    USB-C is the physical form. Does it actually dictate USB3?

        Speak for yourself, there are still many who refuse to use subscription services for music and still store it on their phones

            Why wouldn’t we? I’ve got 300, 400GB of music from my beloved private trackers (RIP WCD) but I choose iOS because of the privacy policy, longevity, and I don’t wanna have to fuck around with custom OSes to not give all my data to Google.

            My shit’s loaded up with music, and I’m hoping the next gen has 2TB models.

        Lol, I’m sorry but this is just you thinking everyone is like you. Millions of people use their phones very differently.

        This is absolutely wrong. The spec mandates that USB-C ports provides at least USB 3.1 support. Also USB-C is mandated for USB 3.1.

        So to be compliant every USB-C port must support USB 3.1 at least. And you cannot support USB 3.1 with anything other than a USB-C port.

          Is what your comment did.

          The connector is a usb-c connector. That is not the standard, just the connector type friend

              Literally the second sentence in your own source:

              The designation C refers only to the connector’s physical configuration or form factor and should not be confused with the connector’s specific capabilities, which are designated by its transfer specifications (such as USB 3.2).

              Ok. Since we’re circumcising a mosquito here.

              The type c designation only refers to the form factor.

              That’s all.

              Type c does not refer to its capabilities.

              I am willing to bet you’ll find that information very early in what you linked me.

          He’s right though?

          USB-C does NOT in any way specify capabilities or transfer specifications. It only specifies the form factor of the plug.

          The plug can be used for any number of things from USB2.0 or ThunderBolt4, to power transfer, hells, even things like analog audio can use the plug.

          Could you elaborate? Because I’m like… 90% you’re wrong. Oc is correct. The “c” in type c referred to the connector. Just like micro-b mini-b usb A,etc. USB 3 is the speed standard. As well as 3.1 (or 3.2 gen 1 it’s called now or some other silliness), 3.2 gen 2, etc.

          There are usb C cables that can do video, audio, some that have thunderbolt speeds. There are also usb c cables that only support usb 2.0. So if you can elaborate on why you believe otherwise, id appreciate it. the usb consortium has ridiculous conventions and I’m no hardware specialist. My knowledge on these is from USB consortiums training when I was a salesman.
