It's Apple. Expect that. Their USB-C already has been designed to be DIFFERENT than others even thoigh defeating the EU directive intention. Unless EU rewrite a more stringent USB-C requirement, we will get that new USB-C feature "for first time in computing" by Apple for iphone 15 ultra.

How do you know that? There is no iPhone from Apple with an USB-C port. You are just speculating based on some rumors.

On some rumors and previous Apple behavior.

Current and previous Apple behavior with USB-C is regular USB-C, with USB-PD for changing, on Macbooks and iPads. Why should iPhone be any different?

Also being different would make it would be incompatible with current Macbook and iPad owner's chargers.

You mean even though Apple already ships iPads with USB C that aren’t “different”? Do you think Apple is going to turn around and make the iPhone USB C port “different” and incompatible with their shipping iPads?
