The USB transfer speed claim is misleading to say the least. The iPhone 15 was already capable of up to 10Gbps transfer speed (USB 3.0 support). You could quibble over the fact that the included cable didn't support that (if only the USB-IF could get its shit together), but to claim the hardware doesn't support it is a lie.
Also, non-US iPhones support both physical SIM and eSIM.
Saying the iPhone 16 hardware only supports 480Mbps is accurate; the iPhone 16 Pro supports USB 3 transfer speeds, however the base iPhone 16 is limited to usb 2.0 speeds. This remains unchanged from the iPhone 15, with the base model topping out at 480Mbps and the Pro at 10Gbps.
I stand corrected.
