The newly launched iPhone 16e features a USB-C port, officially marking the complete transition from the Lightning port in iPhone models.
The iPhone 16e has arrived and is a true upgrade over its predecessor, the iPhone SE, not only in terms of the name but design and hardware as well. However, the launch of the iPhone 16e also marked the end of lightning ports in iPhone models. This means that Apple no longer sells new iPhones with Lightning ports, as all officially available iPhones now feature a USB-C port.
The debut of the iPhone 16e also saw Apple discontinuing three iPhones—the iPhone 14, the iPhone 14 Plus, and the iPhone SE.
