Apple's lightning port is basically a USB C port where switched the port positions. Cable connector port is put in the iPhone and the phone connector is put on the cable .
They call this innovation.

The biggest failure of 3GPP was non standardization of charger. So much of e-waste of chargers are created in last 25 years that you can make a mount everest with them. When 3gpp can define bit level standards failure to define the charging port was pure negligence. It is a crime to create so much e-waste. I remember airport charging stations with seperate charger for each type of phone....any way going forward correction done. Thanks. Let apple go to hell. They're the once who modified software to reduce battery life of old MAC IPHONE etc...

What is to stop an Apple device having TWO connectors? One Lightning, and one USB-C.
The USB doesn't even need to support data transfer, just charging.

Apparently apple is right
If apple will start providing convenient solutions to their customers then they will start losing extra revenues which they get from connectors, cables accessories etc.
Such revenue helps them become billionaires and we all know iron man and batman both are billionaires and some of the greatest innovators in this world.
So they are right.

Brands are with long heritage like Apple have hit and miss night mode, so sometimes you get right exposure and good pictures, sometimes it just doesn't expose much leading to dark images. IPhone video is all dark in night.
Best camera phones are flagships from Huawei, Mi and Vivo.
Confirmed by DxOMark which tests with 1500 plus images.
Long heritage brands are struggling to keep up.

It can do 4K60 on both Ultrawide and main camera.
The telephoto is not as good as the S21 Ultra or Mi 11 Ultra, I agree but still better than 3x crap from other periscope phones.

Phone looks good only on spec sheets, like all Chinese phones btw. Not hating on the Chinese but their products aren't as mature as those brands with longer heritage.

[deleted post]Mi 11 Ultra or Vivo X70 pro+ is a very good deal for premium flagship.
You can get it in EU below €1000.
Budget flagship... Where do I even start?
So many options from Poco F3, Realme GT Neo 2, Realme GT Master Explorer Edition, OnePlus 9RT, OnePlus 9, etc.
If you can find the Lenovo Pad pro, go for it as you get Oled screen, better stylus support, better software optimization for tablet (as of now) compared to Mi Pad 5 pro.

Isn’t it trye that Apple is one of the pioneers of USB-C port design and standard?! If so why aren’t they adopting that port on phone when its on all MacBooks and iPads now. I wonder what could be the reason.
