Fuck apple. I love that the EU is constantly forcing them to be less shitty. And apple no doubt is super pissed. Being shitty is their business model
You’re sort of a one trick pony aren’t you? All full of Apple hate. Must be a bitter life you lead.
To the tune of throttling their newly forced adoption of USB-C.
They didn’t throttle anything. The chip in the iPhone 15 simply isn’t capable of the full speed. 
“hey they didn’t add a governor to the car, it’s just a shitty motor that they happened to decide not to upgrade”
The chip in the iPhone 15 is an upgrade from the iPhone 14. It just doesn’t do what you specifically want it to do. Perhaps you should buy a different phone.
Lol @ the idea of buying a device that with its every detail tells me that it knows better than I do
Imagine feeling insecure because of a smartphone
Do you really use USB-C to transfer data or to charge your phone? It’s been years since I used it for data, so I don’t think that’s a problem, in a world where cloud is becoming the norm.
You’re being downvoted, but you’re right. The majprity of apples users will not use the port for data. There’s a couple use cases, but they’re all niche
That’s my point, maybe it wasn’t clear enough. I think people that need to transfer a lot of data often to and from their phone can justify taking the Pro model (photographers, video makers, etc)
@BURN @SuperFola iOS development is one case…
iOS development linking can now be done wirelessly, and from all accounts it works 95-99% of the way
You’re good, I had the same ask a while back when discussing if they could go portless
If you’re using a platform that doesn’t try and force you to do everything wirelessly, a cable that runs full speed is very useful actually
Even back when I used android (I switched earlier this year) I found it far faster and easier to move data wirelessly than over a cable, even a USB-C. First I had to fight with my computer and phone to connect to one another… Or I could just upload to box on my phone, refresh on my computer and move the file.
Wait what? I bought a USB drive for transferring between my phone and computer, what is this ‘box’ you speak of?
It’s basically dropbox or Google Drive.
Has nothing to do with the concept of a cable.
Then, what is it you’re actually complaining about?
So that’s a “no”
Is there a positive to throttling their tech?
They can use last years chip.
They didn’t throttle anything. The iPhone 15’s chip simply can’t xfer at the higher speed.
Funny enough, I did so just last month. At first I tried it over wireless but it was far too slow. I was moving dozens of GBs of video to my phone. I do that whenever I’m prepping for a plane flight.
What a dumb (and weak) argument…
Lawyers gonna lawyer
Apples are naturally seedy
Gotta use what you have.
I guess lawyers salary often can be considered compensation for suffering through the bullshit their clients send them through.
This is an apple_enthusiast community. Why are there so many Apple hating trolls on here? Is their life really so harmed by the existence of Apple that they have to spend every waking moment trashing them on an enthusiast community? I feel sorry for them.
because it’s on the front page probably.
besides, it’s not like apple users are staying out of android-‘enthusiast’ communities or behaving any better.
I’m an Apple user and I’ve never even been in an Android community.
This just showed up I’m my feed, I could care less what you use and I’m a android user who never been in a android community. I don’t like corporations playing games to skirt laws though
I have many Apple devices across pretty much all of their categories, that doesn’t stop me from being very vocal when in disagree with them.
Being an Apple user, heck an Apple fan, doesn’t mean that you have to applaud every single thing the company does and never disagree.
