How some seem to think Steve Jobs could do no wrong. Under Steve Jobs, the iPhone 4 had antenna issues. His solution was to tell everyone they are holding it wrong and hand out TPU frames. Under Steve Jobs, MobileMe was a complete disaster.
So you think the Apple M series processors are crap. You think the M1 computers is crap. These are a couple of examples under Tim Cook.
It appears you have a narrow vision of what products ship under Tim Cook. I canāt remember the last time I needed to transfer large files from any of the iPhones I have ever owned. Do you need USB-C on your iPhone or are you here just to complain about a first world problem for a majority of iPhone users.
The drama has all died, hasnāt it. Need some drama to keep us going.
IPad Pro Lighting Port works with USB 3.0, but there's a catch
Apple's iPad Pro has a USB 3.0 host controller inside, which will boost transfer speeds and possibly bring more accessory support. You'll need new adapters though.

Apple will have to come up with a way to allow a portless iPhone to be used in cars that only supported wired CarPlay,
And before anyone mentions the wireless adapters that are offered to convert wired CarPlay to use a wireless connection, those are expense and I have seen people report Bluetooth sync issues.
I think Apple will introduce a iPhone that has a smart connector that can be use in situation like needing wired CarPlay. This would also allow Apple to continue with its MiFi cable program. It could also be used in conjunction with MagSafe as a way of attaching the smart connector cable.

I said in my earlier reply to that comment that I donāt hate Tim Cook and I donāt hate anyone. Iād like to add that I like Tim Cookās charity work, including the charity work heās done at Apple. Itās admirable and commendable.
I donāt dislike Cook as a person. I dislike him as a CEO. Thatās because heās not a products person. Heās not interested in making the best/most efficient tools for users. Heās more interested in maximizing profits to please shareholders, and he does that in large part by cutting corners on products. The likely USB 2.0 lightning port on the upcoming iPhone 14 is case in point.

That is precisely my pointāTim Cook stifles innovation and functionality if lots of money can be made by doing so. In other words, he prioritizes shareholders over users.
I agree that keeping USB 2.0 speeds is idiotic. However, I realize that perhaps the goal of pictures are to be transferred over wireless. After all, Apple has baked in several technologies where you can copy/paste wirelessly between phones, iPads, and Macs easily all without having them connected.
Furthermore, iCloud Drive and Photos work seamlessly. I fail to see why to connect your phone for picture transfer all the time. I understand the need for USB 3.0, but Apple has given its users several options.
The only difference is that Steve jobs would have found a way to justify why people donāt need usb 3.0 speeds on their phones, and people would buy it.
The man has been dead for over 10 years now. Stop projecting and assuming that he would have done the total opposite of everything that you dislike about Apple today because the man was never perfect.
Apple Silicon and iPads all going USB-C showed that Apple could do it. Tim simply selectively milk certain products (eg iPhone) for maximum revenue, while pushing the tech on other less risky products. Thatās smart business. I mean I donāt see people here stop buying iPhones even with USB 2 speed, so why wouldnāt Apple milk it to the max? Blame people who keep buying the latest iPhones no matter what. š
Tim Cook will ship iPhones with USB 2.0 when he feels itās needed . Until then he knows everyone is gonna to continue to buy apple products regardless .
I can believe either the Pro versions or both Pro/Non-Pro getting USB 3.0 via Lightning. Better for Apple to implement in than USB C ( and obviously we have only 3 iDevices which have USB 3 Lightning Female Ports, the 2 A10X iPads and the 12.9 inch A9X one)
We recently purchased a 2022 Ioniq and it comes with wireless CarPlay. I canāt imagine going back to using cables. We love it. Also love getting 59mpg.
After 10 years, there is no "Steve would have done X instead". What Steve left, ran its course at most 4 years after his death. Apple is known to plan that far ahead. In other words, let the man rest. So yeah, I agree with you.
Again to people on the thread wanting USB3.0. We get it, but Apple has given you wireless options to transfer those pictures or data quicker.
Unfortunately, Hyundai have now stopped manufacturing the Ioniq so that's the end of that.
Are you sure? When I go to their website it still shows all of the Ioniq hybrid trim levels and pricing.Unfortunately, Hyundai have now stopped manufacturing the Ioniq so that's the end of that.
Yes, definitely. While there are still stocks, the models will still be on their website.
Could anyone even imagine Steve Jobs shipping an iPhone in 2012 with USB 2.0 connectivity knowing that Macs shipped earlier that year with USB 3.0, let alone every single year after that for 10 more years?
just stop dude., and let things happen., this is the way.
Are you guys aware that you can use Airdrop or iCloud storage ?
using the lightning cable to transfer data is a relic of the past
