The new MacBook released not long ago has attracted great attention. Among them, the design of only a built-in USB Type C interface has caused a lot of discussion. Critics and analysts generally believe that a single interface design will be the design trend of portable notebook computers in the future, and USB Type C is the key technology. In fact, USB Type C is an interface form of USB 3.1. So, what positive impact will the new connection standard have on the device experience?

What is USB 3.1?

As the next generation transmission standard, USB 3.1 is called "SuperSpeed+", has a transmission rate of 10Gbps, has Type-A (Standard-A), Type-B (Micro-B) and Type-C three connection interfaces, and provides With the 20V/5A power supply standard, the transmission and power supply performance is more powerful.

Let your phone charge faster

As the power supply standard is increased to 20V/5A, 100W power, USB 3.1 can greatly increase the charging speed of the device, and at the same time it can also power higher-power devices such as notebooks, projectors and even TVs. This is why the new MacBook only needs A built-in USB Type C can meet the power supply and transmission requirements.

Higher data transmission speed

Since USB 3.1 supports a transmission rate of up to 10Gbps, it will greatly increase the transmission speed of mobile phones, which is very beneficial to the development of mobile phones. For example, more and more mobile phones begin to support 4K video shooting, and video files are larger, and faster data transmission speeds are necessary.

Support display output

At present, HDMI is a commonly used interface standard for TVs and display products. Although there is a mini version, no mobile phones have built-in this interface, because it will increase the cost and volume. Since USB 3.1 supports display output, it is more suitable as an output interface for mobile devices, especially the reversible Type-C.

Versatility

Obviously, a universal interface is required for small devices such as mobile phones and tablets, and can greatly improve the connectivity of the devices. From the current point of view, Type-C in USB 3.1 is most likely to become the future connection standard, providing integrated connection solutions such as data transmission, peripheral connection, and display output. Obviously, the future market for TYPE-C data cables is unacceptable. Jinlai cable manufacturers are also increasing their efforts to keep up with the trend.
