    EU Mandates USB-C Charging for New Laptops Effective Today

    The European Union’s directive requiring uniform charging ports for new laptops has come into effect, concluding a lengthy transition period.

    This regulation mandates that all laptops with a power consumption of up to 240 watts must be compatible with USB-C charging. Previously, many laptops utilized proprietary charging cables, necessitating the use of original power adapters. While mobile phones and smaller electronic devices have already transitioned to standardized ports, variations in USB-C cable power transfer capabilities may still result in slower charging for laptops when using smartphone chargers.
