Smartphones today have a similar connector , which is micro USB . This connector can connect the phone to a personal computer or use as a battery charger ( charger ) . The similarity of these connector types is the result of a request from the European Commission .
Not to stop there , now the European Union back asking smartphone vendors making a new standard charger .
Quoted from Android Authority , Friday ( 12/20/2013 ) , the European Union is cooking legislation to order the smartphone vendors who market their products in Europe , in order to create a new standard charger . This legislation is expected to be completed by March 2014 .
Nevertheless , the EU has not elaborate clear standards as to what is meant charger . Android Authority predicts , the new standard micro USB connector that is reversible , since the connector will replace the predicted micro USB connector .
Countries in Europe will be given two years to comply with the new rules . While smartphone vendors were given one year longer.
Apple is one company that does not follow the wishes of the European Union , since the company founded by Steve Jobs that has a standard connector and charger cable itself . It remains unclear whether Apple again received an exception from the European Commission or not .
Since 2012, when the product is launched iPhone 5 , Apple has changed the length of the connector models . Apple 's new connector with a smaller size it is called Lightning .
Strong suspicion that the EU measures uniformity smartphone charger cables and connectors are based smartphone because many events would explode or injure the user when to charge the battery .
These events often occur due to the use of the tool or charger cord is not original , and the negligence of the user who does not follow the rules of the battery charge .
