I'm so happy iPhone is now USB C. My partner and I have had their mother on road trips with us so we've had to have a mix of USB C and lightning cords. It'll be nice to not have to look at the end of the cable to see which Belkin white cable it is

I wish that USB-C would have been just like a bigger lightning port to handle usb 3 and higher. I like the form factor of lightning better than C.

It’s a more robust connector having the pins protected in the port than having a weak little piece sticking out in the middle. I’ve had a few USB-C ports break on me on the device because they cheaped out. My galaxy S9, my Pixel 4, and my pixel buds all had the port on the phone get wonky and wouldn’t charge from any cable.
