2019 iPhone Models To Make A Move To USB-C, Reportedly, While Apple Works On New iPod

Although the rumors released by the supply chain blog Macotakara are not always right, there is some truth in them. Now, according to the before-mentioned portal, Apple works on a new iPod, and the 2019 iPhone models (iPhone 11 series) would finally make a move to USB-C. As this information is not coming from either official or reliable channels, we should take these new rumors with a grain of salt.

Reportedly, Apple might be working on a revised version of iPod Touch, even though, in recent years, iPhone smartphones became the favorite music player for Apple’s fans. However, the Cupertino-based tech giant could release a revamped iPod touch in 2019. Nonetheless, that would be an excellent move from Apple if indeed the rumors turn out to be true.

On the other hand, according to the supply chain blog Macotakara, Apple would finally ditch the Lightning Connector to adopt USB-C in its future 2019 iPhone models.

2019 iPhone Models To Adopt USB-C, While Apple Might Also Work on New iPod

“I heard from several suppliers of Apple who are listing in CES2019 that Apple might be developing iPod Touch (7th generation) that takes over iPod touch (6th generation). The present iPod touch (6th generation) is the cheapest terminal which we can buy from 199USD. Its sales started in July 2015, and we can use it as Apple device which we enjoy Apple Music costs 9.99USD per month,” reported a Macotakar’s contributor.

For the time being, it’s not clear which would be the features of the new iPod Touch device, so we don’t know anything about the future gadget. Apple might work on a more affordable iPod Touch variant to attract more customers before the launch of Apple’s video streaming service which would come out in the future.

While the development of a new iPod Touch is good news for the fans of the device, the move to USB-C in 2019 iPhone models is the most remarkable shift for Apple.

Hyper Presented The First USB-C Hub For The New iPad Pro 2018 Models

Both iPad Pro 2018 variants now use a USB-C port instead of a Lightning port for the first time in the series’ lifespan. The accessory manufacturer HYPER has just announced one of the first USB-C hub attachments specially developed for the iPad Pro 2018 models.

The hub was introduced as the HyperDrive for iPad Pro 2018. This USB-C hub plugs into the iPad Pro’s only USB-C port and expands to a wide array of ports, all in a pocket-sized accessory. Before you go any further, please notice that we have not yet checked this product, physically.

This USB-C hub for iPad Pro 2018 has the following ports: HDMI, 3.5 mm jack, SD, micro SD, USB-A 3.0, USB-C Power Delivery. The latter will allow the iPad Pro 2018 models to easily be plugged into your wall outlet using the USB-C power cord while the other ports remain usable. The SD and micro SD ports provide the user with the possibility to extend the device’s storage far beyond the iPad’s built-in internal capacity.

With the USB-A 3.0 port, the end-user can plug in a keyboard, microphone or Ethernet adaptor. Alternatively, you can also connect a USB cable from a DSLR camera to display photos on your iPad Pro 2018 models. You can also attach a Lightning cable to charge your iPhone, for example, while it would also permit you to connect external storage, but only to access photos and videos.

The HYPER USB-C hub for the iPad Pro 2018 models would probably work with other devices with a USB-C port. Although it is not unique, its design is ideal for the new iPad Pro 2018 models. Indeed, Hyper has just become the first company to promote its USB-C hub as being specially designed for the iPad Pro 2018 models.

The HYPER USB-C hub for the iPad Pro 2018 models come in silver and grey color schemes and work with both with 11- and 12.9-inch models of Apple’s new tablet. The hub will be available from December at a price of $99.99.
