USB-C has been a better option for years, if only because of how widespread it is. It sounds like Apple might have a crappy USB-C port on the 15, but on my phone it can do so much, I love it.

USB-C is as big of a change as USB-A/B was back in the day (I don't miss having a gazillion connector types).

Some specs:

Lightning vs USB-C:

  • 480Mbps vs 80,000Mbps (I wrote 10Gbps initially, it's up to 80Gbps now)
  • 96 watts vs 240 watts
  • HDMI only - HDMI and DisplayPort

Edited to fix formatting and USB-C speed
