The Universal Serial Bus is getting a redesign, kids! Yes, that’s right. You know how every time you try to plug a USB into a port, you put it in upside down? Yeah, you don’t have to deal with that problem anymore.
This, from The Verge:
Intended to replace both USB and Micro USB with one universal standard, Type-C looks to be pretty much the same size as Apple’s proprietary Lightning cable, which has a similar reversible design. With support for USB 3.1, the new cables will offer bandwidth of up to 10Gbps, though their biggest benefit will surely be in eliminating the frustration of trying to plug devices in the right way round. The design and the full spec have not been fully settled yet, but the USB Implementers Forum is confident enough in its current plans to release these images illustrating what can be expected.
This is what they’re going for:
