MODERATORS
They are not, unless you get the pro as far as I have seen/heard. The regular iPhone is artificially limited to USB 2.0 speeds.
It is not artificially limited. It’s using the board from last year’s Pro model. It doesn’t have a USB3 interface.
The Pro still doesn't have PD charging.
When they go portless (I'm guessing next year or 2) they don't want people bitching that the charging is slower, so they're not going to support wired charging that's faster than wireless.
The same law that forces standardised cable by the EU also forces Apple to not go portless, since it needs a standardised port on the device that can be used to charge.
USB 2.0 vs. 3.0 data has nothing to do with USB PD charging wattage.
This is to force users to use cloud solutions and lock users in the apple ecosystem
