The arrival of USB-C has perfectly solved many problems related to its predecessor. It has a powerful charging function, and its charging capacity can be increased to 100W through the USB-C Power Delivery standard used in smartphones such as Google Pixel and MacBooks. Lightning Harbor. The latest revision of the USB-C connector specification aims to increase this limit to an incredible 240W.

According to Android Central, the USB implementers Forum (also known as USB-IF) revised the specification to 2.1, which was announced on Tuesday. This new feature, which is charged at 240W, is called EPR or extended power range. This means that the USB charging standard will now be able to power many large devices with higher power requirements.

USB-C Power Delivery is faster than the previous USB standard, but the arrival of the new version 2.1 will take charging to a new level. To sum up, devices such as Apple's MacBook may charge 2.4 times faster than future models subject to a 100W charge limit.

In the future, as CNET says, all cables that support up to 240W charging devices will have to display a specific icon to show users that they can run at this ultra-fast charging speed. They may be enough to power power-hungry devices such as game laptops, 4K monitors, laser printers, large mobile power supplies and even electric bicycles.

Because USB-PD is a standard that can be adopted by many vendors (or can be adopted by many vendors), this revision is more important than other quick charging standards developed internally, which are traditionally limited to their own devices. At present, smartphones can be charged at about 120W, so how much USB-PD can speed up the charging speed of mobile devices remains to be seen.
