yes i am very smart

Edit: Not this guy, but I also saw some say that Apple would come out with a charger that was "ten times faster than type c" if it weren't for the regulation, which is really funny bc that would be 2400W minimum, aka more than a North American breaker can even handle

      They restrict 3.1 speeds to the pro models :troll:

          Lighting doesn't have pins for 3.0 even if they wanted to aifk.

          It was meant to be a Band-Aid while usbc was developed, but id suspect that Apple didn't like the public backlash from changing to lightning and has been holding off on another change until absolutely necessary

      doesn't matter tbh, hardly anyone connects their phones to transmit info. it's gotten to the point where sticking some sort of file server on android and fetching stuff using wifi is faster than plugging in your phone and relying on mtp. same for iphones, users rely on airdrop instead of itunes.
