Like every year! Hopefully the usb-c rumours are true

[–] krische 5 points 1 year ago (4 children)

I think the chances of that are pretty solid, but it will apparently still be USB 2.0 speeds.

To be honest, I can’t remember the last time I used the lightning plug to transfer any data, so it’s not a current feature I will miss. But it’s a huge, missed opportunity for sure.

Agreed, not just seems like such an oddity. But I believe the new USB-C iPad is 2.0, so whatever "hack" they did for that is probably what they're doing for the iPhones. Seems almost like they rushed it with the incoming regulations.
