Didn’t Apple throw around the possibility of usb-c iPhones for Europe and Lightning ones for everywhere else? It seems like they gain enough from the proprietary cables to make it worth.
Next iPhone is pretty solidly confirmed to be USB-C, barring something drastic, which would spell the end for lightning, unless I’m forgetting something.
From what I saw they confirmed there will be iPhones with usb-c, but not explicitly that all of them would. Though they also didn’t mention that anymore after the initial law announcement, so it might’ve just been an hypothesis that got scrapped along the way. We’ll see I guess, I’m in Europe so it doesn’t really matter either way to me.
