Whats the point of speaking that out? Lightning is just a properitary connector that uses USB2 and will only fit in Apple Products; iPods and iPhones for the major part. While USB C is an universal standard with potentially way more... uhm... anything.
sagich dirdochnicht lighting is a better physical connection. it's design allows it to be more robust . usb c still has the pins floating in the center of the socket . making them prone to bending and breaking.
OMG! I went shopping a long time ago. I’m 78 yrs old, and when I don’t understand something, (like my husband explaining why an automobile in a movie doesn’t make that sound, doesn’t explode that way, then goes into the most minute details of how an engine is built), I smile, and think about shopping while I nod my head and pretend to listen. So, when I realized I’m doing the same thing…can’t keep up…I went shopping. Thank you, though. I know you’re good and I’ve watched you before.
It’s not easy doing “only” 5 hours of research and then speaking to us as an expert on a subject. It’s one thing to learn something. It’s quite another to understand it so well that you can discuss it and explain it in a condensed and thorough way. Great job. Subscribed years ago when I found your parody vids, and haven’t looked back.
@@Samlol23_drrich the entire spec is like 150ish pages, first 3 of which are just table of contents, theres lots of diagrams that you wont need unless you're a manufacturer and whatnot, so 5 hrs to do this is.. a waste.
This was very helpful! Unfortunately, the specification is disappointing for the reasons you mentioned. Trying to diagnose incompatibilities, especially for non-technical people is going to be frustrating. Like many people, I was looking forward to the benefits of the physical change, but I think this makes things worse. It would be nice if one of the device ends informed the user about the cable's capabilities or incompatibilities once plugged in.
Joe thanks for trying to simplify the USB c categories. Like you I think the industry should color code the cables and the jacks. I could quite easily see this turning into a hugely confused area for computer and electronic users. And I thought that USB was supposedly trying to make the connectivity issues simpler to use. I'm reminded of the 1980''s when you had to - 1 set dip switches 2- Use special non-standard drivers 3- manually modify autoexec.bat and config.sys files 4- Use only certain pieces of hardware for alleged compatibility 5- use the same memory speed, manufacturer, and manufacturer run to work together.
Its not that complicated. Things to keep in mind: 1. Transfer Speed (2.0, 3.0, 3.1 Gen1, 3.1 Gen2) 2. Power (Power delivery 2.0 and 3.0) 3. Display protocols (display port and thunderbolt) 4. Mode (active or passive) Its amazing how USB can support all those protocols in one thin wire. I think USB standard is the best invention on the planet.
I appreciate you sharing this. I thought I had the latest USB options on my laptop but alas NOT! You saved me from buying a laptop dock that clearly wouldn't have worked. Thank you!
When I was young, engineers worked on simplifying, ergonomics, one size fits all, etc. Now they make things more complicated and call it advanced! When I was young, I could operate the radio and the AC in my car without looking. Modern cars have touchscreens and menus to scroll through to do the same, making you take your eyes off the road. And they call it advanced technology. USB-C would be a great idea if one cable would work on everything, regardless of speed or function - That would be efficient engineering and give a truly advanced product. Right now I use 5 different USB cables for my various devices which all have different connector types. Devices using USB-C cables should be standardized, so your cellphone cable can be used on your digital camera or your external hard drive, your battery charger or whatever. That would be a true technological advance.
This video, the explanation of the Samsung exploding battery video, and many other long ones are probably boring and too long for a large part of the audience to watch, but we really have to appreciate the amount of work joe puts into making these videos, all that time you're learning something new. 5 hours of research, you deserve more views and money! Great work!
surfie007 lmfao tell me why i was jus thinkin the same damn thing like wow he did 2+hours of research for this vid jus for me to be like um lmao i cant fkn tell if ur serious or jus playin😂
Color was a good idea: display USB C = Red, black = standard transfer, blue = high speed USB 3.1 Gen 2, 100W power = green, and ones that support multiple of those have multiples colors like half and half and 1/3 of it is each color
Excellent video! Clear video and audio, short yet complete, to the point, illustrative, future proof, aware of realistic situations, suggesting solutions, preventing confusion. Other youtubers (and ebayers!!) should learn from this form and content.
USB-C is actually very simple.The transdimentional hyperlink helps discombobulate the cubed electrons which are stuck in stasis.Once the thin layer of crystal threaded fibers have their molecules aligned (which obviously keep the angulous in balance with the triangulouscalculational front end) the data and power can do their thang.Or some shit.
Did you know that the man who invented the USB plug has died. At his funeral, they put his coffin into the ground, lifted it back out, turned it over, and put it back in again. 😁
The only gripe I have is in the discussion of power, you completely ignored the different VOLTAGES that the USB-C / Power Delivery supports. It's not just about the Amperage. For example, you mention "3A, 60W up to 5A, 100W." Well, the other side of it is the voltage. If the charger only supports 5 Volts, the absolute maximum power output would be 25W, because 5V * 5A = 25W. And some USB-C cables support higher voltages than others.
OMG thank you for explaining the A,B,C and 2.0, 3.0 etc. I thought I was going crazy trying to understand it all, and you just explained it all in one sentence.
My dad knows this stuff too. So USB C has high speed data transfer. That’s USB C 3.0. I looked up the info, and this is what Google’s AI told me. “USB-C cable can support USB 2.0 speeds, meaning you can find USB-C connectors that only transfer data at the standard USB 2.0 rate of 480 Mbps; essentially, a "USB-C 2.0" cable exists and is primarily used for charging and basic data transfer with slower speeds compared to newer USB-C standards like USB 3.2 or USB 4.0”.
As a nerd; the insane variation already makes my head hurt; I can't imagine how someone like my wife who doesn't give a crap; would ever navigate any of this..
I'm totally impressed with the high standard in preparing your clips - mainly the smart balance between giving a comprehensive idea about the subject in hand and maintaining the entertaining aspect. Expecting you very soon to having PhD in IT filed :)
I just switched from a laptop plus monitor set up that I punched about 11 years ago. It was still very functional and all usb A plugs. The new version of the same set up is all usb c so in buying all new cable/plug inventory I ensured every item could transmit 10 gbs, handle at least 65 watts and have braided cables. I didn’t want any cables or plugs that couldn’t do everything. I checked it all and seems good. The Studio display comes with a Thunderbolt cable to connect the M2 Air so I’m sticking to that for the all important data/power link in one cable. I do use a projector for teaching which needs hdmi so I purchased a cable specifically built to connect Usbc to hdmi. This video was very helpful. Thanks.
Thank you this Most informative video. I have just upgraded my cell phone to Galaxy S9, so I am new to this cable. You explain this plug and power options Very well with plain language, Very thoroughly. I am not sure what these other guys are taking about, but you come across likable and honest. Thank you.
Well done for getting all that information spoken at once so quickly I was impressed! Even reading that lot out from a proper auto-cue would be a major exercise!
I'm a tech guy and research everything unto pain has been endured. You saved me from that so I thank you, great presentation and it was too dumbed down for proficient and tech-historic folk. Keep up the good work, I'm going to check out more of your videos now.
4:13 I suspect that the lower power specification on the mini-USB cable is because there were no devices requiring more power than that using that particular connector.
Hello sir I am from Iran. I can alittle speak&read&writhe English.Thank you very very very much for you're teach. You are a very very good teacher.Excellent.
Backintheday USB was designed to eliminate and supercede parallel ports by going to serial configuration and thus greatly reducing the number of wires needed to perform a function. With USB-C, etc by adding additional wires, the number of choices again sky rockets and the possibility of error is compounded. Greater speed in and of itself means nothing if the wrong functions are being performed.
USB-C with Thunderbolt 3 is very amazing :) Wanna use a external gpu? USB-C Wanna use a fast monitor? USB-C Wanna charge ur device? USB-C Or all together? USB-C (All USB-C with Thunderbolt 3)
Thanks a million ! Just spent over an hour on the phone and gent said it wouldn't matter. Had to double check and found your site., and obviously it does matter !!
If you are using power signals coming out of the computer to deliver signals to components outside of the computer, that is to perform a function in the real world, every part of the output signal must be correct or you risk destroying expensive hardware components or performing incorrect functions that could ultimately have dire physical consequences. The greater the number of wires in the connector, the greater the chance of making a mistake!
You will probably need it to understand it. It says "Universal", but there is nothing universal about it. Every device is going to use a different cable, a different port...
so you actually decided to do real videos instead of making me look like a complete idiot trying to get faster internet with a stick of bubble gum and a penny
So @ThioJoe, this video has been very helpful to all those who are using USB C Cables. Honestly, I agree with you that consumers will be just plain confused because of all the different types of power and speed capabilities, not to mention protocols. Anyhow, Seeing that this is such a well put video, did you happen to find any cables that actually support the "best" or most looked features? (I mean ideally, one would want a USB type C cable that is 3.1 Gen 2 [I.e. Full Featured] with USB PD and cables with desired protocols? (like for example, one that has the correct protocol for Hdmi)?
My biggest gripe with these new "standards" is that it makes self-repair significantly more difficult. Used to be that a laptop charging cable was super easy to fix. Nowadays? Not a chance.. Buy an entirely new charger.. But of course, that's the point of this new "standard". Increased complexity == more $$$ for big tech.
Thank you for the thorough explanation. I had begun to realize there was more and less to this new cable but it made no sense and now I conclude that it will not makes sense but will simply be more complicated. I will have to pay closer attention. That explains why 2 new usb-c cables did not work as expected.
bangs head on table repeatedly. Its hard enough to explain the differences between between usb, thunderbolt etc to customers already. This is going to be a retailer nightmare....
Connecting devices: The final frontier These are the voyages of USB Its 50 year mission To explore strange new worlds To seek out new plugs and new connections To boldly go where no man has gone before It seems the wrong system has won the war of economics.
To Robert Cartier..Yep, Killing the very good Sony Beta-max and the excellent Philips Video-2000!!..and maybe today generation think that me and you are talking Chinese!!
Thanks. I bought a USB type C charger off amazon for my MacBook Pro 2018… the silver tip was long and wouldn’t fit in perfectly. Are all USB type C the same length?
+*Jon Roberts* It was a short-lived cable format used between the dates Feb. 29 and 31, 1942. The connectors were made of used potato chip splinters, and were eventually suspected of having ties with the Communist party, thus falling out of public favor.
firewire is faster than usb 2.0 and was used during the 2000s because of that. usb 3.0 didnt exist yet until like 2010, and usb 2.0 had a max speed of 480Mbps, while firewire could reach speeds 400-800Mbps. so people liked to use firewire because it was faster. the firewire port looks somewhat like a usb port. just look up the port on images and you’ll see
I don't quite get what is described at 2:16 min. into the video, or why? What's different besides the fact that the micro USB (USB-B) side of the cable is USB-C?
A standard where you can plug in the wrong cable and blow up your new $1000 gizmo. Or with a little luck, it just won't communicate. Or charge. Or it does, but slower than it should. But you can always plug it in, that's what counts. USB-C. What a mess.
No it won't blow up anything unless your cable is defective. The connector can identify the capabilities of the cable even if humans can't see it. The most that will happen is it won't work if the cable lack the capability. Basically they give up the old version of different plugs for different function. And just do multiple funtion on one connector that can be cheaper to mass produce. Overtime as manufacturing become cheaper then it will be cheaper for manufacturer to produce one cable with all the function instead of having different production lines for different function. But for now because it is new it is still expensive to unify everything.
Duh ! I just forgot most of what was said here. I must be getting on in the years. The bottom line was clear though. Not all USB C cables are made equal . Like most people I erroneously presumed they were. Thank you!
wow, you communicate sooo well. just the info wo the fluff people think is needed in all aspects of communicating. good job. are you from Connecticut, or at least the Northeast lol? me,Ct.
Wow thanks for explaining that mess, I sorta understood. I have a a question; I have several wireless chargers that have a capacity up to 10W output but only does 5W right now. current cord has one end is that micro USB and other is USB, would switching to a USB C end (micro USB and USB) allow me to use the optimum capacity of the 10W?

Yeah, let's not bring up 8-track tapes and vinyl records or we'll be labeled archeologists!
LOL!
LOL! Yep, I still have those too! Whoa... I really AM old! ;-)
Much thanks for an excellent presentation regarding a very complex issue.
It's an inverted lightning cable.
This is a very bright kid. I'm learning tons from him. Thanx Thio.
what about usb1.0 on usb c
Thanks. I bought a USB type C charger off amazon for my MacBook Pro 2018… the silver tip was long and wouldn’t fit in perfectly. Are all USB type C the same length?
whats firewire

It was a short-lived cable format used between the dates Feb. 29 and 31, 1942. The connectors were made of used potato chip splinters, and were eventually suspected of having ties with the Communist party, thus falling out of public favor.
nakyer
But potatoe chip splinters? that sounds useless. and why communist connection?

You'd really like me to give you that information, wouldn't you?
It was a cable format used from 2000-2008. It was kinda like a old version of Thunderbolt.
firewire is faster than usb 2.0 and was used during the 2000s because of that. usb 3.0 didnt exist yet until like 2010, and usb 2.0 had a max speed of 480Mbps, while firewire could reach speeds 400-800Mbps. so people liked to use firewire because it was faster. the firewire port looks somewhat like a usb port. just look up the port on images and you’ll see
2022 here, checking in and all there is to say is USB-C is FREAKING AWESOME!
Jesus Christ.....just give me a damn cable and cord
What?
I don't quite get what is described at 2:16 min. into the video, or why?
What's different besides the fact that the micro USB (USB-B) side of the cable is USB-C?
A standard where you can plug in the wrong cable and blow up your new $1000 gizmo. Or with a little luck, it just won't communicate. Or charge. Or it does, but slower than it should. But you can always plug it in, that's what counts. USB-C. What a mess.
No it won't blow up anything unless your cable is defective. The connector can identify the capabilities of the cable even if humans can't see it. The most that will happen is it won't work if the cable lack the capability. Basically they give up the old version of different plugs for different function. And just do multiple funtion on one connector that can be cheaper to mass produce. Overtime as manufacturing become cheaper then it will be cheaper for manufacturer to produce one cable with all the function instead of having different production lines for different function. But for now because it is new it is still expensive to unify everything.
I know this is a year old, but still very helpful. Thanks ThioJoe
OMG, now my head hurts! 😣
Gonna have to watch this again! 😳 Oh and brilliant video btw!
I wished I never see this video
More confused than before
Cant people let other people happy with their ignorance
Hahahahaha!😆✌
Me too.. Sooooo many numbers.
Duh ! I just forgot most of what was said here. I must be getting on in the years.
The bottom line was clear though.
Not all USB C cables are made equal . Like most people I erroneously presumed they were.
Thank you!
You've been able to confuse the confused!
😅😅🤣😂🤣
Thanks for the info to clear things up!
I'm now more confused.
wow, you communicate sooo well. just the info wo the fluff people think is needed in all aspects of communicating. good job. are you from Connecticut, or at least the Northeast lol? me,Ct.
Hi
ItzzTies hi
hi
ItzzTies hi :P
hi
2:00 : 3Amps, jet 60 Watts? Does that mean the cable should be able to deliver 20 Volts?
everyone here: first
me:
first
Thanks so much. I'm trying to sort out cables, type C, etc. Invaluable!
5 hours.... ok
SVENDINVÄN doesn't mean at once could be seperate
It would still be 1000 times more research than other people do
Good summary of a complicated issue. Thanks.
God i am so confused right now
Type c is ruining my life
You're all overthinking it.
It's like he's staring into your soul the entire video with those pitch back pupils of his.
But can it run Crysis?
Wow thanks for explaining that mess, I sorta understood. I have a a question; I have several wireless chargers that have a capacity up to 10W output but only does 5W right now. current cord has one end is that micro USB and other is USB, would switching to a USB C end (micro USB and USB) allow me to use the optimum capacity of the 10W?
this guy is a fucking synth
Hi very good video
What is better and faster for note9 pd??? qc2 / 3 ??? or original fast charger????
