Apple famously kicked off the iPhone's transition away from the decade-old Lightning port and towards a new USB-C-shaped future with the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro in September 2023. But the iPhones are only part of that transition, with the rest of Apple's lineup also set to ditch Lightning in favor of the new, more universal port. That has to happen by the end of 2024, and a new report suggests that some of Apple's Mac accessories will be ready to make the change in the spring of that year.
That report claims that Apple is ready to breathe new life into its entire Mac input accessory lineup including its keyboards, mouse, and trackpad. All three currently use Lightning connectors for charging and quick-pairing, but that will have to change soon. Some had expected that change to take place when Apple announced the 24-inch M3 iMac not that long ago, but that didn't happen and there are brand-new Macs being sold today with Lightning port-endowed accessories in the box.
