Recently, renowned analyst Guo Mingyi from Tianfeng International stated on foreign social media platforms that his latest survey shows that the new iPhone in the second half of 2023 will abandon the Lightning port and switch to the USB C port. This means that the iPhone 15 series is likely to use USB C, and if this news is true, then this year's iPhone 14 series seems to be out of fashion. Today, the vast number of fruit fans will follow the footsteps of Minmei's unlimited sharing to see the specific exposure together!

According to Guo Minghui, an analyst at Tianfeng International, Apple will change the Lightning interface to a type-c interface in 2023, and the first phone to be equipped with a C-port is likely to be the iPhone 15. After switching to the Type C interface, the transmission speed and charging speed of Apple phones may be significantly improved.

Mingmei Infinite has learned that there have been rumors about Apple's iPhone switching to USB C interface for a long time, but multiple sources have reported that the iPhone 14 series, which will be released this year, will still use the Lightning interface. The European Union has been promoting the adoption of USB C interface for Apple phones, but Apple has previously opposed the EU's plan to require the use of universal chargers. Of course, this law is not only targeted at Apple. The EU hopes that all consumer electronics manufacturers selling devices in Europe must ensure that their products use the USB C interface, except for those that are too small to fit the type-C interface.

The European Union stated that this move will reduce electronic waste, address product sustainability, and make the use of different devices more convenient, which coincides with Apple's long-standing environmental philosophy and is more convenient for users.

Also, among the people, there have always been "great gods" who have changed iPhone magic to USB C interface. Last year, Ken Pillonel, a student majoring in robotics engineering, successfully modified the Apple iPhone X with a USB C interface.

In addition, it is reported that the main reason why Apple has persisted in not replacing the Lightning lightning interface for 10 years is due to concerns that USB C will damage the current MFi accessory system, and the waterproof specifications of USB C products are relatively low.

However, although the Lightning interface is highly praised by the public, its speed still remains at the USB 2.0 level, and its fast charging performance is also weak.

On the contrary, a large number of products such as MacBooks and iPads have switched to USB C and support Thunderbolt 3 and even Thunderbolt 4, which not only have extremely high transmission rates but also are compatible with fast charging and DP signal video output.

However, in the global trend of promoting interface uniformity, coupled with the display of Lightning's lightning interface itself transmitting data, Apple may indeed compromise on the iPhone 15.

In addition, screen expert Ross Young also revealed this week that the entire iPhone 15 series will feature a perforated screen in the form of pills or exclamation points.

Young shared a roadmap on foreign social media platforms, indicating that both the standard and Pro models of the iPhone 15 will adopt an exclamation mark hole digging screen design, which refers to the pill shaped hole digging of the Face ID sensor and the hole digging of the front camera. In contrast, only the iPhone 14 Pro model is expected to switch to an exclamation mark hole screen this year, while the standard iPhone 14 model is expected to maintain the same bangs screen as the iPhone 13 model.

Young believes that Apple's ultimate goal is to completely move the Face ID sensor and front camera below the display screen. If the development is successful, he expects this transformation to begin with the off screen Face ID of the 2024 iPhone 16 Pro model, followed by the off screen Face ID and off screen front camera of the 2026 iPhone 18 Pro model.

Young stated that compared to the iPhone 13 Pro model, the pill and hole design will result in a slightly larger screen size for the iPhone 14 Pro model.

In addition, today's Minmei Infinite is also worth mentioning that there has been a lot of exposure information about the iPhone 14 series recently. The new regular model released this year still uses bangs design, and does not upgrade the A16 processor. The rear is still 12 million pixels, and the toothpaste squeezing is obvious. Friends who have already purchased iPhone 13 can consider waiting for another year to exchange for iPhone 15.

Finally, based on Guo Mingming's previous revelations, its main source of information is the Apple supply chain, which has certain reference value. But generally speaking, the longer his prediction time, the lower his certainty, so I think he still holds a cautious attitude towards this leaked news.

On the other hand, in recent years, the European Union has continued to push for new legislation that forces Apple to use the USB C interface on iPhones, iPads, and AirPods sold in Europe. Once the legislation is successful, it is possible that Apple will indeed convert all iPhones around the world to USB-C interfaces. There is also another possibility that it will be a European exclusive version of the iPhone that uses the USB-C interface.

Of course, this is just one of the analyst's words. The official information has not been released yet. Friends who are interested in the new machine can continue to follow up on Minmei Infinite's follow-up reports.

Most of Guangjiayuan Electronics' main raw materials are imported, and all purchased materials comply with RoHS environmental standards. It has high-speed stamping and precision injection molding equipment and professional talents in product technology development, providing strong guarantees for product assembly and quality control.
