Losing The iPhone Lightning Port Democratized The Accessories Market
Forbes argues that Apple's move away from the Lightning port, replaced by USB-C on recent iPhones, has opened up the accessories market. With a universal standard, a wider range of manufacturers can now make chargers, docks and cables for the iPhone, reducing Apple's control over certified accessories and lowering prices and choice for consumers.
Why now: Discussion of the switch to USB-C and its effect on the third-party accessory market is resurfacing as new iPhones ship without Lightning.
