Please keep lightning port and add USB-C on new iPhones

Hello, if have been using apple’s lightning port and cables for many years now without any problem. I understand that due to EU regulations Apple is forced to go to USB-C what is for mobile device inferior to lightning. So please keep lightning in the middle of the bottom of the iPhone and add a USB-C.


by doing so we can:

  • Keep the use of all our cables.
  • Keep all the dock devices and other accessories working.
  • have a faster port for large file transfer/ faster charging.
  • be compliant with the EU rule.
  • don’t create a cable / dock waste.
  • reduce the risk of broken iPhones because the USB-C breaking internally because of the inferior design of USB-C for mobile devices.


Apple this would be using the best of booth world’s so please take this into consideration.


I put this just in this community but maybe there is a product development ID were it can be send to. Please advice.


Regards,

Guido Verlaat
