The EU recently mandated USB-C for all phones by 2024 and besides it being a sigh of relief for many, it has certainly raised the question of what will Apple do. And, Apple has the answer. In a recent interview with the Wall Street Journal, the Cupertino tech major has confirmed that it will adopt the USB-C standard for charging.
Apple’s Greg Joswiak told Wall Street Journal‘s Joanna Stern that Apple will comply with the new EU law as it has “no other choice.“ While the company will finally say yes to USB-C, it doesn’t appear to be a happy choice. It was made clear that Apple isn’t entirely in favor of the decision to adopt USB-C.
If you still don’t know about the EU law, it requires all OEMs to make USB Type-C a standard for all new mobile phones, tablets, digital cameras, headphones, and more by 2024. The law was recently made official after being debated for years.
