It took the EU legislation to force them adapt USB 3 charger port. Their consumer base are their cows.

And even though they have USB 3 ports, it's not even a proper USB 3 port as the lower-end models only support USB 2 speeds (480Mbps max)!

USB 2.0 in 2023 LOL LOL LOL LOL

Lightning was also 480Mbps so I wonder if they just changed the port but kept most of the internals the same

yeah, I forgot about that, it's a USB-C type port.
