Anecdote: My wife and I both got the 15 pro recently. At the apple store they had to run an update. My wife’s phone started updating minutes before mine with a regular sized cable. They brought over another identical laptop with a much larger chunky cable to update my phone. Mine finished first. I don’t know what cables they use at the apple store but that was a close to controlled conditions as you get with two new phones updating from the same type of laptop with the only difference being the cable.

For example, the iPhone update anecdote could be caused by USB-C 2.0 vs. 3.0 (3.0 supports faster data transfer).
