    Usb 2.0 is 23 years old now.

    There’s a line between “enhancing the pro model by shitting on everyone else” but like this is just disrespectful.

    But hey your money, spend that shit as stupidly as you want

    (3.0 came out 15 years ago for reference, it’ll be older than some kids getting the phone ffs)

      The word you’re looking for is “anti-consumer”

      No, no it’s fucking not. How about you not base radical accusations on bullshit articles?

      According to leaker Majin Bu, who has previously shared details about Apple’s new cables, the USB-C cables supplied in iPhone 15 boxes are indeed limited to USB 2.0 data transfer speeds at a rate of 480 MBps, which is the same as Lightning.

      In contrast, rumors converge on both iPhone 15 Pro models supporting higher USB-C transfer speeds. According to Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the iPhone 15 Pro models will support “at least” USB 3.2 or Thunderbolt 3. For comparison, the iPad Pro features a Thunderbolt port for transfer speeds up to 40 Gbps, while the entry-level iPad’s USB-C port is limited to just 480 Mbps.

      And that is the crux of it. rumors

      Ah, but what am I saying?! Please, return to your circlejerk, I’ll not bother you with any more inconvenient facts
