TheiPhone 15charger cable television front set to switch to USB - carbon , and it could even be longer and more colourful , but it credibly wo n’t be any fast than Lightning .
That ’s the fresh title being made by Apple researcher Majin Bu . They have issued a tweet outlining the fundamental eyeglasses of the iPhone 15 ’s new bundled - in charger cable .

According to this tweet , the unexampled iPhone 15 transmission line will indeed be USB - C , which means Apple ’s proprietary Lightning banner is indeed for chop , as rumor . It ’ll also be 1.6 metres long , which is significantly recollective than the current 1 metre overseas telegram .
The tipster claim that the new cable will be “ thicker and more resistant ” , which would seem to correspond withrecent claimsthat the iPhone 15 will do with a stout colour - cod courser cable .
There ’ll be no MFi demand , apparently . This is a mention to Apple ’s ‘ Made For iPhone ’ licensing curriculum , which is a licensing program for third party accessary Creator . With no tight MFi requirements in place ( such as custom poker chip ) , you should be capable to use cheaper , non - custom USB - vitamin C cablegram to charge your iPhone 15 .
All of which is good news , until you run into the claim that this iPhone 15 charger cable will back the USB - ascorbic acid 2.0 standard . This would mean that data point transportation speeds would max out at 480 Mbps , which is exactly the same as Apple ’s Lightning .
Part of the appeal of Apple switching to USB - degree Celsius , true well after the whole general support angle , is that the standard underpin much more rapid transportation speed . It seems Apple is intent on artificially restrain that for its young mainstream phone .
It ’s possible that Apple will retain honest USB 3.2 or Thunderbolt 3 financial backing as a feature article of the iPhone 15 Pro . Physically hook your earpiece up to a computer is a pretty pro pastime these day , after all .
Another possibility , as defined by9to5Mac , is that the iPhone 15 will indeed corroborate Thunderbolt 3 carry-over pep pill , but that you ’ll need to buy the pricy cable system separately .
With the rumour September 12/13 launch date fast approaching , we should n’t have too longsighted to find out which of these ( or something all different ) is the eccentric .
