"W00T, THE BARE MINIMUM, TAKE THAT GOOGLE" *Apple fans, still stuck, like, in 2017

What really blows my mind is not that the lower-end models have USB2.0 speeds, but that all iPhones always have in the past.

Lighting truly was ancient.

Apple actually upgraded Lightning to USB 3.0 speeds for the first (and second?) generation iPad Pro. There's a official USB 3 "camera adapter" (essentially a Lightning to USB-A + Lightning passthrough for charging dongle) that works with these iPads at 3.0 speeds.

That was a very short run though, I don't even think Apple ever released a Lightning to USB-A/C cable with 3.0 speeds.

Of course the top comment is some "Apple vs. Google" garbage.

I can't say that I've seen any comment like this where the user wasn't being sarcastic.

I hope not, otherwise I have been charging myself the wrong way for decades!
