Death Lightningu tapped. This is exactly how the newly announced decision of the European Parliament on the unification of charging standards for products sold in the European Union could be summarized in a nutshell. The European Parliament has approved what has been actively discussed in recent weeks and months and as much as possible Applu has been getting quite a few wrinkles on his forehead for some time now.

The European Parliament specifically approved that by the end of 2024, all mobile phones, tablets and cameras must be equipped with a single charging port, which is, of course, none other than USB-C. From the spring of 2026, the obligation to use USB-C as a charging port also applies to laptops, which, however, is for Apple given that MacBooky USB-C already uses it without any problems. But what about the transition from LightningiPhones and basic iPads will not be able to avoid USB-C, and it is very likely that Apple along with them, it will also switch to USB-C for its peripherals, accessories, and basically everything else LightningIt abounds.

It is quite interesting that while after the initial publication of the law a few years ago, there were critical voices from ordinary users and even politicians about the interference in free enterprise, the current version of the "unifying" law was approved by 602 deputies.ancs, with only 13 voting against and 8 abstaining. It is therefore clear that the overall view of the issue has changed quite a bit in recent months. However, from the user's point of view, unifying the ports is only good, as it will increase their comfort thanks to the ability to use one charger for all electronics.
- Apple products can be purchased for example at AlgeIn iStores whether Mobil Pohotovost (U Mobil Pohotovost You can also take advantage of the Buy, Sell, Sell, Pay Back promotion, which allows you to iPhone 14 get it from 98 CZK per month)
Me to cry and a huge shame for Apple that the law must come to make their INCOMPATIBILITY even between their own products and deliberately making life difficult for usersonestop sign. It is not normal for a person to take 3 adapters and 4 cables for AW, iPad, iPhone a MacBook..
Eh, you don't need to take those three adapters, the AW can be charged without a problem even from a 90W adapter Macbookand basically the other way around too (tighten the 30W charger during normal work Macbook Pro 14″). iPad and Macbook runs fine on the same USB-C cable.
So, as a result, one adapter and three cables, and from 2024 it will be one less cable, which is not such a win...
It depends if it will only affect the European market. If it remains in the US iphonech lighting I lean towards imports.
Well, if that doesn't work, I'll buy an adapter like magsafe for the iPhone.
don't worry, I think that the minor incompatibility of mobile frequencies won't bother you too much :D :D
everyone can buy what they want :-) with all the pluses and minuses that go with it..
great, one charger for mac and iphone on the road :)
I have it here now, iPhone The charger from charges me just fine. MacBookI'll just replace the cable.
You can never do that on all iPhones 🙂 cancel the port completely and it will only be magsafe 🙂 anyway, most people only use magsafe 🙂 I tell most people not to comment like that 🙂
I hope so, that kind of nonsense Apple inconspicuously. So far, wireless charging doesn't do much for it compared to the competition - the magsafe puck seems to me to be quite a dead end = artificial incompatibility. And data via magsafe doesn't flow either...
Any technically minded person will understand thatoneThe one with the lightning connector is a much better solution. It is more stable and the hole has no "pin" in the middle. Just notice how the one with theonewhich one is close.
A technically minded person knows that lightning is outdated toonewhich has slow charging and even slower data transfer. Moreover, it is nowhere else except the iPhone, which makes it completely unusable.
Exactly. Lightning was just an outdated and slow money laundering machine. Charging was slow, data transfers were at USB 2.0 level and a meter-long cable with Lightning konewhich cost unchristian money.
A technically minded person will be happy for USB-C, and it has been confirmed several times over the years that the "pin" is not a big problem.
It wouldn't be a problem to upgrade lightining the way usb c was upgraded. Hardware - the connection method is definitely better with lightining. Besides, I hate it when officials decide what and how someone should produce.
Oh, and how many phones support standard 3.0 or higher? You have USB C, but that's about it. What about the other one?onec usb A or C cable and then a charger standard QC and PD and you have fast charging this is a solution how thigh only engineers from the EU could come up with
Yes, a technically proficient person vi, ze lightning it is of course better toonewhich USB is nestAble interface and always has been. Arguments like data transfer speed? Nobody, literally nobody, copies anything over cable these days.
Lightning She's an outdated piece of shit, she has no place in any facility anymore.
By 2024 da Apple konewhich way and will be equipped.

When I had a Lumia, I was happy with USB-C. But I still mostly charged wirelessly. Then I had to change platforms for work. I used a Nokia 2 plus for 7 years. Charging the phone while it was lying down was fine, but if I needed to move it around or be connected to a laptop, it was a problem. Inside theonewhich was worn out and kept disconnecting. The thin contact in the middle is the problem. I think it is easier to replace the cable than toonewhich is in the phone. So when it comes to mechanical resistance, Lighting has a lot of advantages over USB-C. But at home I charge wirelessly so Ionewhich will last a while. And then I'll sort it out in the car somehow...
If something happened to the spacer in the middle of theonewhich, I can't really imagine what you're doing with itonewho did it. From my own experience, spring-loaded contacts or latches are the most common. Both are in the case of lightninginside the phone, while USB-C is in a much cheaper cable. Personally, I have already squeezed more juice out of my phone lightningthan Cček (I'm not talking about microUSB, it was a disaster and fortunately it's already obsolete).
thanks for deleting my contributions. I had no idea that writing an opinion was a crime.
I still have to add to the comments regarding data transfer speed and similar talk. Does anyone here drag x giga data from their mobile every day to speed them up???? I would say no...
When those little things start happening on your phoneoneWhat the fuck are you going to curse at again? apple how did it save etc. I don't mind USB C, I have it on macbookbut I don't move it and it stands firmly on the table. But it will bother me when I'm on the phone.
From my own experience, I have to say that I have trouble with my phone or other USB-C device.onewhich never went away. But I've already changed several cables. So that little piece of cake in theonewhich does not seem to be a problem.
Where should I send the account number and the list of products that the EU will buy for me again, because with this regulation they created artificial incompatibility and I will have to replace the accessories for about 20k czk...
What?
