<p>Apple is changing how consumers charge their iPhones following the recent passing of a European Union law.</p>
<p>Beginning with its new devices, Apple announced Tuesday it would switch over to USB-C chargers sometime by 2024, CNBC and Forbes reported.</p>
<p>“Obviously, we’ll have to comply,” said Greg Joswiak, Apple’s senior vice president of worldwide marketing, at The Wall Street Journal Tech Live conference, per CNBC and Forbes.</p>
<p>The news of the change was first announced earlier this month in a European Parliament <a class="Link" href="https://go.redirectingat.com/?id=111346X1569486&amp;url=https://www.europarl.europa.eu/news/en/press-room/20220930IPR41928/long-awaited-common-charger-for-mobile-devices-will-be-a-reality-in-2024&amp;xcust=1-1-1341179-1-0-0&amp;sref=https://www.macworld.com/article/1341179/apple-will-be-forced-to-switch-iphone-to-usb-c-by-2024.html">press release</a>.</p>
<p>Devices also affected by the new law include headphones, digital cameras, e-readers, mice, keyboards, and portable game consoles and speakers, the news release said.</p>
<p>For laptops, they'll have time to implement the change since the law doesn't go into effect for them until spring 2026, according to the news release.</p>
<p>Although they have to switch to abide by the new law, CNBC and Forbes pointed out that Apple hasn't been excited about the change.</p>
<p>According to the news outlets, Joswiak pointed out that over a billion people have devices that use Apple’s Lightning chargers.</p>
<p>“We think the approach would have been better environmentally and better for our customers to not have a government be that prescriptive,” Joswiak said per CNBC.</p>
