Apple Cancels iPhone 14 And iPhone SE For Millions Of Customers
In a shocking move, Apple has abruptly cancelled the sale of iPhone 14 and iPhone SE models in millions of customers across Europe. This decision comes as a result of Common Charger regulations, which prohibit the sale of devices with Lightning ports. According to recent reports, the directive meant that iPhones with Lightning at their core had to be withdrawn by December 28.
The affected phones include the iPhone 14 and iPhone SE, which can no longer be purchased on Apple’s website or in-store. The ban applies not only to the EU countries but also to Switzerland and Northern Ireland.
While this might seem like a setback for European customers, there is still hope for those looking to purchase these devices. Third-party resellers are allowed to sell remaining stocks of the iPhone 14, which means you may still be able to find one available online or in-store.
It’s worth noting that sales of the iPhone SE were already declining, and it’s expected that a new model will arrive as early as March 2025. However, this sudden cancellation leaves many customers without affordable options.
In other news, Apple’s iPhone range now only offers models with USB-C ports, which means they are no longer available for purchase in Europe.
