Because there's a human scale to things at the end of the day. It's why we will probably never need 16k resolution for phones - the human eye can only see so many pixels.
iPhone 15 max storage configuration is 512 GB. So you can transfer the entirety of the phone in 10 minutes. Plug it in, have a coffee and come back. Is it changing anyone's life if it can be done in 90 seconds instead? How often do you need to transfer the entirety of your phone storage?
edit: math was indeed wrong, it takes about 2 hours. But like okay, is that too long?
- pritambaral 3y agoUSB 2.0 speed: 480 Mbps (mega bits per second). 512 GB (giga bytes) = 512 * 8 Gb (giga bits) Time required to transfer 512 GB at sustained max USB 2.0 speed: 512 * 8 * 1024 / (480 * 60) minutes. That's 145 minutes. About 2.4 hours.
- soraminazuki 3y agoThat's a meaningless number. When was the last time you saw anyone even attempting to transfer hundreds of gigabytes of data using their phones? Do data hoarders now see their phones as some ideal NAS or what?
- Damogran6 3y agoTypically twice...the last time you back up your old phone and the first time you restore to your new phone. I've had good luck with the bottom storage level for years...until I bought a 360 GoPro...seriously huge filesizes.
- TheHappyOddish 3y agoI did it last week and do it regularly. My (full) 512GB iPhone takes 40+ hours to transfer over USB, I presume to to lots of small files.
- gretch 3y agoYou're right about the math. I misread the spec But at the same time, I don't really yield my point. 2 hours - just plug it in at night and it's done in the morning. We routinely do things where we plug in a phone for 2 hours
