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.

    I honestly have no idea why iPhone users put up with those cables for so long.

    Because they had to if they wanted to stick with the iPhone.

    Really though, fuck Apple. This change wouldn't have happened without the EU forcing their hand.

    I do find it strange though. For the first time since the 4S I am actually interested in the iPhone and going to USB-C is a big factor in that interest.

    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.

    Dord Iphone have their version of DEX? I could see the need for power if more people use their phones as a desktop computer. I think we're not too far away from the day where laptops will just be a screen and a dock for your phone. There is no reason to have a laptop if my phone can do 95% of what it can. I hardly use my personal computer as it is.
