The European Union has given phone manufacturers a deadline of 28 December 2024 to adopt a common charging cable. Companies like Apple, whose iPhones use an Apple-made charger, will not be able to sell new devices in the EU after the date unless they use a universal cable. Apple is the biggest manufacturer to use a customised charging port which is exclusive to some of its products. Its iPhone series uses its own Lightning connector, will this create more brexit tensions ?
