Lightning and USB-C are two different types of connectors used to connect devices to computers and other devices. Lightning is an Apple-specific connector that is used on iPhones, iPads, and some iPods. USB-C is a universal connector that is used on a wide variety of devices, including phones, tablets, and laptops.
The main difference between Lightning and USB-C is their shape and size. Lightning connectors are much smaller than USB-C connectors, making them more difficult to plug in. USB-C connectors are also reversible, meaning you can plug them in either way and they will still work.
If you're trying to decide which connector to use for a device, it's important to make sure it is compatible with the device you are using. Some devices may only be compatible with certain types of connectors, so make sure to check the device's documentation or contact the manufacturer for more information. Additionally, you should make sure that the device you are connecting has the necessary ports for the type of connector you are using.
