Apple to have a USB-C port and removable battery?
The European Union has mandated all mobile phones, tablets and cameras sold in the region be equipped with a USB Type-C charging port by the end of 2024.

Curved and thinner bezels
The next-generation "Pro" iPhone models will continue to feature flat screens but with curved and slimmer bezels. This combination of reduced bezels and curved edges might give the Apple Watch Series 7 and Series 8 a similar appearance, MacRumors reported.
However, going with the long tradition, Apple has kept everything secret for launch day, these are simply rumours, so certain specifications may end up changing.
