When was the last time you transferred data to or from your phone by cable? The USB port is mostly only for charging.

Ok then you are probably not the target audience

Just because I use my phones usb port often doesn’t mean others who don’t should get obsolete technology.

Not to also mention most people probably don’t want to pay for cloud storage and transferring images to a computer with more storage makes the most sense for those people.

what are those people gonna do when their $900 phone that they overplayed for takes 3 hours to transfer 50gb worth of photos?

I torrent movies on my phone and move them to my media server all the time.
Having USB 3.0 on my phone makes it a lot faster than it would be with 2.0
