Hi folks,
Quick question: I have the state of the art hardware from Apple. A 2017 15" Macbook pro maxed out and an iPhone 7. Duing the backup process of the iPhone onto the MBP, through a USB-C to Lighting cable, I saw speeds that maxed to 40MB/s or so.
Considering that the flash of both the Mac, and the iPhone are much faster than that, why is the copy speed so low, even considering the overhead and stuff like that?
Beats X, iOS 10.3.3
AFAIK, iDevices connect over USB 2 speeds. Only the 12.9” iPad Pro could use USB 3.
You might actually get faster iTunes backup speeds using Wi-Fi than cable.

Correct 😟 Bummer it negoicates USB 2.0 speeds. That means that iDevices have a USB2.0 controller on the iPhone lighning connector... So stupid!
Are you sure? How can they not upscale once USB 3 has been detected...makes 0 sense!
Why is the transfer speed so low for iTunes data backups?
