“Obviously, we’ll have to comply.”
Joswiak refused to answer whether the company would include the connector on phones sold outside the EU.
But he made it abundantly clear that Apple isn’t happy about being legally coerced into making the switch. Before acknowledging that the company must comply with the law, Joswiak went into a long explanation about how Apple has historically preferred to go its own way and trust its engineers rather than be forced into adopting hardware standards by lawmakers.
He also suggested that charging bricks with detachable cables have mostly solved the issue of standardization and claimed that switching the iPhone from Lightning to USB-C would cause lots of e-waste. Still, it’s telling what didn’t come up: a portless iPhone that relies solely on wireless charging, something that would. Joswiak didn’t say that the company is weighing its options or mention discussing ways to avoid putting a USB-C port on the iPhone. Instead, we got a resigned, slightly winding answer that led to what seems like an inevitable conclusion: USB-C is the future port for connecting to and charging your iPhone.
