The rumors surrounding the iPhone 12 have almost been exhausted. From the design, features and price to the release date. It's about time that the iPhone 2021 came into focus, right?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The reports surrounding the iPhone 12 have basically already revealed the entire device. Now all that is missing is the final confirmation from Cupertino. But it will be a few months before that happens. A well-known Twitter account called @choco_bit<\/span><\/a> has spoken out again. This anonymous leaker is also known for having correct information about upcoming Apple products. Now he has explained in a new tweet that the iPhone 12 will not be released with USB-C but with a Lightning port. This confirms previous reports that the well-known Lightning connector will be with us for another year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The idea of the Smart Connector is not new<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

However, the leaker later stated that the 2021 iPhone will not use Lightning or USB-C, but will be equipped with a Smart Connector. We have already read several reports that the Lightning port will be omitted in the 2021 iPhone. The idea of the Smart Connector is not new either - it has existed since the iPhone 8. Accordingly, his latest Twitter post can be seen as unofficial confirmation of earlier rumors. Whether he will be right remains to be seen, of course. So far, he has been able to convince with his posts, as they have mostly proven to be correct. (Photo by hadrian \/ Bigstockphoto)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
