Because it's convenient no matter who you are, everybody benefits from faster transfer speeds. Competition is using usb 3.2 and apple with it's 160 billion dollars profit couldn't? And it's not like they are developing it from scratch. I don't get it why can't you keep multi billion dollar corporations up to a certain standard. This is 2023, not 2003.

It’s more that I don’t presume to know the full reason behind every decision they make.

The A16 processor that’s just made its way to the iPhone didn’t have usb3 on chip, the new A17 on the iPhone pro does. My assumption is that next year when iPhone presumably moves to the A17 that it will then have usb3 speeds.

Not everything has to be some nefarious plot, damn.
