    Apple swapped MacBooks to USB C in 2015

    2018 was first USB C iPad.

    Unless your partner is using an iPhone 4s, they have a lightning port. Not sure why you’re saying they’re different.

    Again. Not every generation.

      “Spirit” was the operative word.

      Your data isn’t comprehensive: Intel MB Air used MagSafe until 2017, but not same MagSafe as currently offered.

      And, I meant that, among iOS devices, iPads did not switch to USB-C at same time phones did.

      From cgpt, through 2021:

      iPhone and iPad models did not make the shift to USB-C at the same time. As of my last update in September 2021, iPads started transitioning to USB-C with the iPad Pro in 2018. Other iPad models like the iPad Air followed suit, adopting USB-C in 2020.

      iPhones, on the other hand, have stuck with the proprietary Lightning connector for charging and data transfer. As of 2021, no iPhone models had transitioned to USB-C, although the topic has been a subject of speculation and rumors.
