Hey everyone! I have an iPhone 14 Pro packed with around 100GB of videos, and I'm trying to figure out the best way to transfer them to my Windows 11 PC so I can free up space on my phone. I've already connected my iPhone to the PC, which is pretty powerful (i7 with RTX and 32GB RAM), but it seems to really struggle with loading the video folders. It takes forever for them to load, and then I have to go through each folder slowly. I know my PC isn't exactly happy about the process. I'm open to spending some money if there's a better, faster way to do this, so any tips would be appreciated!

If your computer is really struggling and you're okay with spending a bit, consider getting a Sandisk Lightning/USB drive. They are reasonably priced and let you copy your videos straight onto the drive. Then you can easily back them up to your PC without the hassle of folder loading issues.
You might want to try logging into iCloud through a browser and downloading your videos from there. It’ll give you a zipped file, which can make things go a bit smoother! Plus, it's a hassle-free way to manage the transfer without dealing with those slow folders.
Instead of digging through the folders, use the Camera Import Assistant on Windows. It’s much easier and should speed things up for you! Just connect your phone, and it should pop up automatically.
