Sketchy Rumor Claims Apple Might Bring Faster Data Transfer Speeds With a Lightning Connector on iPhone 14 Pro Models
The news was shared by iDropNews, suggesting that the higher-end iPhone 14 Pro models will feature a USB 3.0 Lightning connector for faster speeds. Apple launched its first iPad Pro model back in 2015 that featured a USB 3.0 Lightning port. However, Apple did not update the iPhone with the technology. If Apple is not looking to bring the USB-C port with the iPhone 14 models, it makes sense to introduce a faster Lightning connector. At this point, the iPhone 13 models feature a Lightning connector with USB 2.0 technology. Currently, iPhone models can only transfer data at the speed of 480 Mbps. If Apple goes ahead with a USB 3.0 Lightning connector, the data transfer speeds could jump up to 5 Gbps. The move would also make sense because Apple introduced a new 4K ProRes format. With the new format, file sizes have more than doubled in size. It would be a welcome addition if Apple plans to bring a USB 3.0 speed with the iPhone 14 series. Take note that the final word rests with Apple, so be sure to take the news with a pinch of salt. This is all there is to it, folks. What are your thoughts on the subject?
