    No, they tend to use last year’s Pro chip in this year’s base model. The A16 only supported USB 2.0 speeds last year in the iPhone 14 Pro model (despite the iPads showing us that Lightning does support USB 3 speeds), and it’s what’s in this year’s iPhone 15 base model.

    The A17 supports higher speed through the USB Bus, so there’s no reason to hold that back for next year’s base model.
