Finally. Every time I go on a trip and pack a USB-C charger for my iPad, my laptop, my headphones, and have to bring an additional lightning one just for my phone drives me (slightly) crazy.

Ok. Now I just need to replace my expensive headphones when those come out, and I’ll be free of lightening. I’m guess it won’t be for a while, as ok don’t like replacing expensive things with minor updates.
I am probably in the minority that just does not care. I can’t remember the last time I plugged my phone into something.
Good for all of you that do, but this is a feature I just don’t care about.
Am I the only one who still has nothing using USB-C?
I have a single USB-C cable for my laptop display and that’s really it. Charging is still done via barrel plug. Headphones/phone/iPad are lightning, watch is it’s own thing and all my pc peripherals still use micro-b. I seem to have more devices using usb-A than usb-C.
I’ll probably end up sticking with my 14 because lightning is less of a hassle than switching all my cords and not being able to charge things I need.
I just bought a portable fan for my tent that charges via USB-C. Almost everything is on it now (headphones, earbuds, battery bank, laptop, GoPro, drone…) except my iPhone and an old, mini keyboard/touchpad.
Yup, you're the only one. I've been on USB-C for five years now. Just gotta replace my cannabis vape, and I'll be free of Micro-USB for good. Even a good portion of my PC peripherals use USB-C now. I'd ditch USB-A entirely if I could but unfortunately my motherboard only has 4 C poets.
