Does the lightning cable use USB 3 or USB 2?

The cable is stated to be USB 2.0, BUT it will work in a USB 3.0 port. Phone charges and will synch as normal. I have personally noticed a difference in synching speed from a USB 2.0 to 3.0 port. Though user experience will vary.

Based on the way they are branding it simply as USB, it is more than likely just a USB 2.0 connection and not a USB 3.0 cable.
