European Commission and USB-C

On 23 September 2021, European Commission began looking into a plan to make all devices in the European Union such as iPhone to use USB-C chargers.[18][19] Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo claimed that Apple would not come with Lightning connector by 2023.[20][21] At the time of those claims, Apple was thinking about changing from Lightning connector to USB-C because an EU proposal was very likely to become a law.[22] The European Parliament added a new law in October 2022 and launched it in December 2024 as iPhone 16 series released.[23][24] It updated the Radio Equipment Directive to say that all small and medium devices must have USB-C. Apple said it would follow the rules later that month.[25][26] The iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus became the first iPhone to use USB-C.[27]

Making and discontinuation

On 12 September 2023, it was announced that Tata Group made some of the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus in India to be sold around the world on the launch day for the first time.[28][29] On 9 September 2025, the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus stopped selling after Apple talked about the iPhone 17 series.[30][31]
