The USB-C data cable used in the iPhone 15 series is exposed
Apple is poised to unveil its next-generation iPhone 15 series, with one of the most salient alterations being the incorporation of the USB-C port, supplanting the long-standing Lightning port. This modification is in consonance with the new device sale mandates in regions like the European Union. Prevailing reports intimate that, despite the transition to this ubiquitous interface, a proprietary chipset will be integrated to synchronize exclusively with iOS, thereby curtailing users from utilizing compatible charging accessories.
Recent revelations from Twitter user @KosutamiSan disclose the USB-C cables slated for the iPhone 15 series, manifesting in a kaleidoscope of hues, encompassing obsidian, canary yellow, roseate, azure, and lavender. Predominantly, these shades are of a pastel tenor, likely devised to resonate with the corresponding chromatic schemes of the forthcoming models. Annually, beyond the customary standard shades, Apple customarily infuses an array of novel colors, proffering a myriad of choices for its discerning clientele.
It’s conjectured that these cable hues are tailored primarily for the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus. Though undoubtedly compatible with the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, Apple is anticipated to unveil an additional palette, possibly incorporating deeper, more profound shades. It’s understood these cables are prototypes, imbued with distinctive materials, setting them apart from the archetypal USB-C braided cables.
This isn’t Apple’s maiden foray into color-coordinated cables. Hitherto, they’ve retailed varicolored MagSafe cables tailored for the MacBook Air. Introducing these chromatic cables for iPhone models signifies a monumental shift for Apple, symbolizing both a design and marketing paradigm evolution concomitant with the shift to the USB-C port.
