I think the buzz is more surrounding the speeds. Lightning was limited to USB 2.0 speeds, whereas USB-C can potentially hit 10Gbps speeds.
That makes sense. More power to the people who want to tether their phones to an Ethernet port, I suppose that would be nice if you’re downloading a large game or something just to speed it up a little bit.
Or uploading footage to a NAS
The iPhone 15 is usb2. So surely can't hit gigabit speeds also. The pro models should be absolutely fine though.
I believe the Pro (or whatever they call the highest trim nowadays) supports USB4.
No. Pro is 3.2
There aren't any 10Gbps usb-c adapters. They are all thunderbolt. But you can get 5Gbps on regular USB-c. I've been looking for years, so I'd be thrilled to be proven wrong
