UGREEN USB-C To Lightning PD Charging Cable 2022 REVIEW — MacSources
Charging cable provides optimized power for your iPhone and AirPods Pro
With the recent European Union mandate, producers of mobile electronic devices must provide a USB-C charging port on all devices by the fall of 2024. As more tech moves to the USB-C standard, I expect most global producers will transition away from non-USB-C options.
Thus, it will likely cost more for Apple to maintain lightning charging in some regions while others move to USB-C. Since my MacBook Pro, iPad Pro, and daughter’s iPad mini generation 5 already utilize USB-C, Apple will likely release USB-C-powered AirPods Pro generation 2, AirPods Max generation 2, and various iPhone models.
Until a single standard is adopted, we can either carry multiple charging bricks/cables, USB hubs, or choose a single style of charging brick with dongles/adapters. The UGREEN USB-C to Lightning PD Fast Charging Cable arrived in a 3 3/16 inches wide by 6 3/4 inches tall by 11/16 inches thick retail package.
