    It’s the ports, they force USB2.0 speeds (same as lightning) unless you get the Pro (this is unverified)

      Not as much force, it’s just the chip in there isn’t good.

      It’s very verified by the way, it’s in the Tech Specs.

      IPhone 15: usb 2 to 480 Mbps (source)
      IPhone 15 Pro: usb 3 up to 10 Gbps (source)

      Wait so if it’s not apple’s cable you’re throttled to usb 2.0 speeds?

        Nothing to do with the cable, the port on the device is a USB-C port that is limited to USB2.0 speeds. Whereas the iPhone Pro has one that can do USB3.0 speeds. This seems to have been recently verified by the tech specs on Apple website btw

        No, only the iPhone 15 pro has usb3. iPhone 15 is usb2. They have it listed that way on their site.
