The iPhone has several different file transfer systems in place but a new Apple patent document describes a next-level method that employs laser technology that could enable terabit speeds. Optical transmission is potentially much faster than wired connections due to the physics of light and electricity. File transfers at light speed should be the quickest of all.
Laser communication and data transfer is not a new idea. Space X is planning on setting up similar communication between Starlink
