The iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus are upcoming smartphones that will be designed and marketed by Apple. Apple will hold their special event on September 10, 2024, with pre-orders occurring on September 13, and will be released on September 20, 2024 operating with iOS 18.[1]
History
[edit]The Radio Equipment Directive, which requires that all electronic devices in the European Union use USB-C charging was passed into law in 2023. Apple confirmed it would comply with the regulations, and in September of that year revealed that the iPhone 15 would have a USB-C port instead of a lightning port.[2] The iPhone 16 will also be required to use USB-C under EU law. Additionally, India passed a similar USB-C mandate which will go into effect in March 2025, also affecting the type of charging used for the iPhone 16.[3]
