On Tuesday, Apple surprised iPhone owners by quietly releasing a new official dock on the Apple Store. The dock does what you might expect but is also engineered in a way that allows for official Apple cases to fit on it. The sleek dock obviously has a Lightning-male connector, for an iPhone or iPod Touch, and a Lightning-female port to plug in a cable.
As with most Apple docks, the 2015 dock also brings back the line-in jack so that music can be played through speakers while an iOS device is sitting atop. The dock supports the iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 6, iPhone 5S, iPhone 5, as well as any iPod Touch with a Lightning connector. Apple's new dock can be found on the Apple Store website for $39.99 with an estimated shipping time of 1-3 days.
