Then again, I had never uploaded anything significant onto mine. Except maybe some music, and that was annoying as hell.
Though, here's the catch. Up until iPhone 15 with USB-C, iPhones had USB 2.0. Yes, Lightning is capped at a few megabytes/s. It's faster to transfer files via Wi-Fi than a wire, which is really stupid.

When was the last time you had to copy something so big over to your phone than you could benefit from something speedier than a 300 Mbps wireless connection?
The only use case that comes to my mind is going on a trip, so you might want to take a few TV shows with you — but this usually doesn't happen SUDDENLY!!! On top of that, most people stream movies and they download if for offline use from the network anyway.

One of the reasons I switched to using DAPs instead of listening to music from a phone was transfer speeds. So, if you ask me when was the last time I uploaded music to my player, the answer is a couple of days ago. I threw around 30 gigs of new FLACs there.
@newt
Valid point! But I prefer to just carry about 300 gigs of music with me (200 Gb SD card + some on internal storage) to avoid having to copy things over often. Sure, I throw a new album or two that I definitely want to listen on the go every now and than, but it doesn't happen too often, it's not tens of gigabytes, more like a couple — and this usually gets done in a minute or two — over wireless connection of course, I don't even have to look for a cable.
