The USB-C to Lightning Adapter works with iPhone or iPad models that have a USB-C connector. Use this single adapter to connect your iPhone or iPad with USB-C to a Lightning accessory for charging, data, and audio.

USB-C is just faster and more reliable too. It transmits more data and power across a broader range of devices than Lightning. Lightning could only transmit 480 Mbps, while USB-C can go to 40 Gbps — almost 85 times faster data transfer. Lightning could only carry a maximum of 20W, while USB-C can handle 240W.

Lightning and USB-C cables provide reliable power and connectivity options for various devices. USB-C offers higher power delivery, faster data transfer speeds, and broader compatibility, while Lightning is tailored for Apple devices, with exclusive compatibility and MFi certification.

Why is this happening now? Last year, the European Union announced a mandate requiring all smartphone makers to adopt USB-C as a common charging connector by 2024. In theory, this will allow consumers to buy fewer power cables, which, regulators say, could cut down on environmental waste.

The Lightning port on the iPhone is limited to USB 2.0 speeds. Flagship Android smartphones, on the other hand, have USB-C ports capable of USB 3.0 speeds. USB-C also supports the latest USB4 standard, which can be found on the iPad Pro.
