With the release of iPhone 14 and 14 Pro, many expected Apple to drop the ten-year-old lightning port in favor of USB-C. But that didn’t happen. And with the European Commission requiring all smartphones to adopt USB-C by 2024, its made the iPhone’s transition away from lighting appear inevitable. So why is Apple taking so long to do it? Well, their official answer is for user convenience. via YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkWxwjU5mxA

Apple has a reputation of leaving out features and buttons on iPhone that are deemed unnecessary. The original model left out a physical keyboard which was an industry standard at the time, and since then, they’ve removed its headphone jack, and even its home button. But one thing iPhone still has is its silent switch. Something many people don’t use, especially those switching from Android, where silent mode is activated with a software button instead. via YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_4PngbKbx4

In 2010, the unicode consortium approved of a new emoji called Pistol. And companies like Apple added it to their platforms. Most of them created realistic designs for the emoji, modeled after real-life pistols. While Microsoft’s looked more like a ray gun from a science fiction movie. But in iOS 10, Apple was the first to update the emoji. From a real pistol, to a plastic water gun. Other companies like Google and Samsung followed suit, but why was this change made? via YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SBJr3Zfgl8
