Most hilarious is adding USB-C, announcing lightning 5 and then keeping the transfer rate at USB 2.0 speeds.

I meant to write "after he took over Twitter". Fixed.

I sold my Tesla stock that I had held for many years not long after he took over Twitter.

Looks very nice. Maybe I will have to try it sometime.

Fortunately my use case doesn't require frequent syncing, so once every 2-3 months just plugging my phone in when I know I'll be at my desk at home for a while is enough. It's shitty but it gets the job done that I need. I always prefer to stick to the native tools where possible just to stay compliant with whatever changes may come in the future.

It is a purely logical conclusion if Apple actually wanted to make this feature good like the rest of its competitors who have been giving usb 3.0 on their phones for more than a decade already. But Apple needs to milk us for more iCloud revenue, so this probably never will happen.

I struggled with iOS' Wi-Fi syncing for almost a year before giving up on it. It was garbage (probably also by design to try to force me to pay for overpriced iCloud storage). My use case is to sync photos to the desktop photos app and music to the desktop music app.

Man I tried wifi syncing for quite a while and had nothing but problems with it. It was a disaster.

It's to force people to pay for iCloud storage rather than keep files locally on their PC. That, and nothing else. No other phone in this price range still has USB 2.0, and most haven't for a very long time.

I don't want to pay for 300gb of overpriced iCloud storage. That's the use case.

Lol, the iPhone 15 will get USB 2.0 like the rest of them.

C'mon, Oracle's business tools don't just fail in government, they fail in business too.. So at least it's an on par performance.
