          Anonymous, 07 Oct 2016Not cool Apple. If I'm throwing hundreds of dollars at you,... moreNothing to do with Apple http://www.howtogeek.com/248827/why-are-smaller-ssds-slower/

          It's feature for all the SSD memory, same with computers.

          "Larger SSDs are faster because they use more Channels in parallel while smaller ones only use a few channels (4 instead of 8):"

          This same was with iPhone 6s already but clearly no-one never noticed it, because well in normal usage you probably wont notice the difference unless you do something this heavy what gsmarena tried it with video.

              Not cool Apple. If I'm throwing hundreds of dollars at you, there is no reason to cheap out. Not happy.

                        Apple always exaggerate things by using cheap components

                            I see MemoryGate in your future...

                              You are storing it wrong.

                                That is because The slowness will make people feel they have more than 32gb inside XD
