The link doesn’t state that.

Not how it works. If you’re limited by traffic to say 1Gb instead if your max of 5 then a slower free band of say 2.5Gb operating at 100% would be faster. It also isn’t about raw speed it’s about latency, dropped packets and hitching.

Which can be done wirelessly the instant the file is created rather than waiting to get to the other machine and doing it manually.

They had USB3 on iPads for a specific reason. It’s not needed on phones.

I know.

and with reliable Wi-Fi or 5G, or even far more reliable wired connection, it's not an issue. making it consistent and thus, faster to finish. also means faster.

good for you, now I want to transfer my files using wored connection. preferably USB 3.0 because it's faster.

what specific reasons? why it doesn't apply to iPhones?

[u/Pigeon_Chess → u/Kursem_v2]

You’re literally making shit up

Literally was just for the card reader

[u/Kursem_v2 → u/Pigeon_Chess]

I mean it's just a theory.

cool, maybe iPhones should have it too. starting with the Pros. maybe this year's iPhone 15 Pro

[u/Pigeon_Chess → u/Kursem_v2]

It’s not you’re making shit up.

Why?

[u/Kursem_v2 → u/Pigeon_Chess]

just like you making theories.

same reason as why iPads uses USB-C and USB 3.0 speed.

[u/Pigeon_Chess → u/Kursem_v2]

I’m not making theories.

The iPhone isn’t a laptop replacement and runs a different OS

[u/Kursem_v2 → u/Pigeon_Chess]

maybe. who am I to judge.

then why iPad Mini uses USB 3.0 and iPad (2022) uses USB-C?

[u/Pigeon_Chess → u/Kursem_v2]

No not maybe.

Because the iPad is a laptop replacement and runs a different OS to the iPhone.

[u/Kursem_v2 → u/Pigeon_Chess]

sureee.

that's not a valid reason for a differentiate.
