The only ‘new’ feature that would excite me enough to buy an iPhone 15 is USB-C

That seems like either I’m 100% satisfied with my iPhone 13 Pro Max, and I have reached my peak cell phone feature set, or the iPhone 15 just is not very enticing of a purchase, especially considering the considerable cost.

Just be aware that they're selling models that are USB 2.0 with the USB-C interface.

Why would you need usb 3 for charging, there are better ways to data transfer on it

Thunderbolt would’ve been nice for transferring photos, but no pro is going to actually use an iPhone for a long photo shoot that is going to produce several gigs of data. That’s what the DSLR is for.

99.9999% of the time, this is a charging port.

Just did a reinstall in my 13 mini through Wi-Fi iCloud backup I have gigabit internet it was still slower than I would like.

A usb3 connection would’ve been great.

I also like to use wired connection to use Lightroom on the go with my camera RAWs I ended up not using it cause usb2 is too slow. My camera doesn’t transfer raw through Wi-Fi

That's one of the only use cases where it'd be a benefit. But i can wait for a little extra while in these one off situations. Especially if I'm recovering from a boot loop or a bricked phone. Knowing it's working is relief.

Can't survive an android without one of those
