Why is USB‑C to Lightning Cable included with iphone 12 Pro Max?
I feel dumb, missing what this is for as the phone has a usb-c connector, not a lightning.

The connector on the iPhone 12 Pro (and Pro Max), LurkingTom, is Lightning, not USB-C.

Was dumb. Somehow I got the impression that the new pros were going with USB-C ... I am charging with a MagSafe cable ... and on a too quick glance, the connector at the bottom looked like USB-C. That’s my dumb post for the decade...
No problem, LurkingTom.
We’re all human. We all make mistakes.
I suspected that you probably just got “fooled” by the similarity of the receptacle hole.
I was actually a bit surprised when I saw that Apple was still using Lightning on these new phones.
I’m looking forward to the transition to USB-C, but the USB-C socket does take up more space that the Lightning socket.
It is to connect to a power adapter.
