>It is USB 2.0 because the iPhone uses the previous generation A16 SOC which was designed around the Lightning port.

I know, but as a paying customer I don't care what their bs technical limitation was when my old Samsung Note 3 had USB 3.0 10 years ago so it's not like USB 3.0 is some brand new sci-fi tech that's difficult to figure out like EUV litography.

How's this for a fix: They could have put the newer SoC with USB 3.0 in those phones as well and not artificially gimp them like that.

How can I not feel scammed when a company treats it's customers like that?
