heise+ | Fünf günstige Office-Notebooks mit USB4 im Test
USB-C-Buchsen mit rasantem USB4/Thunderbolt 4 findet man schon in Notebooks unter 700 Euro. Wir testen fünf solche 16-Zöller mit verschiedenen Prozessoren.

#xkcd's 15th "standard" in a nutshell... #USBC is just another acronym for PITA...
In case you're wondering
- BC 1.2 ( #USB Battery Charging) is USB-Implementers Forum's basic charging protocol from 2010
- PE+ = PumpExpress Plus, Mediatek's exotic own charging protocol
I would test VOOC/Dash detection on my old OP charger but I don't have dash cables anymore... Without the right cable¹, the charger acts like a BC 1.2 5V 1.5A/2.4A charger
 
      
  
                            
                        
                         
      
  
                            
                        
                         
      
  
                            
                        
                         
      
  
                            
                        
                        Reminder that #USB is, and always was, a bad design; as usual for Intel. We had #Firewire, a true bus, and not the worst option of many, polling, like USB. We could have had everything USB-C offers now -- reversible plugs, power-negotiation, multi-protocol -- with Firewire decades ago if USB hadn't taken over. Firewire even had Ethernet-over-Firewire, at 400MBps, fifteen years before Thunderbolt would do the same.
Firewire didn't need a different plug for the computer-side and for the device-side (USB-A & USB-B) because it was a true bus. You could hook any two devices together via a normal Firewire cable and you'd get instant two-way communication. This is how the PS2 did link-play. USB pushed the workload on to the computer. USB-C solves the "who is the host and who is the client?" problem by putting a tiny *computer* into the cable, that's how insane USB has become.
Firewire has been gone so long now that most #Apple #Mac users probably don't even know that you could plug a Mac into another computer via Firewire, power it on holding T and the internal disk drive would appear *as an external HDD* to the other computer.

🆕 blog! “Why don't smart watches use USB-C to recharge?”
It looks like the new Google's Pixel 4 watch comes with yet another incompatible change in charging technology. This is a ridiculous situation.
The original Pixel Watch used one type of wireless charging. Then the Pixel Watch 2 & 3 removed wireless charging and swapped to a different charging mechanism. And…
