Apple requires third-party accessory makers to pay a fee to get certified access to select parts and technologies like the Lightning connector. This system is called the Made For iPhone program, and it was thought to be going away thanks to USB-C, but a repeated rumor says otherwise.
In the replies, Shrimp states that Apple will limit data and charging speed for cables connected to iPhone without the MFi certification. It seems this will be allowed, as Apple will be cooperating with the EU mandate to move to USB-C, just providing an obstacle to users.

Honestly, if this is true, whatever. The worst part of USB C is that the quality of the cable is a complete unknown to people at a glance, the only way I can tell my Thunderbolt 4 cable from any other USB C cable is that the TB4 cable has a larger boot around the connector. But even that isnโt a guarantee to itโs quality, data rate, or power transmission. If mfi means that it meets a minimum spec, fine by me. If not though, then Apple can pound sand.
Hey everyone, letโs all be outraged about an unsubstantiated rumor regarding a product that has not even announced or released.
If this is true, would apple even be allowed to do this? I thought the whole point was to standardise the port??
Probably. They just have to allow charging over type C. Never said they canโt use proprietary sauce for faster charging, as long as standard chargers still work
Just buy Anker cables then they arenโt expensive and are MFi certified.

Android starts to get attractive more and more as the years pass by. Even though you dont have years of support for your OS like with Iphones, you can get the newest flagship one year after its release for huge discounts
considering how r-slurred USB-C charging/transfer is these days, I don't blame them but at least they should stick to USB-PD which is USB-C's only saving grace

B-word bye ๐๐๐๐ what's cringe is you stereotyping everyone on the planet who smokes weed. The only person here who's awkward, boring, lame and living in a haze here is you buddy. As someone who smokes weed everyday, I love doing things while smoking weed. Whether it be hiking, yoga, working out, studying or reading a book. On top of all of that, I have my own business and I'm getting a degree in Kinesiology. ๐๐๐ also, getting realizations are fun. Maybe you should smoke some weed one day so you can realize how you're projecting your own cringe personality on the rest of your pothead โfriends.โ
