I still get my external monitor and external hard drive disconnecting randomly. I really didn't notice a difference in how the adapter or Apple USB-C connectors snapped into unit but they assured me that it fit properly. Went back in within two days to pick up and they said they replaced the power unit. Took it into Apple Center, they sent it out for repair.

The vast majority of MFi devices are Lightning, and while accessory makers would still need to support Lightning devices while older phones are still being sold, the switch to USB-C will surely be swift.įor all the latest news and rumors about this year’s new handsets, check out our iPhone 15 superguide.I had the same problem on left side of my 2017 MacBook Pro 15' I purchased in September. However, the iPhone is far and away Apple’s biggest-selling device, so it wouldn’t be a surprise to see Apple expand the program to USB-C. That same warning doesn’t apply to USB-C accessories on the iPad, and there are no reports about slower charging speeds when using third-party cables. With the current iPhones, accessories that aren’t MFi certified aren’t guaranteed to work with the iPhone and often display a “This accessory is not supported” warning when connected. It’s already rumored that the iPhone 15 Pro models will support Thunderbolt transfers of 40Gbps, so the MFi certification will likely be needed to achieve those speeds. It’s not clear whether this means charging would be slower than the current 20W speeds, or if it would be limited to 20W and the USB-C iPhones would support faster charging. ShrimpApplePro’s claim is that an unsupported cable would result in a slower charging speed that an MFi-certified one.
