What? You like slow charging but wireless charging is too slow 🤔 ...and you charge "overnight" 🙃 I charge my 14 Pro Max on a Nomad wireless charger overnight. The Ultra should be port-less
Look at the USB-C port! Only Apple could come up with a port that looks like that. They may be late on the tech but when they implement it, it's way better than everyone else.
Ultra should be port-less. Let the 'porties' get a Pro or regular iPhone
Latency is a big factor for me. Wireless CarPlay lag is no fun.
It’ll also be the most advanced USB-C port on an iPhone ever!
Shoot...
I prefer lightning because I have seen too many USB C ports break on MacBooks, iPads, and Androids.
I bet Apple will be shamed for having this port on their phones on TikTok and people will say that the iPhone port is no longer durable.

Could the controller do Thunderbolt?
Seem like Apple would be into it since many of their other devices have Thunderbolt and they pretty much are the biggest champion of Thunderbolt.
It's great you're not decision maker.
I can't remember last time I used wireless charger. Cable is faster and more efficient. It would be dumb to remove the port.

Sorry for a little contradiction there. I prefer slow charging that doesn’t 🔥overheat my iPhone. Wireless charging is slow and overheats the back of the iPhone. I prefer charging overnight with a classic 5W Charger. 🔋 Optimized charging kicks in very nicely by mid-night. By the time I wake up, my iPhone is nicely charged and cold. It’s a pure satisfaction!
Maybe by the time Apple announces iPhone 15. The AirPower will be out. 🙏🏻
Apple Still Working on AirPower-Like Charger, Also Long-Range Wireless Charging and Reverse Charging
Apple is still working on a future wireless charger that would function similarly to the now-abandoned AirPower, according to Bloomberg's Mark...

Not to mention you can’t currently restore an iPhone without a data port.
Love that little 5w charger
Im planning on getting a USB-A to USB-C cable and continue using that little brick overnight with my iPhone 15 Ultra.
Would love for Apple to release a 5W USB-C charging brick as well.
How is the presence of the port that you don’t have to look at affecting your use of iPhone?
Form that perspective, it would actually be more courageous for them to stay with Lightning. 😂
It's still way too slow for my liking. MagSafe is fine if you're going to charge it overnight or not being busy. At times tho, I need a swift 10 mins charging before the next meeting, and MagSafe is often disappoints. So a reliable wired charging is still needed. Not it's even better with Lightning port being EOLed.
it would be dope to get official 45W charging speeds out of the next iPhone, just for those situations you described (although I would have real trouble draining the battery of my 1.5 year old 13 Pro Max in a day still)
I am assuming iPhone Ultra, like Watch Ultra, would be rugged. This would mean better waterproofing and more resistance to the elements. A port would be a source for leakage.
You can put the Apple MagSafe battery pack on it. I have the battery pack. It also charges AirPods Pro 2.
This is great for USB C with other Apple devices I have. But the USB C port is a poor design that center chip could break and I have seen quite a few crimped USB C cables ends. Lighting came first. Apple's design is much better.

Wait! Is it possible to charge your USB-C iPhone using a 5W charger? How do you connect this to a 5W charger? What else am I missing here??

It does not take all night to charge the phone. In the morning it is cold.Sorry for a little contradiction there. I prefer slow charging that doesn’t 🔥overheat my iPhone.

That is kinda hot. Haven’t seen a port up close and personal like that in a while….
