You’re buying the iPhone 15, but don’t throw away your old Lightning cables
The iPhone 15 will be unveiled on September 12th, and that's when Apple will finally explain its decision to bring USB-C connectivity to the iPhone. It'll also explain which iPhone 15 models can support Thunderbolt 4 transfer speeds over USB-C, if any, and why.
Three days after that, you'll preorder your iPhone 15 of choice and then receive it at your home on September 22nd. The iPhone 15's release date hasn't been confirmed, but we already know how Apple operates. The new iPhones hit stores and homes the second Friday after the keynote. By Saturday, September 23rd, you'll be ready to ditch all your Lightning cables now that your shiny new phone has a USB-C port.
But, whatever you do, don't get rid of the Lightning cables. You'll still need them for various Apple products that have not switched to USB-C. Also, you can turn them into USB-C chargers that can power the iPhone 15.
