USB 3.1 Ships in Laptops, USB Dev Days, Charging Safety, USB 3.1 Chip Prices-October 21, 2015 |
I’m super excited to report that USB 3.1 Gen 2 is now shipping (will be shipping soon) in laptops. Yes Laptops! This is about 6 months before I expected it to happen.
You’ll now find it in MSI, Gigabyte, Acer, and Lenovo models.
These 4 laptops all appear to use the Alpine Ridge chip which uses / supports the Type C connector and the 10 Gbps USB 3.1 Gen 2 speeds.
Which is pretty cool.
