ok now im really curious, what are you plugging into your CELL PHONE that requires 10 gigabit?
I had this question as well. I don’t think I’ve physically plugged my iPhone 11 in for data/photo/video syncing since I got it. Everything is super fast over wifi, there’s no reason for a cord. Only thing I use the port for is charging and sometimes audio. I’d probably have been fine if they dropped the port, but I’m happy they kept it for now.
Hey I’m with you, don’t really need faster wired data speeds.
But I guess Apple has changed their goals if they are leaving out common functionality available in all other flagship devices simply because it’s not strictly necessary 🤷
I think it should have had USB 3, but iPhone 15 isn’t Apple’s flagship device.
Fair, but most midrange phones have at least USB3 as well, no?
I don’t actually know for certain, but I can’t imagine why they wouldn’t.
My uneducated guess is this: the iPhone 15 uses the same A16 chip as the 14 Pro did, to more easily produce it at scale and cost effectively. The 14 Pro had Lightning and therefore 2.0 speeds. The 15 kept the 2.0 speed because the A16 couldn’t (readily?) be reengineered to support a 3.0 connector.
You’d be surprised how much vlogging and videography is performed with iPhones. Even LMG use one for GameLinked
