Amazon's Fire TV Ethernet Adapter Promises Gigabit—But USB 2.0 Keeps Speeds in Check

Amazon’s new Fire TV Ethernet Adapter uses a USB-C connector and is marketed for gigabit speeds with the Fire TV Stick HD (2nd Gen), but the stick’s likely USB 2.0 port caps real-world performance to about 350 Mbps, even though the adapter and Ethernet spec support more. The hardware details for the 2nd-gen stick aren’t published, suggesting future Fire TV models with USB 3.x could unlock true gigabit speeds; for now, the upgrade mainly future-proofs the lineup while keeping current speeds limited by the stick’s USB interface.

Debunking iPhone 15 USB-C Rumors: It's Standard and Disappointing

Contrary to rumors, Apple has indirectly confirmed that the USB-C port in the iPhone 15 models is 100% standard and does not require Apple-certified cables or accessories. The port works fine with all existing USB 3 and USB-PD compliant cables, chargers, and accessories. Apple has updated compatibility tables for existing Mac and iPad USB-C chargers and cables to state that they are also compatible with the iPhone 15. While you'll still need cables with the necessary capabilities for specific features, such as 10Gbps data transfer speeds, you won't need to pay an Apple tax for MFi cables.
