I was watching the announcement yesterday and afterwards I was trying to recollect what cool new feature there was, I had to rewatch it because I fell asleep, but even then I couldn't find anything. They should thank the EU that they at least can talk about the difference between USB2 and USB3 speeds.

Lightning was already capable of USB 3 speeds. The OG iPad Pro had it.
They just never brought it over to their phones/cheaper ipads.
I just miss all the backwards comparability Jobs used to maintain. When he was driving the bus, he may have been a complete asshole, but he made sure a 12 year old mac computer could still work with the new tech, as best as it could.
Snow Leopard was the last, glorious OSX that was secure (enough), and very malleable.
Now? I want to dump their whole ecosystem.
It died long before Steve Jobs did. Steve straight up fought tooth and nail to keep superior emerging technologies like OLED off new iPhone's.
Apple fans are delusional, the iPhone has always don't tiny ass incremental changes. This is par for the course.
Apple has n't made anything impressive and quite a long time
Leave it to Apple to release a new iPhone with intentionally outdated, hamstrung technology just to upsell more expensive models.
My 2013 Samsung had usb 3, used a special micro USB 3 cable but still.
