Apple finally put USB-C in new iPhone, but limited to 23-year-old USB 2.0 speeds

https://www.pcgamer.com/apple-finally-put-usb-c-in-the-new-iphone-but-its-inexplicably-limited-to-23-year-old-usb-20-speeds/

Summary: Apple has introduced USB-C ports to the iPhone 15, replacing the Lightning port. However, the standard iPhone 15 model uses the outdated USB 2.0 protocol, limiting transfer speeds to 480 Mbps. The iPhone 15 Pro features a faster 3.0-spec interface with 10 Gbps transfer speeds, due to its A17 Pro APU and new on-die USB controller block. The iPhone 15 starts at $799, while the iPhone 15 Pro starts at $999.
