And probably have a separate controller? I’m not very technical at all but I’d assume it’s much easier to fit a separate one on a large surface like the iPad has
Edit: google confirms the iPads have a separate USB3 controller
I had a very quick check and I think iPads use an external chip for USB 3 - and there may just not have been space on the iPhone’s logic board for that. I think you’d have to judge it next year - since the base models seem to be using last year’s pro chips - if the base model doesn’t support 3.1 speeds then, something fishy is happening
Or because the base iPhone 15 uses last year’s Pro chip which didn’t have a USB3 controller.
A Raspberry Pi from years ago has USB 3.1. Restricting the latest iPhone is just laughable.

There is no A16 iPad (yet?).
