USB-C will make sense forever now. Nobody will develop something else. That's not necessarily a bad thing, it is what it is.

USB-C might very well be the last wired connection standard, but I expect a port free iPhone within 10 years that charges via induction and has some way to do some data transfer by that as well.

  • Right, and they might switch the law to allow that at some point.

    • The EU already allows for a port free iPhone. Just that if they provide a port, it has to be USB-C. But the tech and acceptance isn't really there yet for such a product, but I'm pretty sure it will come eventually.
