Besides, crApple products work that good with each other only whilst android ones can share a lot and work together.

    db102000, 12 May 2022the only thing I give credit apple for is the processor, bu... moreLol, you listed 2 things Apple is excellent at just because you don't understand it. iPhones have half the RAM on paper compared to Android phones yet run exceptionally well regardless. And iPhone 13's have one of smallest batteries yet they last by far the longest of all high end phones. It's like you're just obsessed with big numbers on paper without actually understanding them. Like basically everyone here on GSMArena praising Android phones and their "specs".

            sohail shafayat, 12 May 2022you buy an iPhone means you buy 5-10 years old techthe only thing I give credit apple for is the processor, but everything else, screen resolution battery ram is all crap compared to android

              I don't get why this is a big deal, aren't we supposed to hate cables and use wireless charging? and nobody backs up their data using cables it is all in the cloud

              And don't expect 120W charging because of that, remember this is Apple

                      If it doesn't fold like a clamshell, I don't care. But that's nice. Only took Apple over 7 years. And they were one of the first to introduce USB-C on their laptops back in 2015. Then on iPads a few years later.

Not much to gain from going even smaller. They tried it and saw that there was not a big market for it.

                            Anonymous, 12 May 2022Yes, there will be an iPhone 15 released one year after the... moreAmen to that.

                              finally!!!! after 2 decades in Android phones Apple paid attention to customers and goverments...now adding USB-C ports to iPhone will be a good excuse to increase the MSRP!!!!!!

                                Tigolebitties, 12 May 2022The vanilla version itself is already small compared to sma... morei thought its gotta be the battery size...

                                  some flagship android always used type-c for fast charging or fast transfer. which iphone still uses lightning may alot people boring and ineffective lol, unless modificated iphone or new iphone for upcoming future may uses type-c well.

                                  remember iphone 8 rumored has type-c port in back 2017?

                                    you have to suffer, 12 May 2022nooo they dropped the mini?? why thoughThe vanilla version itself is already small compared to smartphone nowadays and u can use it with one hand. I suppose there's no use in making the smaller version when the normal one is already small 🤷

                                      Took years

                                        you have to suffer, 12 May 2022also rip mfi certification....That just what you think ... But when Apple ready to switch, that means they already found other ways ..

                                        For example they could use proprietary chips like how Oppo/Oneplus or Huawei use for fast charging.. Apple could do that and take it to another level as non mfi types C probably won't be recognised by their devices.

                                        OR they could just leave type C as optional for slow charge and fully move to wireless charging for fast charge technology.
