My iPhone 7 supports sync over WiFi. I've never benchmarked it, but I'd expect the speed to be better than USB 2.

Only if you want to use iCloud, no? Or maybe I just wasn’t able to use that at the time because I was on hotel WiFi.

Are new iPhones really doing usb 2 over usb-c?

I don't think it was using iCloud. It would show up in iTunes (haven't used my Mac much since iTunes got split up) and I could drag files around from some applications and back it up to my local drive (in addition to the iCloud backups).
