there's something hilarious to me about the fact that the first USB-C iPhone, the iPhone 15 is only going to support USB 2.0 speeds.
USB 2.0 released in the year of our lord 2000. 23 years ago.
yes, I know lightning also only supports usb 2.0. that's bizarre too, but at least they could blame the connector for not having enough pins.
you could plug your 2023 iPhone into a 2003 iMac (pictured above), and saturate the USB 2.0 link. For reference, the iPhone would have like... an order of magnitude (easily, probably more) processing power and RAM (and disk!) than the iMac.
I have microcontrollers that could be a USB 2.0 host these days. Those could saturate the link too.
lol. lmao.
