USB-C: The future of electronic industry!




Most of us are tired of changing the power adapters since the evolution of technology. We need to switch different adaptors to power up different electronic devices like smartphones, laptops, printers, monitors etc. But what if there was only one adapter which is smart enough to power up heavy duty devices like printers and monitors or to power up low power devices like smartphones, tablets etc. Yes this is possible in 2017 and the years to come.

USB technology has upgraded to a new level, we call it USB 3.1 or simply USB-C or USB type-C. This technology gives us freedom to charge our laptops, smartphone, tablets, power our earphones etc. and can be used to juice up heavy devices. USB-C is already popular in new smartphone devices like Google pixel, Samsung galaxy S8, OnePlus5 and many other flagship devices. Smartphone industry now understands the future of USB-C and is now enhancing the technology to make your life easier. 

Unlike its previous generation, USB-C is reversible. So you can plug it in the right way in first try and every single time. USB-C comes in many variants like Thunderbolt (designed by Intel and made specifically to attach peripherals to a computer), lightening (designed by Apple and made specifically to connect and charge low power accessories like iPhones, iPods, iPads etc.). They all are pioneered by different manufacturers for specific purpose. This makes it more fascinating and makes it universal. This brings the meaning for the name USB that is Universal Serial Bus to life.


USB-C is superfast and can transfer data up to the rate of 10 gigabytes/sec. This enables the use of USB-C on 4k monitors. You may find USB-C port instead of HDMI port in next generation devices. In fact Apple and Google have taken an initiative and have implemented USB-C in their upcoming MacBook and Google’s Chromebook Pixel, which has USB-C ports on either side. They also have an advantage when they serve as headphone jack. Having a USB-C headphone jack can enhance your audio experience. Unlike 3.5mm jacks it doesn’t convert digital signal into analog signal. It plays as they are without altering the signal.  

USB-C plays an important role in the future of Electronic devices. In future we can find USB-C everywhere; it will replace the conventional USB 2.0 and 3.0 connector ports and surely will be used by all Electronic devices manufacturers.

All said, USB-C is definitely a major step in the right direction, and we can’t wait for more companies to start adopting it. It will mean devices with fewer ports, more flexibility, and better data transfer speeds, and even better sound.

Game of Thrones season 7 episode 3 ‘The Queen’s Justice’ review: Fire meets Ice!

Image
Sunday night’s or Monday morning’s (if you live in India) episode of Game of Thrones was a sight for the much awaited meeting of the Mother of Dragons and the King in the North. It was truly a remarkable moment in the show’s history as we’ve been seeing these characters for the past six years in different places, developing their story arcs, & for them to finally meet up is truly a big deal. So the episode started with Jon arriving with Ser Davos at Dragonstone. They were greeted by the council of Daenerys Targaryen as he is re-united with Tyrion Lannister. And after a humorous scene where Missandei rattles off Dany's many titles, to which Ser Davos responds with Jon's introduction: " And this is Jon Snow" adding after a meaningful look from Jon, "King in the North", Jon forewarned Dany about the inevitable attack of the army of the dead which they all were hesitant to believe. Jon told Tyrion about the dragonglass which is required against the

Game of Thrones season 7 episode 4 ‘The Spoils of War’ review: Chaos is a Ladder!

Image
Yesterday’s episode of Game of Thrones should be renamed as The Spoilers of War as half the world had already seen the chaotic episode after the unfortunate leak by some hackers a few days ago. But, we noble fans patiently waited for the genuine episode to air dodging all the spoilers and chit-chat about it and thanks to all the seven gods of Westeros, it was worth the wait! For the last couple of episodes, Cersei has been outsmarting Daenerys and, her faithful hand, Tyrion in their on-going quest for the iron throne. Firstly, the Mother of Dragons lost the Greyjoys and the Sandsnakes due to Euron’s roughshod over them. Then, in the previous episode she also lost Olenna Tyrell who went out in style after drinking the poisonous wine and confessing to Jamie that she was behind his son’s death.
