The iPhone is one of the most advanced smartphones you can buy, and the upcoming iPhone 15 series will undoubtedly be among Apple’s fastest, and probably one of the best iPhones yet. In one way, though, the iPhone has been almost a decade behind, but that could change with the next generation. Recent rumors suggest that the next iPhone won’t just use USB-C, but that some models could get a bona fide Thunderbolt port at the bottom.
Macrumors is reporting on a leak of supposed iPhone 15 components that show the sort of part used to manage faster data speeds through a USB-C port. That could be either Thunderbolt or the less-common USB-4 standard; both would be a welcome improvement.
