USB-C offers faster charging and data transfer, a massive leap from Lightning.

Apple aims to stay ahead in ecosystem compatibility; USB-C is compatible with both iPads and Macs.

iPhone users demanded convenience; no more juggling Lightning and USB-C cables.

Tech influencers and developers have long criticized Lightning as outdated and limiting.

USB-C enables more powerful accessories, such as high-resolution displays and professional-level gear.

This shift isn't just technical; it marks a bold new chapter in Apple's future.
