Apple may include a USB-C charger and a Lightning cable in the box with the new iPhones

Many rumors have run about the type of connector used by Apple to equip its new iPhones, now that the iPad Pro and its range of MacBook use USB-C. We are finally starting to get a better idea of ​​what this reality might look like in September. According to the Japanese blog Mac Otakara, the new iPhone models, which are said to be three since the release of last year, may not contain USB-C ports, as we have heard. However, they may come with a faster 18W USB-C charger and a Lightning to USB-C cable.

That would make a lot of sense. Apple may not be ready to give up Lightning yet, but it looks like the company might try to make life a little easier for iOS users. Why has Apple always offered new smartphones with the same 5W cube charger that it has been for years, despite the design of its handsets from the iPhone 8 with fast charging capabilities?

Last year's redesign, iPad Pro, brought USB-C to Apple's range of tablets, with a faster 18W charger. At the moment, to take advantage of this charger with your iPhone, you need to spend around $ 50 in a 18W charger and a Lightning to USB-C adapter, as indicated by MacRumeurs. However, delivering this configuration to the box is a smart way to load new iPhones faster while retaining the Lightning port for easier transition in the future. Plus, it means you can finally plug your phone into your Mac laptop without buying a new cable.
