Lightning port
iPhone charging socket
Lightning port refers to Apple's proprietary connector introduced in 2012, replacing the earlier 30-pin dock connector on iPhones, iPads, and other Apple devices.
The small, reversible plug handles charging and data transfer.
My Lightning port is full of lint.
Apple has gradually phased it out in favor of USB-C, though it remains on older devices and some accessories.
