Apple Unveils the iPhone 15

This week, at Apple’s September keynote event, the iPhone 15 was unveiled along with some other major updates.

The new iPhone will come with several upgrades including a brighter screen, new camera system and a USB-C port. The iPhone 15 Pro is the lightest Pro model yet with a new A17 Pro chip and a titanium chassis.

The upgrade to the USB-C port has been highly anticipated by Apple users. “Now Apple customers can use the same USB-C chargers to power their iPhones, iPads and Mac computers — no more scrambling to find the right charger for each device. Apple said a dedicated USB-C controller will allow for transfer speeds of up to 20 times faster than with USB-2 technology for the iPhone 15 Pro,” CNN reported.

As a way for users to repurpose their old chargers, Apple will be selling a $29 USB-C Lightning adapter to let people connect their existing Lightning chargers and cables to a USB C-enabled iPhone or iPad.

Also, iPhone users will be able to recycle their old Lightning chargers in-store as part of its recycling program.
