We’ve heard from multiple sources that every model in Apple’s upcoming iPhone 15 line will use USB-C charging ports instead of Lightning ports, but the latest intelligence suggests that the iPhone 15 Pro (and presumably the iPhone 15 Ultra) will have two important port-related advantages over its vanilla sibling.

For starters, the iPhone 15 Pro will reportedly support Thunderbolt 3 data transfer speeds in addition to USB-C 3.2 data transfer speeds, where the standard iPhone 15 will only support the latter. Thunderbolt 3 speeds can reach 40Gbps, where USB-C 3.2 speeds top out at 20Gbps, meaning the iPhone 15 Pro will be able to transfer files at a much faster rate.
