Suck it micro USB, mini USB, and lightning! 🪫🔋
Now for those swappable batteries
And make all power tool batteries compatible.
USA checking in.
Just bought a new USB-C charging beard trimmer on clearance.
Feels good, man.
Thamks if EU helped.
Kudos to the EU, end the waste.
Please do this for things like rechargeable electric shavers and toothbrushes as well.
Now if only we can standardize cables or at least labeling. We went from everything working wherever it would plugin to everything plugging in but who knows if it will work
Imo they should at the very least standardize some color coding and labeling. All charging-only cables are yellow, data cables are blue. Something like that.
They should specified speeds too. I think Apple gimps usb c charging speeds
Yup I have noticed this with my new iPhone 16 pro.
You plug it in and the charging speed as drastically slower than when I use the new ‘official’ apple wireless mag lock (or whatever it’s called) charger.
Funny how recently as this was unfolding, USBC chargers for certain devices only work for those devices. So yes now we will only have USBC but ones that will only work with the assigned brands
Coming soon on an Amazon: Apple USB-C cable $20.99
And iPhone users will snap them up. My wife would pay quadruple for the logo alone.
“It has to be Apple compatible!”
I should start a business. Hell, Monster fooled everyone for a decade+ with their high prices and “quality”.
Was wiring cable internet for a dude, tugged his Monster cable a bit, end fell off in my hand. My god, the insides were appallingly cheap, fabricated from Chinese whispers and toilet paper. Every element here was as cheap as it gets.
He was a bit upset, a bit surprised. I showed him the differences between the Monster cable and what I was using, made him a new one. Happy camper!
It’s not like Apple hasn’t had USB-C devices for 2 years now … where have you been?
Not touching them with a barge pole
Does this law allow for any standards progression or is it USB-c forever?
If only you didn’t have to pay royalties for using USB.
You do‽ I had no idea. And it’d be great if the standard for USB-C was more than form only.
Praise the EU
Don’t celebrate until the next version of USB comes out. Will this force everyone to adopt the newest version always or cling to the oldest?
Why are you bringing this up like it hasn’t been discussed thousands of times? Like it hasn’t been stated (and cleared) in this very post?
All this… and they decided that everything needs to use a USB type b? Lol 😂 /s
USB-C
