The reason why Apple wants to launch an iPhone without a charging port

According to PhoneArena , rumors about an iPhone without a charging port have been circulating in the tech world for a long time and are now being fanned again as the arrival of the iPhone 17 Air gets closer. Although the possibility of this device being launched this year is not high, the prospect of an iPhone completely without a charging port is no longer too far-fetched. However, behind this breakthrough, are there any business calculations of Apple?

Apple has big plans for iPhone without charging port

iPhone without charging port: Potential gold mine from exclusive MagSafe charging

With the iPhone without a charging port, MagSafe will become the only charging method. It's a proprietary Apple standard, and like the Lightning port before it, it could be a huge moneymaker for the company. While MagSafe has its advantages, especially the convenience of using it in cars, for most users, wired charging is still the best option.

Removing the charging port also means users will have to pay more for Apple’s MagSafe charger, which is not cheap. Furthermore, relying on a proprietary charging standard will limit users’ accessory choices, forcing them to buy expensive products from Apple or certified manufacturers.

Many people have argued that removing the charging port is an 'anti-user' move by Apple. It doesn't offer any practical functional benefits, other than making the iPhone a little thinner. Apple has done the same thing in the past with the 3.5mm headphone jack, and the result was no significant improvement in battery life or features for users.

For now, the portless iPhone remains a rumor. But if Apple does pursue the idea, it raises a number of questions about the company’s business strategy. Is it a genuine technological breakthrough, or just a ploy to increase profits?
