentations. Just use a USB-C to HDMI cable and you're good to go.
Expand your storage
Connect a USB-C hard drive or SD card reader to your iPhone and browse files directly using the Files app. This is perfect for photographers who want to import photos from their camera or anyone who needs extra storage space.
Wired accessories
USB-C also means you can connect wired accessories like keyboards, microphones, and even wired headphones to your iPhone. This is great for when you need a more reliable connection or want to save battery life.
Multi-port hubs
USB-C hubs allow you to connect multiple devices to your iPhone at the same time. This is great for when you need to connect to an external display, power source, and USB accessories all at once.
