  • There will need to be an Apple USB-C iPhone by December 28, 2024.
  • This is the formal date the EU has declared for all new devices to have USB-C.
  • We will likely see a USB-C iPhone well before that date, though.

Earlier this year, the EU officially agreed upon a law that requires manufacturers to use a common charger solution for all applicable products. This set the wheels in motion for what we’ve always wanted: an iPhone that doesn’t have a Lightning port.

Today, the EU finally set a specific date for the enforcement of this law: December 28, 2024 (via The Verge). Any device created after that date that wants to sell to Europe will need to use the USB-C standard. The days of the Apple USB-C iPhone are upon us!
