Uniform Charging Port: “Samsung is pushing for implementing the charging mandate along with European Union (EU) timeline for smartphones, which is December 28, 2024; Apple suggested an EU+6 months’ timeline for new models and an EU+18 months, if existing models are also included in the mandate,” said an official privy of the details.
India is likely to make the Type-C port mandatory for mobile phones from March 2025, just three months after a similar directive takes effect in the EU region.
