Apple Vision Pro Unveils Second, Larger Lightning Connector

iFixit's teardown reveals a hidden, oversized Lightning connector in the headset's strap, sparking questions about compliance with EU regulations.

iFixit reveals a second, significantly larger Lightning connector in the Apple Vision Pro, hidden within the headset's strap.
The newly discovered connector is much larger than the traditional Lightning cables used by Apple, and its access requires specialized tools.
Apple may need to switch from Lightning to USB-C for the Vision Pro in markets outside the U.S., following EU regulations.
The discovery raises questions about Apple's use of oversized Lightning cables, especially after transitioning to USB-C for the iPhone 15.
The complete teardown of the Apple Vision Pro by iFixit is anticipated to reveal more surprises.
