    Lightning is more or less the progenitor to USB-C, so the benefits are the same since you can plug in USB-C either way.

    This also means you can charge your iPad with the same connector as these phones if you have of the models that came with a USB-C charger.

      It is not about which side, but about at which angle I can insert the lightning connector. It is just easier to do it with lightning when you can not see it.

        I don’t find that to be true, and I would be surprised if many people do. But your experience is just as valid.
