    I think there are logical explanations for this as commented by others. I’m genuinely curious who’s actually transferring data from the phone port these days… it’s been years since I synced anything to my computer. My port is used solely for charging. What’s the use case? Music?

      I work in IT and will often plug in devices to a PC for a variety of reasons (I work with alot of older folks, so “cloud storage” is scary).

      The transfer times with iPhone can be pretty appalling.

        Yeah, well, Jennifer Lawrence has a lot to say about Apple’s cloud storage.

      Moving large FLAC files onto my phone, and sending music data through USB into an audiophile DAC/amp. The higher the transfer speeds the better when you’re moving gigabytes of data from my computer to my phone.

      Photos and videos for professionals. These days phone cameras are good enough for at least a backup device and they’ll transfer to laptop using cable. But I’d assume those people are on the iPhone pro models
