„Apple’s Next iPhone Will Have a Curved Screen“

So far, all iPhones have used liquid-crystal displays, long the standard for mobile devices and televisions. People familiar with Apple’s plans said its release this year would include two models with the traditional LCDs and a third one with the OLED screen. They said Apple would introduce other updates including a USB-C port for the power cord and other peripheral devices instead of the company’s original Lightning connector. The models would also do away with a physical home button, they said. Those updates would give the iPhone features already available on other smartphones. Takashi Mochizuki | WSJ.com

Wenn das nächste iPhone mit USB-C kommt, sehen wir diesen Anschluss (mindestens) schon vorher im 10.5” iPad Pro. Wenn das nächste iPad Pro mit USB-C kommt, müssten auch der Apple Pencil und die Apple AirPods neue Stecker bekommen. Mir fallen aber nicht genügend Vorteile ein, die USB-C in einem (einzigen?) iPhone-Modell bereits in diesem Jahr rechtfertigen würde.
