ITT: people who don't realize that most USB-C cables are USB 2.0
This is irrelevant.
We're talking about smartphones here, and most new Android phones support > 3.0.
Limiting a flagship phone in 2023 to USB 2.0 transfer and charging speeds is a cheapskate move.
The article only really has facts about the 2.0 cable, anything said about the device is speculated.
The entire article is literally based on a tweet where someone tested the cable. The title of the article and of this Lemmy post references that.
Ah, I see. If the phones themselves support > 3.0, that would certainly be less egregious.
