  • As you probably know, this is USB-C, but what you may not know is that it's about to get more powerful, way more powerful.
  • An upgrade is coming in the second half of 2021 that'll let USB-C deliver 240 watts of electrical power.
  • That's nearly two and a half times more than today's 100 watt maximum.
  • The more powerful version of USB-C is gonna work with a lot of new devices.
  • Probably the first is going to be gaming laptops.
  • These are big, beefy, powerful laptops that need a lot of juice to run their GPUs and big screens.
  • The best thing about this new high power USB-C is you'll be able to banish a whole bunch of proprietary charging cables, just stick them in the junk drawer.
  • You'll be able to charge all kinds of new electronics wherever you find USB port, hotel, car, office, airport.
  • You've certainly heard of USB charging, which was first introduced in 1995 and now it's everywhere, but you might not know exactly what USB-C is.
  • It's a new oval-shaped connector that first arrived in 2015.
  • One of its biggest benefits, there's no right side up or wrong side up, so you don't have to fiddle when you're plugging in the cable.
  • Another big benefit, it works on both laptops and phones, so you don't need separate charging cables.
  • And also, it takes a lot more power, so you can charge laptops, not just phones.
  • The first version of USB-C handled up to 100 watts.
  • That's pretty good.
  • It's enough for a 16-inch MacBook Pro.
  • That's the top of the line laptop from Apple.
  • But lots of devices need more power than a mainstream laptop.
  • The biggest category is gaming laptops, but also you could see high-power USB working for all-in-one desktops like an iMac.
  • I also have a docking station in my office.
  • All kinds of things plug into it, but it needs a proprietary power charger right now.
  • It can also work for 4K monitors and external storage systems.
  • These are really common peripherals that a lot of people have to plug in.
  • High-power USB-C is not for everything, though, like gaming rigs, big desktop towers.
  • They take way more power than 240 watts.
  • But when I was talking to members of the standards group that charts the future for USB-C, it's pretty clear they have pretty high hopes for this higher-power version of the standard.
  • They think it's gonna spread it to a lot more devices like power strips and power outlets in your wall.
  • You'll be surprised to see more USB-C in your cars, too.
  • USB began as a way to transfer data, so you could plug in mice or keyboards or printers into your PC. But these days, its ability to send power is just as important.
