It’s shocking that they’re so openly scamming their customers. Base models comes with last’s year chip and features. Has a gimped USB 2.0 port for maybe a 5$ difference. It’s an insult to apple customers and they’re loving it.

Leave it to Apple to release a new iPhone with intentionally outdated, hamstrung technology just to upsell more expensive models.
My 2013 Samsung had usb 3, used a special micro USB 3 cable but still.

And Samsung quickly switched back to USB 2 shortly after because nobody really cared and it created other problems.

All phone models for the last many years from them have USB 3.

What other problems?
fuckwit_mcbumcrumble@lemmy.world 1 year ago
RF interference I believe.

Oh, interesting!

That’s mainly because microusb 3.0 was a failed tech, the cable was just so unwieldy and huge. Focus of S6 was on design so a large chunky port would be very difficult to keep.
