TL;DR Summary

Apple's Lightning connector, introduced in 2012, was praised for its small size and reversible design, making it easier to use than its predecessor, the 30-pin Dock Connector. However, with a new law in the European Union mandating the use of USB-C for physical charging, Apple is expected to remove the Lightning connector from future iPhones. While Apple played a role in developing the USB-C standard and has already adopted it for other devices, the switch will still be complicated for iPhone users who will need to replace cables or use dongles. Despite the challenges, the move to USB-C will bring universal compatibility and the potential for wireless charging, which could be the next step in eliminating the need for physical ports altogether.
