Sorry if my post was confusing. The first point was referring to cables for iPhones before the latest iPhone 15 models — previously, you’d get a cable that was standard USB-C on one end, and Lightning (the proprietary connector) on the other.

All iPhone 15 models use completely standard USB-C and come with a C to C cable in the box.
