The only thing apple can really do to push the platform forward is to allow people to dock their phone and use it as a desktop.
But they are not doing this because it will hurt their laptop and desktop sales.
They also don’t want to let people sideload. They know that people will not want to use a washed down desktop version because people don’t like using the washed down iPadOS desktop version.
This will be tough when the USB interface is still using USB 2.0.
Even the USB 2.0 phones support DisplayPort 4K 60Hz/HDR https://www.macrumors.com/2023/09/13/all-iphone-15-models-support-displayport/
Sure, 3.0 would be better for transferring files, but I’m personally not transferring stuff like this.
I do t expect apple to even do this for year anyway. Maybe that’s when I’ll do my next upgrade.
