Trade-offs
- USB-C Apple devices: iPhone 15, newer iPad Pro and iPad Air models use USB-C, not Lightning.
- Long-distance connections: At 0.5 meters, it suits desks and close ranges, not room-to-room setups.
- High-power applications: USB 2.0 bandwidth tops out at 480 Mbps; newer cables support faster standards.
