Q: Do both the iPhone 15 and 15 Pro models come with USB-C ports?

A: Yes, both the iPhone 15 and 15 Pro are the first iPhones to feature USB-C. This was Apple's opportunity to address the previous slow wired connection issues.

Q: Why does the base iPhone 15 model only support USB 2.0 speeds when it has a USB-C port?

A: It's a decision by Apple that has surprised many. Despite having a USB-C port, the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus only support USB 2.0 transfer speeds, capping file transfers at 480Mb/s. This is confirmed by the specs on Apple's official site.

Q: How do the transfer speeds of the iPhone 15 Pro differ from the base iPhone 15?

A: The iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max support faster USB 3.0 transfer speeds, allowing for file transfers of up to 10Gb/s. This is especially beneficial for tasks like recording 4K ProRes videos directly to external storage or transferring RAW photos directly from the iPhone to a Mac.
