In addition to the iPhone still insisting on using the
closed Lightning interface, most mobile phones have now switched to the USBC
interface. The European Union is pushing for the unification of the USBC
interface. The European Commission has passed relevant resolutions before, and
now the European Parliament has also approved this bill. , appleIt is also
forced to use the USBC interface.
The original intention of the EU to force the promotion of
the USBC interface is for environmental protection. The unified interface of
mobile phones and chargers can be reused, reducing waste, and saving users
about 250 million euros each year.
According to the resolution passed by the EU, they will
force the promotion of the USBC interface from 2024. within that time, Apple would abide by this regulation in the European market. Of the 241 million mobile
phones sold by Apple last year, the EU market sold about 56 million. The impact
is not small.
Although Apple has always been opposed to mandatory
standards, in reality, the impact of this bill on Apple may not be so great,
because starting with the iPhone 15 series in 2023, it is almost a certainty
for Apple to replace the USBC interface, and it will also improve data
transmission and charging speed.
