It'll be even better because half the cables will all have different standards and won't interoperate, because Type-C is an utter disaster thanks to the maroons at the USB-IF.

I mean aside from the USB-C it’s the same phone we’ve been seeing for 3 years. Boring
It is a blurry picture........definitely real!!!! 
If real though, it must be a prototype, like I said in the previous leak with brushed aluminum, doubt this has the final coating applied.

Same although I'm not looking forward to replacing all my lightning cables.
I currently have products that use micro usb, lightning and usb c with either usb a or c on the brick or power source end.
I dont know if calling Elon, Enron was a typo or on purpose but either way its a great comparison. Same house of cards just a different company.
I was working on a trading desk when the news of Enron hit and boy was it a wild few days.
I would love for a bigger dynamic island seated in the perfect center of the screen. I would think Apple is super genius for that kind of innovative design. I would quickly forget about it when watching a video, gaming or browsing. Whatever clever use by a handful of developers after 5 years will be amazing!
Go on do your worst, show us the camera tumour
Wow! It looks... I don't know what to say. It looks...exactly like it has looked for the last 6 years. 👏👏👏
It was most definitely not a typo. I remember the Enron fiasco well and the vibes between it and Twitter 2.0 are scary real.
Unpopular opinion: Lightning is a better connector physically than USB-C. Sure... I know why people want USB-C on an iPhone. (Standardization, faster transfer speeds, charging...etc.) But from a durability standpoint... I think Lightning is better.
Billions of cables and adapters going to the landfill. "Good for the planet" - Apple
Looks like … an iPhone
USB-C and periscope lens will make me get the 15ProMax…

Maybe make it "- EU bureaucrats" and then Apple adopting the line for PR
Can we tie them all together and climb to Apple Heaven?
Or, you know, keep using them with our many existing lightning devices.
I see a cat in there. That means that: 1) I am obliged to like. 2) It genuinely comes from Asia.
I would trade in each of my lightning cables in for $5 off usb-c to usb-c cables
At Newark's new airport terminal the other day, there was already a universal charging standard that powered my iPhone, my neighbour's Android phone, and my AirPods. Qi is an existing universal charging standard and the newer spec charges at or above the USB-C fast charging speed.

Honestly all the lust for a port thats much more prone to failure than the lighting is a true mystery.
Tell that to my iPad Pro 10.5" with a broken Lightning port that I have to charge painfully slowly through its smart connector. And I need to replace the battery, but I'm guessing Apple won't do that because of the broken Lightning port.
