I believe that the industry is moving toward USB-C as the standard connection/charging cable.

What I*like a lot with my Kobo is that, currently, it uses the same charging cable as my phone (micro USB). Which means only one adapter when I travel.

Now, new laptops and new phones are increasingly switching to USB-C.

The day I*will have an USB-C phone, my Kobo will become an hurdle that requires me to take one more adapter.

I*hope that, on that day, there will be an USB-C Kobo in the store. I would buy it immediately.
