Apple’s move to USB-C already-present in all products than ever before, this is unlike a change in direction for the company which had always used proprietary connectors rather than accepted industry standards. This change highlights the multiple determinants that contributed to the main systems’ shift to the standard of USB-C power delivery.
The first feature is the USB-C interface allows flexibility and the convenience. On the other hand, apple has developed a proprietary charging technology called Lightning connector, whilst USB-C enjoys a universal acceptance among almost all types of devices, including smartphones, laptops, tablets, and peripherals. This interoperability makes the user experience simpler through the elimination of multiple chargers, which makes charging one gadget, a breeze when multiple devices are connected.
What’s more is that USB-C’s possibililties beat Lighting’s. To complement forthcoming lager capacity of Apple devices, the connection type USB-C with faster data transfer speeds, more power delivery, and support for video output is the future-proof solution. This responds to the Apple brand motto which states, it leads as an innovative tech company.
The important factor also is the USB-C trend in the industry does not this. Some of these other devises already have USB-C as a standard connector like the Android smart phones, the PC computer and other accessories as well. Through adopting USB-C, therefore Apple enables third party devices connectivity. This will lead to the development of a more well-linked ecosystem.
Besides, environmental effect performed one part of role in Apple preferring as well. With a single standard USB-C connector, it is possible to say goodbye to any obsolete of types and adaptors, which can be considered as electronic waste. This goes along with Apple’s sustainability initiatives and represents an ideal evidence of its eco-friendly behaviour.
Finally, Apple transition to USB-C is a strategic step, which Apple commits the USB-IF and other competitors to use a standardized interface, have the advantage inusers’ daily life, and stay competitive for future. Through the use of this approach Apple satisfies the trends of universal acceptance associated with the industry. Moreover, Apple customers benefit from higher performance as well as environmentally friendliness since they have the ability to use the connector developed by another manufacturer.
