USB 2.0 is still not phased out. Manufacturers are still using it for who knows why. It'll be a long time before we see USB4 becoming common and USB 3.1 replacing USB 2.0.

The naming scheme for USB is so ridiculous

yeah, it competes with Asus Zenfone naming convention in the ridiculousness scale.

There are like different versions of Zenfone 2, with completely different specs, apparently Zenfone 6 is weaker than Zenfone 2, and Zenfone 5Z is a flagship ?

I thought you were talking about max pro m1 vs max m1. Zenfone 2 with intel atom processor was an oddity which happened only once & as for 6 vs 5z even apple older gen flagships are sometimes more powerful than next gen lowest end model.

Asus started their mobile series with the model names with a Number to denote the screen size. They were Zenphone 4, Zenphone 5 and Zenphone 6. The next year they launched Zenphone 2 (here 2 indicated the generation and obviously not the screen size).
