The fight between the European Union and Apple on standardising the charging port as USB-C port has come to an end. According to the latest report, the law passes with 602 votes in favour, 13 against and 8 abstentions. It means that Apple would have to switch from the Lightning port to the USB-C port by 2024.

It seems that the USB Type-C Cable and Connector Specification Revision 2.1 has been launched in collaboration with major manufacturers such as HP, Google, MediaTek, Qualcomm, Samsung, and more. The new specifications come with various improvements including up to 240W power delivery, which allows it to charge electronic devices such as laptops much faster.
