  The first USB-C Android phones were also only USB 2.0.

  Although that was 8 years ago, when USB 3 was only just starting to become commonplace.

  You just have to pay a little bit extra to get the speeds (that no one really uses on phones)

    Well I don’t have an original quality cloud backup. So eventually I move the DCIM folder back to my PC.

    That being said. I haven’t tried “Nearby” to move a 30GB folder with a lot of items. Maybe that works fine already. (For few items it’s very fast).

      You can set up backup on PC(or Mac of course) over WiFi. It will then backup your phone overnight where speed is irrelevant.

    I’ll transfer a bunch of audio books to and from my phone every once in a while. Since they are FLAC files I certainly do appreciate the additional speed from having a protocol that’s not yet old enough to drink.

    And in case someone missed the reference: USB 2.0 was released in the year 2000.

      😄do you really believe that there are more than 1 percent of iPhone users who sync stuff like you do? (Which don’t use a iPhone pro anyway)

        Probably. Especially with phone cameras becoming so good that we now need to transfer multi GB video files.
