We’ve known that the iPhone is switching to USB-C for a while now, but there was always a possibility that Apple would stick with Lightning for one more year. Based on the latest leaked images, however, Apple is all-in on USB-C for the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro models, with USB-C parts for the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, and iPhone 15 Pro Max all shown in a leaked image by X user fix Apple.

With the switch to USB-C, nearly all of Apple’s devices will have adopted the new standard, with only AirPods, Mac accessories, and the iPhone SE remaining aside from older iPhones and the 9th-gen iPad.

They will probably introduce some dock to monitor mode that is super limited in functionality and talk about how they just couldn't get it working right with lightning or something.

Honestly, some kind of dock that would turn iOS into iPadOS on a display sounds kinda neat.

Why not just full blown MacOS?

It's Apple we're talking about, I'm being realistic. Plus, that would require two OSes on the device. iPadOS is not really another OS, just iOS for larger devices.

Samsung is doing it with Dex. I don’t think MacOS and iOS are that different anymore. I’m not saying there isn’t work to do, but it’s far from being outside of Apples ability.
