In fairness, Android phone manufacturers were way ahead of the curve on this.

    Here’s what you need to know: nothing. You won’t notice this, because it’ll just make life easier.

      If you bought an iPhone a year ago, you definitely noticed that you now only have to carry 1 cable, and all of your cable and accessories cost less because they don’t have to pay Apple an exorbitant fee to license their archaic and proprietary connector. If you paid extra for the “Pro” model you’ll notice wildly faster transfer speeds over USB. If you bought the base model, fuck you, you’re stuck with USB 2.1 because greed.

        I heard they removed the ability to transfer audio to the AirPods Max through USB-C, when it actually worked with the Lightning model. I have absolutely no idea why they felt the need to completely get rid of wired AirPods Max usage, it felt kinda cool to pair it with an old iPod (most don’t even have Bluetooth. The ones that don’t are: all Classic models, Nano models before the 7th gen, all Shuffle models, all Mini models, and the 1st gen Touch).

      I’m sure they’re pretty pissed about the millions of dollars they won’t be making on shitty proprietary cables that fanboys defended relentlessly
