Apple boasting about USB-C as if they willingly switched the connector to do the right thing and help consumers. Scumbags.

It's been a given that the A16 in the iPhone 14 Pro / Pro Max would trickle down to the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus, and that they wouldn't get the new A17 chip. We saw this with the iPhone 14 and 14 Plus getting the A15 processor from the 13 Pro / Pro Max.
Only the 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max will get the A17. Then next year, the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus will get the A17 while the 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max will get an A18
RIP 🪦 notch.
And Mute switch.
You were the best and not distracting :/

Europe made this mandatory. Makes sence would change across the board.
Now with 2X optical-like zoom, through the sheer power of marketing BS.
Speak for yourself, I love finally being able to just carry USB-C cables when travelling now
If it had ProMotion, it would be an instant-buy for me. But the decision is harder knowing that if I stick with the non-Pros, I won't get 120 Hz until 2025 at the earliest...
Which really says a lot considering USB-C is not a selling point in my opinion.I think its the best feature of the 15
Because we're supposed to make accounts to only post praises? That's super funny.
How did they spend that much time talking about the camera that was introduced a year ago?
usb-c would be more awesome if it didn't had a high failure rate and would be more durable. EU should consider such before FORCING companies to do what stupid politicians think is good
maybe u should listen carefully to what they saying -.-
I hope to get a little bit more information about transfer rates on Apple USB-C cables.
This needs promotion and i would be all in. Don’t really need anything else from the Pro
Telephoto lens is very nice to see. One of the reasons I’ve bought the pro iPhones.

No white sucks a bit, but that's what cases are for.
I love the Dynamic Island inclusion, Roadside Assistance and USB-C.
So this is the "final" iPhone config. It won't really change for a while, I think.

The super slick aluminum edges of iPhone with the super slick frosted back glass of iPhone Pro. Slipperiest iPhone ever?
FTR, I’m all in on USB-C.
The immediate problem is that it is almost impossible to know what speeds, protocols, etc. any random USB-C cable supports.
The long term problem is that, by legislating USB-C, we’ll never know what a hypothetical USB-D or USB-E standard could do.
Their website says that the iPhone 15 model has the USB 2 spec with up to 480 Mb/s:
It doesn't say anything about the cable though.
