The European Union's new charging standard, enforcing USB-C as the common charging solution, signifies a major shift aimed at reducing e-waste and market fragmentation.
Devices like the iPhone SE and iPhone 14 series, which use Apple's proprietary Lightning charging port, are no longer available for sale in key EU markets.
Mandating USB-C for a wide range of devices by December 28, 2024, is part of the EU's strategy to ensure compatibility and simplify user experience.
The introduction of this directive will not only help in diminishing electronic waste but also improve consumer awareness through better product labeling related to power requirements.
