Take any usb-c charger, plug it in and it will charge. We just covered 90% of use cases.
Beyond that:
old phone: slow data transfer.
new phone: faster data transfer but still slower then computer.
So very confusing.
Not old vs new phones. Anything not Pro is 2.0.
480Mbps ought to be enough for anybody.
Except for <list all usecases that emerged since 2015 or so>
I'm just joking - it was a reference to the famous Bill Gates quote (that he didn't actually say) about 640k of RAM being enough.
