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.

Things got better as manufacturers now implement the standard correctly.

Nowadays you can plug any device to any charger and the worse that can happen is your device not charging fast enough (sometimes actually discharging).

So if you get a powerful enough charger, you'll be able to charge all your devices.

And yes, you can also do video out and for that you need to check the compatibility of your devices but it's still not that bad, compared to the days where you could fry a device by using the wrong charger.
