Now the 20% performance increase from last years becomes 10 and you have basically the same phone as last year. Good job to ensure people preorder.
But it uses the same connector as every other device I own, which is the biggest selling point of this year’s model. The performance gains are completely wasted because the 14 was already faster than needed for any usecase.
I honestly have no idea why iPhone users put up with those cables for so long.
Me neither, the 30-pin cable was a pain!
Seriously though, I bought many of my Lightning cables before usb-c came out, after usb-c I bought universal cables. Most Apple stuff was already USB-C so it made sense.
