    USB 2.0 is only on the base model which uses the last gen chip. The pro and Max have 10gbos USB 3.0.

      Lol - how.obvious do they want their cashgrab to be? It’s as if they don’t even want to sell the low-spec version and just want people to feel better about the pro

        You’re making this comment as if you aren’t their target though. Im not buying one, but I also don’t get worried I’m such a power user that if I did I would miss out on something.

      As snazzy labs pointed out, the new SOC is called A17 PRO which probably means that next year the baseline models will not get that chip.

      They will probably get just the A17 sans pro, I have a large suspicion that USB 3.X will be exclusive to the pro chips.

      It’s all speculation but it would be a very Apple like thing to do.
