I expect the pro max to have thunderbolt and normal iPhone to have this slow USB.

It's literally exactly as fast as lightning is for the current generation phones.. so you lose nothing / gain nothing.
But I guess it's apple so we gotta riot while it's perfeCtly fine for android phones to ship that way depending on which vendor you pick.
This was Apple's chance to up the bandwidth on their phone ports, it would cost them pennies (maybe less than pennies) and would give them a talking point. 6 years ago the 2017 Pixel 2 had USB 3.1 support. It's 2023 now.
Apple is either trying to squeeze people as much as possible before it's game over for their proprietary cables, or are afraid that people can't identify which cables support which speeds. Maybe a bit of both?
Not acceptable for phones that are more expensive, to have speeds from a USB spec designed in the year 2000. Pixel 7 currently implements USB 3.2 standards, and with USB 4.0 (based on Thunderbolt, designed by Apple and Intel) on the way, I'm sure Android phones will be packing that as soon as they can.

Almost like Android has no business practices to criticize because it's not a company. This thread is about criticizing Apple, not iOS.

I'd hate to be one of the 15 unlucky buyers...

That said - fsck Apple. I've no interest in their little walled garden. These stunts just reinforce why I feel that way.
