Because the European Union (EU) will mandate USB-C for all devices sold within its member states by 2024, Apple will be compelled to make the switch for the next generation of iPhones.

During this time, the European Union (EU) will require USB-C for all devices sold within its member states. Perhaps Apple will only upgrade iPhone models sold in Europe to integrate the new USB-C port, but it would add unneeded complication, so I expect the update to be rolled out to all of the company’s devices.

Though the change must be implemented beginning with the iPhone 16 in 2024, rumors have persisted that Apple plans to implement it with the iPhone 15.
